Description: (RW) Reports the current configuration of the QAT device.
Write to the file to change the configured services.
The values are:
* sym;asym: the device is configured for running crypto
services
* dc: the device is configured for running compression services
It is possible to set the configuration only if the device
is in the `down` state (see /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BDF>/qat/state)
The following example shows how to change the configuration of
a device configured for running crypto services in order to
run data compression::
# cat /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BDF>/qat/state
up
# cat /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BDF>/qat/cfg_services
sym;asym
# echo down > /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BDF>/qat/state
# echo dc > /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BDF>/qat/cfg_services
# echo up > /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BDF>/qat/state
# cat /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BDF>/qat/cfg_services
dc
