This repository contains the source code to test, maintain and update the GenWQE PCIe card.
Furthermore a zlib version with hardware acceleration is provided to do zlib
style compression/decompression according to RFC1950, RFC1951 and RFC1952. This
can be used as alternative to the traditional software zlib.

This package depends on a specific PCIe3 FPGA Accelerator Adapter. You can
