**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Nov 16 02:59:58 2010 Nov 16 03:39:26 so can hardware accelerated ssh be done on the sheevaplug Nov 16 03:39:36 because it does have the crypto acceleration that can be utilized by openssl Nov 16 03:39:45 so I guess the question is... is ssh openssh aware? Nov 16 04:11:01 i think you mean openssl? Nov 16 04:11:07 and if you compile it that way, yes Nov 16 04:11:09 check your use flags Nov 16 04:11:41 wait, you're not the one with gentoo Nov 16 04:11:43 lol Nov 16 04:12:25 i'm not sure if debian (ubuntu?) compiles their packages with openssl, but seeing as that's the only crypto package used on those systems, i would assume it would have to be Nov 16 05:19:32 snowsnakes: you need to build a recent kernel to get the hardware crypto support Nov 16 05:21:52 so... what's up with this arch number that has to match between uboot and the kernel? what's it actually used for? Nov 16 05:23:35 probably some sort of entry point into the kernel Nov 16 05:23:56 all the uboot sources are available though, probably wouldn't be too hard to skim the code and see what it does Nov 16 06:02:37 mdm2k: Tootoot222 sort of has it correct. Nov 16 06:03:53 Each ARM based device has a mach_type to identify it. This is used to identify the device so the correct kernel code is executed and only that code Nov 16 06:04:22 Tootoot222: It is actually easier to read the kernel code than the uboot code Nov 16 06:05:45 well it's not so apparent where to look in the kernel code Nov 16 06:06:07 all you have to do for uboot is search for arcNum within the sources and see what it does after obtaining the value from the enviornment Nov 16 06:06:35 (most likely a giant switch statement, setting a variable for that mach_type) Nov 16 06:36:35 Tootoot222, tinker-f595: ah, I see, thanks Nov 16 06:37:09 how about uboot's mainlineLinux thing? similar? Nov 16 08:05:59 Tootoot222: it is very obvious in the kernel code Nov 16 08:15:26 Tootoot222: It is documented at http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6-stable.git;a=blob;f=Documentation/arm/Booting;h=76850295af8f93b0627f8a220f90ee8c6a677e92;hb=e53beacd23d9cb47590da6a7a7f6d417b941a994 Nov 16 08:16:33 I'll explain more another day...going to get some sleep now Nov 16 08:18:28 Tootoot222: read this as well http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6-stable.git;a=blob;f=Documentation/arm/README **** ENDING LOGGING AT Wed Nov 17 02:59:57 2010
