In particular, the hardware interface to program keyslots uses the CQE registers, as does the hardware interface to assign keyslots and DUNs to particular read/write requests. So my understanding is that eMMC inline encryption isn't compatible with eMMC commands being issued in ways other than the hardware CQE, such as via the HSQ (host software queue) feature, or via "packed requests". So those features can't be enabled in combination with inline encryption. - Eric
