Description
2.4.0-RC (amd64)
built on Wed Aug 23 15:31:27 CDT 2017
FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE-p12
The pfSense Crypto HW information is inconsistent.
The "CPU Type" field now includes output detecting AES-NI CPU Crypto hardware
Example: AES-NI CPU Crypto: Yes (active)
NB AES-NI is only applicable to x86/amd64 architectures. Future support for other variants such as QAT or ARM AES?
Next, the "Hardware crypto" field actually shows kernel crypto support.
Example: AES-CBC,AES-XTS,AES-GCM,AES-ICM
Suggestion: move CPU Crypto information to Hardware Crypto field.
Example:
AES-NI: Active
Kernel support: AES-CBC,AES-XTS,AES-GCM,AES-ICM
