From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Gonglei Subject: [PATCH v2] virtio-crypto: adjust priority of algorithm Date: Fri, 13 Jan 2017 17:34:16 +0800 Message-ID: <1484300056-35284-1-git-send-email-arei.gonglei@huawei.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain Cc: , , , Gonglei To: , , Return-path: Received: from szxga03-in.huawei.com ([119.145.14.66]:55298 "EHLO szxga03-in.huawei.com" rhost-flags-OK-OK-OK-OK) by vger.kernel.org with ESMTP id S1751345AbdAMJeu (ORCPT ); Fri, 13 Jan 2017 04:34:50 -0500 Sender: linux-crypto-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: Some hardware accelerators (like intel aesni or the s390 cpacf functions) have lower priorities than virtio crypto, and those drivers are faster than the same in the host via virtio. So let's lower the priority of virtio-crypto's algorithm, make it's higher than software implementations but lower than the hardware ones.
