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

[Simon Chopin]

Hi Hector,

Reviewing brand new packages is usually a fairly involved task, much
more so than updates to existing packages. As such, it is much
preferable that a Canonical engineer with suitable upload permissions
schedule some time explicitly for this task as part of their workload,
rather than using the community sponsorship queue. For instance, you (or
your manager) could either find a MOTU or Core Dev in your team to do
so, or get in touch with relevant Ubuntu Engineering teams.

Unsubscribing ubuntu-sponsors.

Title:
  [needs-packaging] Intel quickassist (QAT) : qatlib

Status in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  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.
