Crypto accelerators for dm (luks) speedup

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi!

I want to get a crypto accelerator -- the soekris vpn1411 [1] --  card
for my arm-based thecus n2100, running debian. There is a driver for the
chip -- a hifn 7955 -- in the kernel. 

The goal I want to achieve is to increase throughput for the dm-(luks)
encrypted storage.

So the question is, does the dm-mapper use hw-crypto-cards if available?
Has anyone experiene with this card?

Any other pitfalls you are aware off?

Thanks!
Tobi
