Compression Acceleration

NVIDIA® BlueField® networking platforms (DPUs or SuperNIC) support high-speed compression acceleration. This feature allows the host to offload multiple compression/decompression jobs to BlueField.

Compress-class operations are supported in parallel to the net, vDPA, and RegEx class operations.

The compression application can run either from the host or Arm.
