Raw Normal View History

Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

[CRYPTO] api: Split out low-level API The crypto API is made up of the part facing users such as IPsec and the low-level part which is used by cryptographic entities such as algorithms. This patch splits out the latter so that the two APIs are more clearly delineated. As a bonus the low-level API can now be modularised if all algorithms are built as modules.

help
Some VIA processors come with an integrated crypto engine
(so called VIA PadLock ACE, Advanced Cryptography Engine)
that provides instructions for very fast {en,de}cryption
with some algorithms.
The instructions are used only when the CPU supports them.
Otherwise software encryption is used. If you are unsure,
say Y.
config CRYPTO_DEV_PADLOCK_AES
bool "Support for AES in VIA PadLock"
depends on CRYPTO_DEV_PADLOCK
default y
help
Use VIA PadLock for AES algorithm.
