Intel(R) Intelligent Storage Acceleration Library Crypto Version

ISA-L_crypto is a collection of optimized low-level functions targeting storage applications. ISA-L_crypto includes:

• Multi-buffer hashes - run multiple hash jobs together on one core for much better throughput than single-buffer versions.

  • SHA1, SHA256, SHA512, MD5

• Multi-hash - Get the performance of multi-buffer hashing with a single-buffer interface.

• Multi-hash + murmur - run both together.

• AES - block ciphers

  • XTS, GCM, CBC

• Rolling hash - Hash input in a window which moves through the input

• ISA-L_crypto for updates.

Building ISA-L

Prerequisites

• Assembler: nasm v2.11.01 or later (nasm v2.13 or better suggested for building in AVX512 support) or yasm version 1.2.0 or later.
• Compiler: gcc, clang, icc or VC compiler.
• Make: GNU 'make' or 'nmake' (Windows).
• Optional: Building with autotools requires autoconf/automake packages.

Autotools

To build and install the library with autotools it is usually sufficient to run:

./autogen.sh
./configure
make
sudo make install

Makefile

To use a standard makefile run:

make -f Makefile.unx

Windows

On Windows use nmake to build dll and static lib:

nmake -f Makefile.nmake

Other make targets

Other targets include:

• make check : create and run tests
• make tests : create additional unit tests
• make perfs : create included performance tests
• make ex : build examples
• make doc : build API manual
