Support is almost working in Hardy. There's a bug in the caching logic in OpenSSL 0.9.8g that prevents the engine from being used, and when this is fixed support works fine with apps that properly enable OpenSSL engines, like OpenSSL.
A small patch (attached to bug #119295) is available to fix the caching logic. The patch is included in OpenSSL 0.9.8h upstream, so it should be quite safe to merge for hardy-updates . The OpenSSL cache logic patch is: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/13798833/bug119295.patch To get PadLock working with OpenSSH 4.7p1 the patch to OpenSSH that's attached to #119295 must be applied to OpenSSH *AND* the OpenSSL patch referenced above must be applied to OpenSSL. ** Description changed: VIA PadLock is a hardware cryptography engine for AES and SHA1/256. - OpenSSL should support PadLock. Initial work on PadLock support has already been done: + OpenSSL now supports PadLock, but a cache logic bug prevents the use of + the PadLock engine. + + A fairly trivial patch exists and has been merged in OpenSSL 0.9.8g + upstream. See bug #119295 for the patch and more details. + + Initial work on PadLock support was done some time ago: http://www.logix.cz/michal/devel/padlock/ -- OpenSSL should support VIA PadLock https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/119294 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
