[Bug 2048895] [NEW] [needs-packaging] Intel quickassist (QAT) : qatlib

[Hector CAO]

Public bug reported:

Intel(R) QuickAssist Technology (Intel(R) QAT) provides hardware
acceleration for offloading security, authentication and compression
services from the CPU, thus significantly increasing the performance and
efficiency of standard platform solutions.

Its services include symmetric encryption and authentication, asymmetric
encryption, digital signatures, RSA, DH and ECC, and lossless data
compression.

This package provides user space libraries that allow access to Intel(R)
QuickAssist devices and expose the Intel(R) QuickAssist APIs and sample
codes.
