AES encryption/decryption optimized with Intel AES-NI. #22

Open JohnMcW opened 5 years ago

JohnMcW commented 5 years ago

We may want to support AES encryption/decryption optimized with Intel AES-NI in case of common server platform in case we dont already use an hsm. Algorithm proposed:

  1. Detect if the system has AES-NI enabled
  2. In case it has, use the AES-NI primitive
  3. Otherwise switch back to software AES. https://software.intel.com/sites/default/files/article/165683/aes-wp-2012-09-22-v01.pdf
