[dm-devel] SMP support

[Paul Jensen <pgjensen gmail com>]

I am new to the mailing list and searching around has shown outdated posts about multi-core support for kcryptd.

What is the current standing/ETA with adding SMP support for encryption/decryption with kcryptd?  Linux is severely behind Windows on volume encryption using only a single core.  With a quad-core CPU i am getting 4x the decryption (400-500MB/sec) vs 100-150MB/sec with Linux.

Thanks for all of the hard work put into this!
