308ce0c61cSGavin Atkinson.Sh NAME
318ce0c61cSGavin Atkinson.Nm padlock
328ce0c61cSGavin Atkinson.Nd "driver for the cryptographic functions and RNG in VIA C3, C7 and Eden processors"
338ce0c61cSGavin Atkinson.Sh SYNOPSIS
348ce0c61cSGavin AtkinsonTo compile this driver into the kernel,
358ce0c61cSGavin Atkinsonplace the following lines in your
368ce0c61cSGavin Atkinsonkernel configuration file:
378ce0c61cSGavin Atkinson.Bd -ragged -offset indent
388ce0c61cSGavin Atkinson.Cd "device crypto"
398ce0c61cSGavin Atkinson.Cd "device padlock"
408ce0c61cSGavin Atkinson.Ed
418ce0c61cSGavin Atkinson.Pp
428ce0c61cSGavin AtkinsonAlternatively, to load the driver as a
438ce0c61cSGavin Atkinsonmodule at boot time, place the following line in
448ce0c61cSGavin Atkinson.Xr loader.conf 5 :
458ce0c61cSGavin Atkinson.Bd -literal -offset indent
468ce0c61cSGavin Atkinsonpadlock_load="YES"

488ce0c61cSGavin Atkinson.Sh DESCRIPTION
498ce0c61cSGavin AtkinsonThe C3 and Eden processor series from VIA include hardware acceleration for
508ce0c61cSGavin AtkinsonAES.
518ce0c61cSGavin AtkinsonThe C7 series includes hardware acceleration for AES, SHA1, SHA256 and RSA.
528ce0c61cSGavin AtkinsonAll of the above processor series include a hardware random number generator.
538ce0c61cSGavin Atkinson.Pp
548ce0c61cSGavin AtkinsonThe
558ce0c61cSGavin Atkinson.Nm
568ce0c61cSGavin Atkinsondriver registers itself to accelerate AES operations and, if available, HMAC/SHA1
578ce0c61cSGavin Atkinsonand HMAC/SHA256 for
588ce0c61cSGavin Atkinson.Xr crypto 4 .
598ce0c61cSGavin AtkinsonIt also registers itself to accelerate other HMAC algorithms, although
608ce0c61cSGavin Atkinsonthere is no hardware acceleration for those algorithms.
618ce0c61cSGavin AtkinsonThis is only needed so
628ce0c61cSGavin Atkinson.Nm
638ce0c61cSGavin Atkinsoncan work with
648ce0c61cSGavin Atkinson.Xr ipsec 4 .
658ce0c61cSGavin Atkinson.Pp
668ce0c61cSGavin AtkinsonThe hardware random number generator supplies data for the kernel
678ce0c61cSGavin Atkinson.Xr random 4
688ce0c61cSGavin Atkinsonsubsystem.
