You uncovered a bit of a bug in that document. The sections at line 413 and 457 shouldn't have an overline. Could you correct that please? |

I thought crypto was owned by TIFS in a default system? Is this not true? Can a user truly switch between hardware and software in a TI default system?
If this is true (great!), we should document how to switch. Some of the current guide shows how to do it with openssl by using -engine; is this the only way? The best way?

We have AES and SHA engine available in Linux (different instance than TIFS), so not entire crypto is owned only by TIFS. User has the flexibility to chose.
Yes, users can do the switch using openssl -engine option (it's documented in existing docs). openssl is the industry standard, hence the SDK doc refers to it

Add documentation on crypto implementation options including hardware crypto accelerators and ARM-based crypto extensions, and the trade-offs of using them. Signed-off-by: Shiva Tripathi <s-tripathi1@ti.com>
