Write to the file to change the configured services.
- The values are:
+ One or more services can be enabled per device.

+ (qat_6xxx) denotes applicability exclusively to that device series.

- services
- * dc: the device is configured for running compression services
+ The available services include:
+
+ * sym: Configures the device for symmetric cryptographic operations.
+ * asym: Configures the device for asymmetric cryptographic operations.
+ * dc: Configures the device for compression and decompression
+ operations.
+ * dcc: Similar to dc, but with the additional dc chaining feature
+ enabled, cipher then compress (qat_6xxx), hash then compression.
+ If this is not required choose dc.
+ * decomp: Configures the device for decompression operations (qat_6xxx).
+
+ Service combinations are permitted for all services except dcc.
+ On QAT GEN4 devices (qat_4xxx driver) a maximum of two services can be
+ combined and on QAT GEN6 devices (qat_6xxx driver ) a maximum of three
+ services can be combined.
+ The order of services is not significant. For instance, sym;asym is
+ functionally equivalent to asym;sym.

+ If idle support is enabled the device will transition to the `MIN` power state when

+Description:
+ (RW) This attribute provides a way for a user to query a
+ specific ring pair for the type of service that it is currently
+ configured for.
+
+ When written to, the value is cached and used to perform the
+ read operation. Allowed values are in the range 0 to N-1, where
+ N is the max number of ring pairs supported by a device. This
+ can be queried using the attribute qat/num_rps.
+
+ A read returns the service associated to the ring pair queried.
+
+ The values are:
+
+ * dc: the ring pair is configured for running compression services
+ * sym: the ring pair is configured for running symmetric crypto
+ services
+ * asym: the ring pair is configured for running asymmetric crypto
+ services
