Hardware crypto devices

 * Option: CRYPTO_DEV_PADLOCK
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * (on/off/module) Support for VIA PadLock ACE
 * depends on CRYPTO && X86_32
 * Some VIA processors come with an integrated crypto engine (so called VIA PadLock ACE, Advanced Cryptography Engine) that provides instructions for very fast {en,de}cryption with some algorithms.  The instructions are used only when the CPU supports them. Otherwise software encryption is used. If you are unsure, say Y.


 * Option: CRYPTO_DEV_PADLOCK_AES
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * (on/off) Support for AES in VIA PadLock
 * depends on CRYPTO_DEV_PADLOCK
 * default y
 * Use VIA PadLock for AES algorithm.
