Once I've set it up, I'll share the same benchmark results for that particular combo. I u...

Apologies for the delay. I used a combination of these guides to muddle my way through the kernel compilation process, followed by the cryptodev compilation process. Unlike the advice on these pages though, I did it all on my Pi 3, rather than cross-compiling from a more powerful Linux machine, as t...

After doing some further tests, I'm not convinced that I've got this working, sadly. :( For my latest tests, I used the '-elapsed' option, which means "use wall clock time rather than CPU time". And I used the 'time' command to measure how long the tests took to run, shown at the bottom of each test...

I've been trying to enable the hardware crypto support that I believe is present in the Cortex-A53 cpu (used in the Pi 3)... After a struggle (because I've not done much compilation before), I think I've got cryptodev-linux kernel module working, and I have compiled a fresh OpenSSL from source, with...
