So called Intel Accelerator Engined is available at http://www.openssl.org/contrib/ [with source at http://cvs.openssl.org/dir?d=openssl-addons/intel-accel]. Quoting README:
" This is essentially a collection of assembler modules from development OpenSSL branch, packed together as a standalone engine. "Standalone" means that it can be compiled outside OpenSSL source tree without patching the latter. Idea is to provide a way to utilize new code in already released OpenSSL versions constrained by support and release policies limiting their evolvement to genuine bug fixes. ... Supported platforms are limited to ELF-based Unix-compatible OSes. Even though it's Intel Accelerator Engine it can be loaded on any compatible CPU and even might improve performance. It makes lesser sense to deploy it on pre-Bulldozer AMD CPUs, but it makes perfect sense to do so on Bulldozer, because it supports AES-NI instruction set extension." ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org Development Mailing List openssl-dev@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
