Hello,

I just compiled cryptsetup-1.6.2 on a machine with AES-NI. During the
compilation there were some tests. The lines of the output when the
issue occurred were:

REQUIRED CIPHERS TEST
#  Algorithm | Key |  Encryption |  Decryption
     aes-cbc   256b   975.0 MiB/s  2037065.0 MiB/s
     aes-lrw   384b  103909.0 MiB/s  158691.0 MiB/s
     aes-xts   512b  1731833.0 MiB/s  1681613.0 MiB/s
 twofish-cbc   256b   241.3 MiB/s   499.5 MiB/s
 twofish-lrw   384b   448.6 MiB/s   453.0 MiB/s
 twofish-xts   512b   497.0 MiB/s   496.0 MiB/s
 serpent-cbc   256b   108.5 MiB/s   351.3 MiB/s
 serpent-lrw   384b   333.7 MiB/s   333.0 MiB/s
 serpent-xts   512b   363.3 MiB/s   341.0 MiB/s
blowfish-cbc   256b   129.6 MiB/s   500.5 MiB/s
des3_ede-cbc   192b    34.3 MiB/s    35.4 MiB/s
   cast5-cbc   128b   121.9 MiB/s   474.0 MiB/s

when these tests ran did all cores process or just 1 single core ?

For aes-cbc, aes-lrw and aes-xts just one core was used (and maxed out).
However, it took orders of magnitudes longer.

do you know if cryptsetup can take advantage of multi threading on multi
core processors ?

No.


The tests for aes-cbc, aes-lrw and aes-xts took very long (nearly one hour for all three combined) on a Intel Core i5-4670K. All other tests
were finished in a few seconds.

Is this wanted behavior?

Best regards,
Christian Weinz
