.Sh NAME
.Nm ubsec
.Nd Broadcom and BlueSteel uBsec 5x0x crypto accelerator
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Cd "ubsec* at pci? dev ? function ?"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
driver supports cards containing any of the following chips:
.Bl -tag -width namenamenamena -offset indent
.It Bluesteel 5501
The original chipset, no longer made.  This extremely rare unit
was not very fast, lacked a RNG, and had a number of other bugs.
.It Bluesteel 5601
A faster and fixed version of the original, with a random number
unit and RSA engine added.
.It Broadcom BCM5805
32 bit version of the above chip.
.It Broadcom BCM5820
64 bit version of the chip, and significantly more advanced.
.It Broadcom BCM5821
Faster version of the BCM5820.
.El
.Pp
The
.Nm
driver registers itself to accelerate DES, Triple-DES, MD5-HMAC96,
and SHA1-HMAC96 operations in
.Xr ipsec 4 .
On all models except the Bluesteel 5501, the driver also registers
itself to provide random data to the
.Xr random 4
subsystem.
.Sh SEE ALSO
.Xr crypt 3 ,
.Xr ipsec 4 ,
.Xr random 4 ,
.Xr crypto 9
.Sh HISTORY
The
.Nm
device driver appeared in
.Ox 2.8 .
.Sh BUGS
BCM5821 has not actually been tested.
