How to let OpenSSL applications/utilities use SunSPARC crypto accelerators?

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

 



Hello OpenSSL folks,

I noticed that the OpenSSL command line utility 'openssl' built in Solaris
11.1 does not use SunSPARC crypto accelerators. 

>From the change log of OpenSSL 1.0.2, I saw the following description.
Changes between 1.0.1l and 1.0.2 [22 Jan 2015] 
... 
  *) Support for SPARC Architecture 2011 crypto extensions, first 
     implemented in SPARC T4. This covers AES, DES, Camellia, SHA1, 
     SHA256/512, MD5, GHASH and modular exponentiation. 
     [Andy Polyakov, David Miller] 
...

My understanding is that starting from OpenSSL 1.0.2, OpenSSL
applications/utilities would use SunSPARC crypto accelerator in Solaris 11.1
which has the accelerator. 

However my tests show there is no difference between the performance of
'openssl' 1.0.1p and that of its 1.0.2d counterpart.

I built 'openssl' on Solaris 11.1 using the following commands. 
Configure no-idea no-mdc2 no-rc5 no-asm solaris64-sparcv9-cc -KPIC 
make clean 
make 
make test 
make install 

When testing the default openssl installed in /usr/bin/ on Solaris 11.1, I
saw a much better result below.

Hence I believe OpenSSL utility 'openssl' built by me does not use the
hardware crypto accelerators at all. 

I wonder if anyone knows the reason. 

Thanks in advance,
Aaron
