AES Crypto Support in Kernel

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

 



Shirish,
Does the recent crypto merge to kernel, which includes these two
patches for example, help you (at least on the more common chips,
those with optimized AES offload support)?  Wonder if we can leverage
the hardware offload in Samba?

    crypto: aesni_intel - add more optimized XTS mode for x86-64

    Add more optimized XTS code for aesni_intel in 64-bit mode, for
smaller stack
    usage and boost for speed.

    tcrypt results, with Intel i5-2450M:
    256-bit key
            enc     dec
    16B     0.98x   0.99x
    64B     0.64x   0.63x
    256B    1.29x   1.32x
    1024B   1.54x   1.58x
    8192B   1.57x   1.60x

    performance is reduced in tcrypt for 64 byte long blocks.
