Re: RISCV vector cryptography support

[Sivachandran S]

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for the information.

In that case it means that QEMU only supports the scalar cryptographic instructions alone. Please confirm.

Also please let me know how to test with QEMU, or point to any link or material, where the crypto tests shall be run for RISCV in QEMU.

Thanks,

Siva.S

QEMU doesn't have vector crypto support at this moment. It's currently a
work under review:

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2023-04/msg05580.html

Depending on how the review goes, QEMU 8.1 (to be released in August) will
implement this support.


Thanks,

Daniel
