can you add support of QAT in official LZ4 and Zstd library ? in that way is more simple for application that support natively this library to be accelerated.

Hi, for the Zstd native support, we currently have QAT-ZSTD-Plugin(lz4s + postprocessing) as a sequence producer. In the future, we may will try to support native zstd library. We have no plan for native lz4 support because there is no customer demand. If your company/business needs this feature, please submit this request to our sales or market. @daweiq do you have more comments?

lz4 is very used... all database that use compression on the fly use lz4... because of there ratio perf/compression... is more simple to integrate your hardware to add support of in already known library than developp sdk for use your hardware...

and if you want your technolgie more used you need to make available on major compression library...
