safexcel — Inside Secure SafeXcel-IP-97 security packet engine

Description

       The  safexcel  driver  implements  crypto(4)  support for the cryptographic acceleration functions of the
       EIP-97 device found on some Marvell systems-on-chip.  The driver can accelerate the following AES modes:

          AES-CBC
          AES-CTR
          AES-XTS
          AES-GCM
          AES-CCM

       safexcel also implements SHA1 and SHA2 transforms, and can combine AES-CBC and AES-CTR with SHA1-HMAC and
       SHA2-HMAC for encrypt-then-authenticate operations.

History

       The safexcel driver first appeared in FreeBSD 13.0.

Debian                                            June 23, 2020                                      SAFEXCEL(4)
