doca-sha-offload-engine
From the author
Use this skill when wiring the DOCA SHA Offload Engine (an OpenSSL ENGINE) into an existing OpenSSL pipeline to offload one-shot SHA-1, SHA-256, or SHA-512 (EVP_Digest) onto DOCA SHA hardware without rewriting against doca-sha. Covers engine load mechanics (`openssl engine dynamic`, `set_pci_addr` ctrl, `-engine_impl`), the SHA-224 negative test that proves offload engaged, the message-size window where offload beats CPU SHA, and engine-vs-library selection. Trigger even when the user does not say "DOCA SHA Offload Engine" or "OpenSSL ENGINE" — typical implicit phrasings: "speed up openssl SHA on BlueField", "offload SHA without code changes", "is openssl using the accelerator or falling back to software", "prove DOCA SHA actually ran", "openssl dgst hashed but I'm not sure it was offloaded". Refuse and route elsewhere for new SHA pipelines (use doca-sha), MD5 / SHA-3 / SHA-224 / HMAC-SHA offload, incremental hashing via chained `EVP_DigestUpdate`, or OpenSSL PROVIDER authoring.

- doca-shaNVIDIA/skillsUse this skill when the user is doing hands-on DOCA SHA programming — offloading SHA-1, SHA-256, or SHA-512 hashing onto a BlueField DPU or ConnectX accelerator, picking between one-shot `doca_sha_task_hash` and incremental `doca_sha_task_partial_hash`, querying `doca_sha_cap_*` for algorithm support and min destination / max source buffer sizes, setting source / destination `doca_mmap` permissions, or decoding DOCA_ERROR_* returns from the SHA API. Trigger even when the user does not explicitly mention "DOCA SHA" or "doca_sha_task" — typical implicit phrasings include "hash a multi-GiB file on the DPU", "offload SHA-256 to the BlueField", "streaming hash over chunks", "partial hash returns BAD_STATE", "destination buffer too small for digest", or "is SHA-512 available on this card". Refuse and route elsewhere for general cryptographic-hash theory (collision resistance, SHA-3 selection), other DOCA crypto libraries (AES-GCM, Compress, DMA), or DOCA install / BFB bring-up — those belong to other skills.Finance★ 3.7K
- doca-flow-dpa-providerNVIDIA/skillsUse this skill when the user is doing hands-on DOCA Flow DPA Provider work — exporting a `doca-flow` pipe or external resource (index-selector/memory) into BlueField DPA address space so a DPACC-built kernel can read counters, mutate hash-pipe entries, and update/read memory or index-selector resources inline with Flow. Covers per-port `doca_flow_dpa_ctx`, three queue types (general/resources-write/resources-read), the order-sensitive export handshake (`_export_prepare` → add entries → `_export` → `_get_device_addr`), and DPA-side device API. Trigger even when the user does not say "DOCA Flow DPA Provider" — implicit phrasings include "DPA kernel never sees entries in the exported pipe", "BAD_STATE from `_pipe_export`", "how do I disable a hash entry from a DPA kernel", "DPA memory read returns no value", or "DPA-side post keeps returning AGAIN". Refuse and route elsewhere for `doca-flow` pipe construction, generic host-side DPA (`doca-dpa`), or DPA-side kernel-writing — those belong to other skills.Writing★ 3.7K
- doca-compressNVIDIA/skillsHardware compression offload with DOCA Compress on a BlueField DPU, ConnectX NIC, or host: DEFLATE compress and decompress, plus LZ4 decompress (stream and block; LZ4 encode is NOT supported), instead of CPU zlib / zstd. Trigger on "offload this gzip", "decompress incoming network data on the NIC", "compress task returns INVALID_VALUE on alloc_init", "submitted a task but no completion arrives", or "decompress LZ4 on the BlueField", even without naming DOCA Compress. Covers enabling compress-deflate, decompress-deflate, decompress-lz4-stream and decompress-lz4-block tasks on a doca_compress context, sizing source / destination doca_buf against the per-task cap query, mmap permissions, offload vs CPU decisions, a round-trip smoke, and DOCA_ERROR_* from Compress calls. Refuse and route elsewhere for zstd / Snappy / brotli, LZ4 encode (a CPU LZ4 library), pure mmap-to-mmap copies (doca-dma), or DOCA Core lifecycle internals.Productivity★ 3.7K
- doca-telemetry-exporterNVIDIA/skillsUse this skill when the user is doing hands-on DOCA Telemetry Exporter programming on a host where DOCA is installed — defining a doca_telemetry_exporter_schema and event types, creating sources, picking a publish surface (typed events / opaque events / the metrics counter-gauge-histogram API / OTLP logs / NetFlow), walking the schema-then-source lifecycle, or debugging DOCA_ERROR_* failures from the exporter API. Trigger even when the user does not explicitly mention "DOCA Telemetry Exporter" or "doca_telemetry_exporter_*" — typical implicit phrasings include "publishing counters from my DOCA app", "BAD_STATE when I report an event", "consumer/DTS sees nothing but my report succeeded", "how do I export NetFlow/IPFIX records", or "should I link the exporter or the telemetry service". Refuse and route elsewhere for the receiving DOCA Telemetry Service (DTS), plain stdout logging via doca_log, or real-time event subscription back into the app via doca-comch — those belong to other skills.Engineering★ 3.7K
- slang-shader-engineergithub/awesome-copilotUse when working with Slang shaders, shader modules, HLSL-compatible GPU code, graphics pipelines, compute shaders, tessellation, ray tracing, parameter blocks, generics, interfaces, capabilities, cross-compilation, shader optimization, shader review, or C++ engine integration for Slang. Trigger on any mention of Slang, .slang files, slangc, SPIR-V from Slang, Slang modules, [shader("compute")], [shader("vertex")], or requests to write/review/refactor shader code with modern language features. Also trigger for Slang-to-HLSL/GLSL/Metal/CUDA cross-compile questions, or when the user says "shader" alongside "generics", "interfaces", "parameter blocks", "autodiff", or "capabilities".Writing★ 40.3K
- doca-bench-extensionNVIDIA/skillsUse this skill when the operator is authoring, building, loading, or debugging a custom doca-bench plug-in — a versioned shared library with DOCA_EXPERIMENTAL-marked C entry points that doca-bench loads to measure a workload class its built-in modes do not cover, with doca_bench_cuda as the shipped reference exemplar. Trigger even when the user does not say "doca-bench-extension" or "doca_bench_cuda" — typical implicit phrasings include "no built-in doca-bench mode fits my workload", "how do I benchmark a CUDA GPUNetIO RX/TX kernel", "doca-bench cannot find or load my custom .so", "extension exported symbols do not match what the parent expects", "soversion mismatch after a DOCA upgrade", or "my GPU kernel hangs because stop_flag was never set". Refuse and route elsewhere for questions about which built-in doca-bench mode to pick, DOCA GPUNetIO programming semantics, CUDA toolkit installation, or contributor work on in-tree extensions — those belong to other skills.Engineering★ 3.7K
