illumos gate

A placeholder request...
The latest openssl from you know who added aes_ni to support the on chip crypto acceleration.

for information, seeing this followup blog:

I tried first on my 32-bit AMD 2500 Barton running OI_151a:

$ isainfo -v
32-bit i386 applications
    ahf sse fxsr amd_3dnowx amd_3dnow amd_mmx mmx cmov sep cx8 tsc fpu 
$ isalist
pentium_pro+mmx pentium_pro pentium+mmx pentium i486 i386 i86
type             16 bytes     64 bytes    256 bytes   1024 bytes   8192 bytes
aes-128-cbc      36983.19k    65556.87k    82042.69k    87296.53k    89114.18k

and on a 64-bit AMD Opteron single socket 6128 :

$ isainfo -v
64-bit amd64 applications
        amd_svm amd_lzcnt popcnt amd_sse4a tscp ahf cx16 sse3 sse2 sse fxsr 
        amd_3dnowx amd_3dnow amd_mmx mmx cmov amd_sysc cx8 tsc fpu 
32-bit i386 applications
        amd_svm amd_lzcnt popcnt amd_sse4a tscp ahf cx16 sse3 sse2 sse fxsr 
        amd_3dnowx amd_3dnow amd_mmx mmx cmov amd_sysc cx8 tsc fpu 
$ isalist 
amd64 pentium_pro+mmx pentium_pro pentium+mmx pentium i486 i386 i86
...
type             16 bytes     64 bytes    256 bytes   1024 bytes   8192 bytes
aes-128-cbc      55081.64k    89261.27k   110092.46k   116614.49k   118759.42k

comparatively speaking, (with the blog), performance without hardware acceleration, even on a {almost} ten year old 32-bit processor, isn't too shabby compared with SPARC.

Can't wait for our imminent AMD Bulldozer upgrade which will have 'aes' support. Hence this request for a solution on the illumos platforme.
