Bug#597658: linux-headers-2.6.32-5-amd64: Missing aesni-intel module in kernel



Package: linux-headers-2.6.32-5-amd64
Version: 2.6.32-23
Severity: normal

Since 2.6.32-5 the aesni-intel modul is missing in the kernel, therefore
crypto-stuff on intel i5/i7 with aes-ni is a lot slower than it should be.

Would be nice if it could be activated per default again.

Cryptgraphic API -> AES cipher algorithms (AES-NI)

lsmod |grep -i aes

aes_x86_64              7340  3
aes_generic            25714  1 aes_x86_64

There should be the aesni-intel-module
