.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm safe
|
|
.Nd SafeNet crypto accelerator
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
To compile this driver into the kernel,
|
|
place the following lines in your
|
|
kernel configuration file:
|
|
.Bd -ragged -offset indent
|
|
.Cd "device crypto"
|
|
.Cd "device cryptodev"
|
|
.Cd "device safe"
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Alternatively, to load the driver as a
|
|
module at boot time, place the following line in
|
|
.Xr loader.conf 5 :
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
safe_load="YES"
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Nm sysctl Va hw.safe.debug
|
|
.Nm sysctl Va hw.safe.dump
|
|
.Nm sysctl Va hw.safe.rnginterval
|
|
.Nm sysctl Va hw.safe.rngbufsize
|
|
.Nm sysctl Va hw.safe.rngmaxalarm
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver supports cards containing SafeNet crypto accelerator chips.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver registers itself to accelerate DES, Triple-DES, AES, MD5-HMAC,
|
|
SHA1-HMAC, and NULL operations for
|
|
.Xr ipsec 4
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr crypto 4 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
On all models, the driver registers itself to provide random data to the
|
|
.Xr random 4
|
|
subsystem.
|
|
Periodically the driver will poll the hardware RNG and retrieve
|
|
data for use by the system.
|
|
If the driver detects that the hardware RNG is resonating with any local
|
|
signal, it will reset the oscillators that generate random data.
|
|
Three
|
|
.Xr sysctl 8
|
|
settings control this procedure:
|
|
.Va hw.safe.rnginterval
|
|
specifies the time, in seconds, between polling operations,
|
|
.Va hw.safe.rngbufsize
|
|
specifies the number of 32-bit words to retrieve on each poll,
|
|
and
|
|
.Va hw.safe.rngmaxalarm
|
|
specifies the threshold for resetting the oscillators.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
When the driver is compiled with
|
|
.Dv SAFE_DEBUG
|
|
defined, two
|
|
.Xr sysctl 8
|
|
variables are provided for debugging purposes:
|
|
.Va hw.safe.debug
|
|
can be set to a non-zero value to enable debugging messages to be sent
|
|
to the console for each cryptographic operation,
|
|
.Va hw.safe.dump
|
|
is a write-only variable that can be used to force driver state to be sent
|
|
to the console.
|
|
Set this variable to
|
|
.Dq Li ring
|
|
to dump the current state of the descriptor ring,
|
|
to
|
|
.Dq Li dma
|
|
to dump the hardware DMA registers,
|
|
or
|
|
to
|
|
.Dq Li int
|
|
to dump the hardware interrupt registers.
|
|
.Sh HARDWARE
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver supports cards containing any of the following chips:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "SafeNet 1141" -offset indent
|
|
.It SafeNet 1141
|
|
The original chipset.
|
|
Supports DES, Triple-DES, AES, MD5, and SHA-1
|
|
symmetric crypto operations, RNG, public key operations, and full IPsec
|
|
packet processing.
|
|
.It SafeNet 1741
|
|
A faster version of the 1141.
