1  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Via Padlock hardware acceleration on: March 12, 2011, 01:04:49 PM
Hi,

just started a fork to add VIA padlock harware accelaration for the sha256 functionality.  Find the git tree at:

  [removed dead link]

This is a very clean patch currently, only adding a few lines to cryptopp/sha.cpp .  Should be much cleaner (and more generic) then the code posted before here:

  http://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=355.0

Note that the code by Sgtstein even had a possible corruption bug when IRQs interrupted the crypto engine.

Still verifying whether it works.  Would be grateful for comments.

cheers,

David
