Subject: e_devcrypto: default to not use digests in engine
|
2019-03-12 13:16:01 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Digests are almost always slower when using /dev/crypto because of the
|
|
|
|
|
cost of the context switches. Only for large blocks it is worth it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Also, when forking, the open context structures are duplicated, but the
|
|
|
|
|
internal kernel sessions are still shared between forks, which means an
|
|
|
|
|
update/close operation in one fork affects all processes using that
|
|
|
|
|
session.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This affects digests, especially for HMAC, where the session with the
|
|
|
|
|
key hash is used as a source for subsequent operations. At least one
|
|
|
|
|
popular application does this across a fork. Disabling digests by
|
|
|
|
|
default will mitigate the problem, while still allowing the user to
|
|
|
|
|
turn them on if it is safe and fast enough.
