fine when a lot of different flows to be ciphered/deciphered are involved. However, when a software crypto driver is used, there are situations where we could benefit from making crypto(9) multi threaded: - a single flow is to be ciphered: only one thread is used to cipher it, - a single ESP flow is to be deciphered: only one thread is used to decipher it. The idea here is to call crypto(9) using a new mode (CRYPTO_F_ASYNC) to dispatch the crypto jobs on multiple threads, if the underlying crypto driver is working in synchronous mode. Another flag is added (CRYPTO_F_ASYNC_KEEPORDER) to make crypto(9) dispatch the crypto jobs in the order they are received (an additional queue/thread is used), so that the packets are reinjected in the network using the same order they were posted. A new sysctl net.inet.ipsec.async_crypto can be used to activate this new behavior (disabled by default).

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information).
The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree. See build(7) and https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables.
The buildkernel
and installkernel
targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.
Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process. See build(7), config(8), and https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html for more information.
Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
buildkernel
and installkernel
targets, you might need to build
world before. More information is available in the handbook.
The kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf
sub-directory. GENERIC is the default configuration used in release builds.
