Description Jan Klod 2008-11-19 11:33:46 UTC

openssl-0.9.8h-r1 is not using padlock HW acceleration, if I try
openssl speed -evp sha1 -engine padlock

Perhaps that is causing a problems for ssh, which is also slowed down for same reason. I know for sure, padlock works with my kernel for AES and sha1.

What to do?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.setup hardened gentoo on VIA Eden board
2.compile kernel with PaX and padlock support in (not modules)
3.run openssl like described.

Actual Results:  
slow

Expected Results:  
fast

Please post your `emerge --info' too, and perhaps some output showing the speed difference between the padlock engine and the default.
