[crypto] Allow for AES hardware acceleration Allow architectures to detect support for AES hardware acceleration at runtime and to replace the AES algorithm's encrypt() and decrypt() method pointers with hardware accelerated implementations. Extend the automated tests to run the AES tests twice: once with hardware acceleration explicitly disabled (to test the unaccelerated software implementation) and once with acceleration re-enabled. Skip the second test if no hardware acceleration is available: this avoids unnecessarily repeating the test of the unaccelerated implementation, and allows a non-zero test count for "aes-hw" to indicate that the hardware acceleration was tested. For example: On a system that supports AES hardware acceleration: OK: "aes" 120 tests passed OK: "aes-hw" 120 tests passed On a system that does not support AES hardware acceleration: OK: "aes" 120 tests passed OK: "aes-hw" 0 tests passed Signed-off-by: Michael Brown <mcb30@ipxe.org>
iPXE is the leading open source network boot firmware. It provides a full PXE implementation enhanced with additional features such as:
boot from a web server via HTTP or HTTPS,
boot from an iSCSI, FCoE, or AoE SAN,
control the boot process with a script,
You can use iPXE to replace the existing PXE ROM on your network card, or you can chainload into iPXE to obtain the features of iPXE without the hassle of reflashing.
iPXE is free, open-source software licensed under the GNU GPL (with some portions under GPL-compatible licences).
You can download the rolling release binaries (built from the latest commit), or use the most recent stable release.
