System z kernel features – z10 support
•
Support for hardware accelerated crypto
•
Add support for the new hardware accelerated crypto algorithms.
•
The new algorithms are SHA-512 (including SHA-384) and AES-192, AES-256.
•
This support is available only on IBM System z10, running Linux on System z in
an LPAR or as a VM guest.
•
The new algorithms have been added to the in-kernel crypto API with kernel
version 2.6.25.
•
The new algorithms have been added to the user space library libica 1.3.9
which is part of openCryptoki, see http://opencryptoki.sourceforge.net/.
•
System z HiperSockets layer-2 support (kernel 2.6.25)
•
HiperSockets are enhanced to support layer-2 functionality.
•
The existing OSA layer-2 support is utilized to enable HiperSockets layer-2.
This includes IPv6 support for HiperSocket layer-2. Connecting layer-2 and
layer-3 hosts is not supported by the System z firmware.
•
This support is available only on z10, running Linux on System z in an LPAR or
as a VM guest (z/VM 5.2 or later).
