ccr — Chelsio T6
crypto accelerator driver
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your kernel configuration file:
device ccr
device cxgbeTo load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5):
ccr_load="YES"
The ccr driver provides support for the
crypto accelerator engine included on PCI Express Ethernet adapters based on
the Chelsio Terminator 6 ASIC (T6). The driver accelerates AES-CBC, AES-CCM,
AES-CTR, AES-GCM, AES-XTS, SHA1, SHA2-224, SHA2-256, SHA2-384, SHA2-512,
SHA1-HMAC, SHA2-224-HMAC, SHA2-256-HMAC, SHA2-384-HMAC, and SHA2-512-HMAC
operations for crypto(4) and ipsec(4).
The driver also supports chaining one of AES-CBC, AES-CTR, or AES-XTS with
SHA1-HMAC, SHA2-224-HMAC, SHA2-256-HMAC, SHA2-384-HMAC, or SHA2-512-HMAC for
encrypt-then-authenticate operations. For further hardware information and
questions related to hardware requirements, see
http://www.chelsio.com/.
The ccr driver attaches as a child of an
existing Chelsio NIC device and thus requires that the
cxgbe(4) driver be active.
The ccr driver supports the crypto
accelerator engine included on adapters based on the T6 ASIC:
For general information and support, go to the Chelsio support website at: http://www.chelsio.com/.
If an issue is identified with this driver with a supported adapter, email all the specific information related to the issue to <support@chelsio.com>.
The ccr device driver first appeared in
FreeBSD 12.0.
The ccr driver was written by
