Alas, I also have that loaded. Currently loaded (related) modules are:<br><br>ocf<br>cryptodev<br>cryptosoft<br>geode_aes<br><br>Interestingly, though, lsmod claims that ocf is used by cryptosoft and cryptodev, but does not indicate geode_aes.<br>

<br>
Try "modprobe cryptosoft" as well, it makes the difference.<br>

Hi All,<br>
<br>
I'm just attempting to get the geode-aes up and running on my ALIX, and am running into some issues.<br>
<br>
I have the cryptodev modules loaded, along with ocf, geode_aes, and cryptosoft.<br>
<br>
I can verfy that the geode_aes is loaded, as if I run the cryptotest program from the OCF folks, it will do 309mbps of AES-128 with the geode_aes module loaded, and about 40mbps without.<br>
<br>
I also have the ocf versions of openssl and libssl (0.9.8g-15ocf) from the voyage archives installed, and get no errors when I run<br>
<br>
openssl speed -engine cryptodev -evp aes-128-cbc<br>
<br>
And, in fact, openssl seems to report significantly lower performance when geode_aes is enabled, compared to when it is not, which doesn't make much sense to me.<br>
<br>
Also, I tried sending 100MB of /dev/zero through an ssh link back to my main server, and was averaging only 3.9MB/s, which is about what you would expect without the hardware crypto. (The command here is:<br>
<br></div>
ssh -c aes128-cbc <a href="mailto:root@10.0.0.1" target="_blank">root@10.0.0.1</a> <mailto:<a href="mailto:root@10.0.0.1" target="_blank">root@10.0.0.1</a>> dd if=/dev/zero count=102400 bs=1024 > /dev/null<div class="im">
<br>
<br>
and there is no difference in performance between having geode_aes loaded or not.<br>
<br>
I have to admit, I'm a bit puzzled as to what's going on here.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>
Hans<br>
