+UADK Acceleration for Compression
+===============================================
+
+UADK is a framework for applications to access hardware accelerators in a
+unified, secure, and efficient way. UADK is comprised of UACCE, libwd and many
+other algorithm libraries.
+
+See `Compressor UADK Support`_.
+
+
+UADK in the Software Stack
+==========================
+
+UADK is a general-purpose user space accelerator framework that uses shared
+virtual addressing (SVA) to provide a unified programming interface for hardware
+acceleration of cryptographic and compression algorithms.
+
+UADK includes Unified/User-space-access-intended Accelerator Framework (UACCE),
+which enables hardware accelerators that support SVA to adapt to UADK.
+
+Currently, HiSilicon Kunpeng hardware accelerators have been registered with
+UACCE. Through the UADK framework, users can run cryptographic and compression
+algorithms using hardware accelerators instead of CPUs, freeing up CPU computing
+power and improving computing performance.
+
+A user can access the hardware accelerators by performing user-mode operations on
+the character devices, or the use of UADK can be done via frameworks that have
+been enabled by others including UADK support (for example, OpenSSL* libcrypto*,
+DPDK, and the Linux* Kernel Crypto Framework).
+
+See `OpenSSL UADK Engine`_.
+
+UADK Environment Setup
+======================
+UADK consists of UACCE, vendors’ drivers, and an algorithm layer. UADK requires the
+hardware accelerator to support SVA, and the operating system to support IOMMU and
+SVA. Hardware accelerators from different vendors are registered as different character
+devices with UACCE by using kernel-mode drivers of the vendors.

+
+Configuration
+=============
+
+#. Kernel Requirement
+
+User needs to make sure that UACCE is already supported in Linux kernel. The kernel version
+should be at least v5.9 with SVA (Shared Virtual Addressing) enabled.
+
+UACCE may be built as a module or built into the kernel. Here's an example to build UACCE
+with hardware accelerators for the HiSilicon Kunpeng platform.
+
+    .. prompt:: bash $
+
+       CONFIG_IOMMU_SVA_LIB=y
+       CONFIG_ARM_SMMU=y
+       CONFIG_ARM_SMMU_V3=y
+       CONFIG_ARM_SMMU_V3_SVA=y
+       CONFIG_PCI_PASID=y
+       CONFIG_UACCE=y
+       CONFIG_CRYPTO_DEV_HISI_QM=y
+       CONFIG_CRYPTO_DEV_HISI_ZIP=y
+
+Make sure all these above kernel configurations are selected.
+
+#. UADK enablement
+If the architecture is aarch64, it will automatically download the UADK source code to build
+the static library. If it runs on other architecture, user can enable it with build parameters
+`-DWITH_UADK=true`
+
+#. Manual Build UADK
+As the above paragraph shows, the UADK is enabled automatically, no need to build manually.
+For developer who is interested in UADK, you can refer to the below steps for building.
+
+   .. prompt:: bash $ 
+
+      git clone https://github.com/Linaro/uadk.git
+      cd uadk
+      mkdir build
+      ./autogen.sh
+      ./configure --prefix=$PWD/build
+      make
+      make install
+
+   .. note:: Without –prefix, UADK will be installed to /usr/local/lib by default.
+   If get error:"cannot find -lnuma", please install the `libnuma-dev`
+
+#. Configure
+
+   Edit the Ceph configuration file (usually ``ceph.conf``) to enable UADK
+   support for *zlib* compression::
+
+         uadk_compressor_enabled=true
+
+   The default value in `global.yaml.in` for `uadk_compressor_enabled` is false.
