Hi,

since kernel 3.2 there is a new parallelized variant of twofish
available via

CONFIG_CRYPTO_TWOFISH_X86_64_3WAY

How can I use it with LUKS/dmcrypt? My current config contains the
following:

# CONFIG_CRYPTO_TWOFISH is not set
CONFIG_CRYPTO_TWOFISH_COMMON=y
CONFIG_CRYPTO_TWOFISH_X86_64=y
CONFIG_CRYPTO_TWOFISH_X86_64_3WAY=y

How should these options be set up properly?

You cannot set directly which version is used through dmcrypt interface,
(without patching kernel source) but cryptoAPI should detect the fastest
algorithm automatically.

For separate modules, force load just that module and unload all other
should perhaps work as well (before crypto device activation).

(see /proc/crypto and lsmod modules reference count to check which one
is really used)
