The dca device driver is a multi-threaded, loadable hardware driver supporting Sun PCI-based (pci108e,5454) cryptographic accelerators, such as the Sun Crypto Accelerator 1000.
The dca driver requires the presence of Solaris Cryptographic Framework for applications and kernel clients to access the provided services.
The dca driver maintains the following statistics:
3desjobs
3desbytes
rsapublic
rsaprivate
dsasign
dsaverify
rngjobs
rngbytes
rngsha1jobs
rngsha1bytes
Additional statistics may be supplied for Sun support personnel, but are not useful to end users and are not documented here.
The dca driver can be configured by defining properties in /kernel/drv/dca.conf which override the default settings. The following properties are supported:
nostats
rngdirect
