mcux_caam: NXP MIMXRT11xx extended CAAM Support #67195

Open skumg opened 8 months ago

skumg commented 8 months ago

Is your enhancement proposal related to a problem? Please describe. The (fsl) CAAM peripheral on the RT11xx series of micro controllers currently only supports TRNG.

Describe the solution you'd like A new (fsl) CAAM driver would be a great entry point to add support for enhanced hardware accelerated encryption capabilities, especially for AES and HASH.

Describe alternatives you've considered There are currently no alternative implementations that I have found, which would help this cause.

Additional context The fsl_caam driver available in the NXP HAL is currently being used only for the true random number generator; the other components such as AES, HASH, DES are missing. This would be a great addition for improved encryption speeds.
