From 0eee0fbd41c7b57d01136df2519c92ec1506e333 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ard Biesheuvel Date: Thu, 19 Feb 2015 17:25:16 +0000 Subject: arm64: crypto: increase AES interleave to 4x This patch increases the interleave factor for parallel AES modes to 4x. This improves performance on Cortex-A57 by ~35%. This is due to the 3-cycle latency of AES instructions on the A57's relatively deep pipeline (compared to Cortex-A53 where the AES instruction latency is only 2 cycles). At the same time, disable inline expansion of the core AES functions, as the performance benefit of this feature is negligible.
