Я хотел использовать старую машину T2 в качестве веб-сервера для веб-сайтов с большим количеством SSL. В Solaris доступно криптоускорение, которое имеет смысл для SSL. Теперь мне интересно, переносилось ли это криптоускорение на Linux?

# openssl engine
(dynamic) Dynamic engine loading support
Я не мог перестать думать об этом, поэтому я установил еще одну машину T2 с Solaris 10 и патчами pkcs11. Похоже, что, хотя это и не указано в dmesg, openssl Engine или других, аппаратное ускорение для ЦП Niagara уже реализовано в Linux:
# /usr/sfw/bin/openssl speed aes-128-cbc -engine pkcs11
engine "pkcs11" set.
