.Dd June 15, 2007 .Dt GLXSB 4 i386 .Os .Sh NAME .Nm glxsb .Nd Geode LX Security Block crypto accelerator .Sh SYNOPSIS .Cd "glxsb* at pci?" .Sh DESCRIPTION The .Nm driver supports the security block of the Geode LX series processors. The Geode LX is a member of the AMD Geode family of integrated x86 system chips.
p Driven by periodic checks for available data from the generator, .Nm supplies entropy to the .Xr random 4 driver for common usage.
p .Nm also supports acceleration of AES-CBC operations for .Xr crypto 4 . .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr crypto 4 , .Xr intro 4 , .Xr pci 4 , .Xr random 4 , .Xr crypto 9 .Sh HISTORY The .Nm device first appeared in .Nx 4.0 . .Sh AUTHORS The .Nm driver was written for .Ox by .An Tom Cosgrove . It was ported to .Nx by .An Jared D. McNeill Aq jmcneill@NetBSD.org . .Sh BUGS The .Nm driver only provides random numbers and AES acceleration. Since it does not provide HMACs, IPSec will not currently use it; it will however be used by OpenSSH.
