reydecopas Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Hi, Following the guide https://docs.armbian.com/Developer-Guide_Build-Preparation/ I compiled a kernel 4.10 and I get: [*] Only appears one CPU. CPU1, CPU2, CPU3 show disabled as lshw result. Anybody know how to enable the other cores? [*] In kernel config I enabled staging drivers for sun8i crypto engine. It seems that after loading the module, cat /proc/crypto does't appears to be using the crypto engine. openssl speed seems to be the same than legacy kernel. In dtb I can see that there is some stuff about crypto with status: disabled Anyone can help in getting the crypto engine enabled? [*] wifi: The iface wlan0 doesn't exists in kernel 4.10. but after compiling git clone https://github.com/jwrdegoede/rtl8189ES_linux.gitfrom from http://linux-sunxi.org/Wifi the wlan0 appears and I am able to scan wifi... but there is a error when trying to associate with WPA-PSK CCMP so no wireless connection. Anyone can point how to make it work? Greetings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zador.blood.stained Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 [*] Only appears one CPU. CPU1, CPU2, CPU3 show disabled as lshw result. Anybody know how to enable the other cores? Did you make a full image or only the kernel? Installing dev kernel on a system which previously had legacy kernel without replacing u-boot and boot environment file will produce this issue.

Igor Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 only the kernel... do you recommend full image? Yes ... in case you don't know exactly what you are doing. Read Zador's post again - he wrote you what to do instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reydecopas Posted February 23, 2017 Author Share Posted February 23, 2017 Full image solves for me: -Quad core fully enabled -Wifi works (compiling from git rtl8189ES_linux) but... regarding crypto engine...

ozdemirkulaoglu Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 Hi, I use same methodology as you tried and cryptodev test has been successfully worked for AES128, AES192 and AES256 algorithms. Also, I compiled openssl by enabling crypto engine support. After that, when I try to compile openssh, it works without using openssl's crypto engine libraries by default. In this case, I got data transmission speed about 14 MB/sec on openssh and my cpu usage is 94%. When I export openssl's crypto engine libraries, then data transmission speed descreases to 4 MB/sec. as the maximum speed. Also, cpu usage descreases to 9%. I use gigabit ethernet connection between my devices which are orange pi plus and banana pi M2. So, the performance is very bad as a result. Note: This method only does not work on orange pi plus. It works on banana pi M2 as expected. Could anyone help me with this performance problem? What do I need to do? Regards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards. @ozdemirkulaoglu what output does running this command give with and without crypto engine libraries time openssl speed -evp aes-128-cbc -engine cryptodev what crypto module you using "sun8i-ce" ?
