Starting with the z9 the CPU Cryptographic Assist Facility comes with an integrated Pseudo Random Number Generator. The generator creates random numbers by an algorithm similar to the ANSI X9.17 standard. The pseudo-random numbers can be accessed via a character device driver node called /dev/prandom. Similar to /dev/urandom any amount of bytes can be read from the device without blocking.

Some VIA processors come with an integrated crypto engine
|
|
(so called VIA PadLock ACE, Advanced Cryptography Engine)
|
|
that provides instructions for very fast cryptographic
|
|
operations with supported algorithms.
|
|
|
|
The instructions are used only when the CPU supports them.
|
|
Otherwise software encryption is used.
|
|
|
|
Selecting M for this option will compile a helper module
|
|
padlock.ko that should autoload all below configured
|
|
algorithms. Don't worry if your hardware does not support
|
|
some or all of them. In such case padlock.ko will
|
|
simply write a single line into the kernel log informing
|
|
about its failure but everything will keep working fine.
|
|
|
|
If you are unsure, say M. The compiled module will be
|
|
called padlock.ko

Say 'Y' here to use the AMD Geode LX processor on-board AES

engine for the CryptoAPI AES alogrithm.

To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
