Issue description: ZQ calibration issue with LPDDR2 memory with two chip selects    Micron has verified it on my customer's board with i.MX6Q. (ECT-SYT-1163 for FIC.pdf) The patch is made based on lp 5.1, see attachment.

On customer design, they may need to fine tune LVDS driver strength for different case, for example, PCB impedance does not match, or the value of terminal resistor in panel side is lower or bigger. In IMX8MPRM.pdf, it has reg for this feature:         LVDS is constant current source, when voltage on terminal or panel side is lower than spec, you need to increase output current to get higher voltage to meet spec. otherwise ,you need to reduce it There is no detail description for these bits, pls refer to below: CC_ADJ = 000b => 3.5mA as default CC_ADJ = 001b => 3.5mA + 0.215mA x 1 CC_ADJ = 010b => 3.5mA + 0.215mA x 2 CC_ADJ = 011b => 3.5mA + 0.215mA x 4 CC_ADJ = 100b => 3.5mA - 0.215mA x 4 CC_ADJ = 101b => 3.5mA - 0.215mA x 3 CC_ADJ = 110b => 3.5mA - 0.215mA x 2 CC_ADJ = 111b => 3.5mA - 0.215mA x 1   Thanks, Lambert

Hello everyone, this document will share an step by step guide of the configuration needed in a Linux PC to compile the SDK examples we provide, as well as how to download them in an easy way. Requirements: I.MX 8M Mini EVK SDK package (for i.MX8MM) UUU tool First step would be to get the SDK package, this include documentation and code, which is available at the MCUXpresso builder webpage: https://mcuxpresso.nxp.com/en/welcome Click on the select a development board and select the package for your development kit or the i.MX MPU   This guide is focused on Linux build so will select GCC package and Linux host PC as the environment. Click on build and wait for the SDK package to be ready for download. Note1: Click on select all if the whole middleware package is desired Note2: it is possible to select each middleware that are desired. On new window select download SDK Select on new pop-up window download both SDK and documentation Read and accept EULA so the download start Decompress the package using the following command: $ tar -xvzf ~/SDK_2_13_0_EVK-MIMX8MM.tar.gz -C ~/SDK_2_13_0_EVK-MIMX8MM Next will be to download the GCC from the ARM webpage, gcc-arm-none-eabi-10.3-2021.10-x86_64-linux.tar.bz2 https://developer.arm.com/downloads/-/gnu-rm Note that the GCC version used is based on the minimum version required, since this was tested and supported, this could be found within the SDK documentation (~/SDK_2_13_0_EVK-MIMX8MM/docs/MCUXpresso SDK Release Notes for EVK-MIMX8MM) Once downloaded we can decompress and configure the environment: $ tar -xf gcc-arm-none-eabi-10.3-2021.10-x86_64-linux.tar.bz2 $ export ARMGCC_DIR=~/gcc-arm-none-eabi-10.3-2021.10 $ export PATH=$PATH:~/gcc-arm-none-eabi-10.3-2021.10 $ sudo apt-get install cmake  Check the version >= 3.0.x $ cmake --version Once this is done we enter the path of the example of our choice and compile using the script, as necessary using debug, release or all. $ cd ~/SDK_2_13_0_EVK-MIMX8MM/boards/evkmimx8mm/demo_apps/hello_world/armgcc $./build_release.sh The binary (elf and bin) will be found inside the folder according to whether we use debug or release script. For this example we used release script: $ cd release Once builded we can move/download the binaries from the Linux host PC to the board by using the UUU tool with the command fat_write #### we put the board in fastboot mode by entering the command in the uboot terminal fastboot 0 #### From the Linux terminal introduce the UUU command to  download to the FAT partition of the eMMC of the baord: ## For rproc it is needed the .elf binary ## $ uuu -v -b fat_write hello_world.elf mmc 0:1 hello_world.elf ## For bootaux it is needed the .bin binary ## $  uuu -v -b fat_write hello_world.bin mmc 0:1 hello_world.bin Once with the binaries in the FAT partition of the SD/eMMC of our board we can make the necessary modifications (device tree/bootargs) to test the Cortex-M examples. For any question regarding this document, please create a community thread and tag me if needed. Saludos/Regards, Aldo.

  Platform: i.MX8MP EVK , L6.1.22-2.0.0 LT9211 is a chip that can realize the conversion of MIPI DSI signals to LVDS signals. This patch is based on this mainline driver:https://github.com/nxp-imx/linux-imx/blob/lf-6.1.y/drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/lontium-lt9211.c Keypoint Move lt9211_host_attach function to lt9211_attach to skip bridge attach error.  

1.Compile full aosp or only kernel Build full aosp: source build/envsetup.sh lunch evk_8mm-userdebug ./imx-make.sh -j8  Only build kernel: ./imx-make.sh kernel -j8 2.Build GKI locally Download GKI outside of android_build. mkdir gki && cd gki (Make sure folder gki is not inside of ${MY_ANDROID}) repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/manifest -b commonandroid13-5.15 repo sync Build GKI locally. BUILD_CONFIG=common/build.config.gki.aarch64 build/build.sh 3. Export symbols After building GKI locally, you can copy linux-imx from /vendor/nxp-opensource/kernel_imx into common. cd common rm -r ./* cp ${MY_ANDROID}/vendor/nxp-opensource/kernel_imx/* ./ ln -s ${MY_ANDROID}/vendor/nxp-opensource/verisilicon_sw_isp_vvcam verisilicon_sw_isp_vvcam ln -s ${MY_ANDROID}/vendor/nxp-opensource/nxp-mwifiex nxp-mwifiex  Build GKI about i.MX: BUILD_FOR_GKI=yes BUILD_CONFIG=common/build.config.imx EXT_MODULES_MAKEFILE="verisilicon_sw_isp_vvcam/vvcam/v4l2/Kbuild" EXT_MODULES="nxp-mwifiex/mxm_wifiex/wlan_src" build/build_abi.sh --update-symbol-list -j8 Then the  common/android/abi_gki_aarch64_imx will be generated. cd gki cp common/android/abi_gki_aarch64_imx /tmp/abi_gki_aarch64_imx   Update GKI kernel rm -r common/* # delete imx kernel repo sync # recover aosp kernel cp /tmp/abi_gki_aarch64_imx android/abi_gki_aarch64_imx cd .. BUILD_CONFIG=common/build.config.gki.aarch64 build/build_abi.sh LTO=thin --update -j8  Then, common/android/abi_gki_aarch64.xml is updated.  

  Introduction   Platform: i.MX93 EVK Uboot: origin/lf_v2022.04(lf-6.1.1-1.0.0) The LVDS design and media block control in i.MX93 is very similiar with i.MX8MPlus.This article implements the LVDS driver in uboot. You need apply 0001-Add-fake-adp5585-pwm-driver.patch which implements the adp5585 pwm driver in uboot. This is a fake pwm driver only implement the pwm driver framework. You can't use pwm value to adjust brightness for the moment, but this is enough to enable the backlight. Then please apply 0002-Add-imx93-lvds-and-panel-driver.patch, you will see nxp logo with this panel: https://www.nxp.com/design/development-boards/i-mx-evaluation-and-development-boards/dy1212w-4856:DY1212W-4856   Porting suggestions   1. Modify panel timing in drivers/video/simple_panel.c /* define your panel timing here and * copy it in simple_panel_get_display_timing */ static const struct display_timing boe_ev121wxm_n10_1850_timing = { .pixelclock.typ = 71143000, .hactive.typ = 1280, .hfront_porch.typ = 32, .hback_porch.typ = 80, .hsync_len.typ = 48, .vactive.typ = 800, .vfront_porch.typ = 6, .vback_porch.typ = 14, .vsync_len.typ = 3, }; static int simple_panel_get_display_timing(struct udevice *dev, struct display_timing *timings) { memcpy(timings, &boe_ev121wxm_n10_1850_timing, sizeof(*timings)); return 0; }   2.Modify VIDEO_PLL The VIDEO_PLL = pixel clock * 7. For default panel, the pixel clock is 71.143MHz and VIDEO_PLL  is 498MHz. static struct imx_fracpll_rate_table imx9_fracpll_tbl[] = { FRAC_PLL_RATE(1000000000U, 1, 166, 4, 2, 3), /* 1000Mhz */ FRAC_PLL_RATE(933000000U, 1, 155, 4, 1, 2), /* 933Mhz */ FRAC_PLL_RATE(700000000U, 1, 145, 5, 5, 6), /* 700Mhz */ FRAC_PLL_RATE(498000000U, 1, 166, 8, 0, 1),/* rate, rdiv, mfi, odiv, mfn, mfd */ FRAC_PLL_RATE(484000000U, 1, 121, 6, 0, 1), FRAC_PLL_RATE(445333333U, 1, 167, 9, 0, 1), FRAC_PLL_RATE(466000000U, 1, 155, 8, 1, 3), /* 466Mhz */ FRAC_PLL_RATE(400000000U, 1, 200, 12, 0, 1), /* 400Mhz */ FRAC_PLL_RATE(300000000U, 1, 150, 12, 0, 1), }; 3. Modify lcdif node in dts <498000000>, <71142857>, <400000000>, <133333333>; <VIDEO PLL>,<PIX CLK>, <MEDIA_AXI>,<MEDIA_APB> &lcdif { status = "okay"; - assigned-clock-rates = <484000000>, <121000000>, <400000000>, <133333333>; + assigned-clock-rates = <498000000>, <71142857>, <400000000>, <133333333>; };  

The following setup is done on i.MX 93. For i.MX 8M the same steps are valid and can be followed. Prerequisites Prepare the Yocto environment. $ mkdir imx-yocto-bsp $ cd imx-yocto-bsp $ repo init -u https://github.com/nxp-imx/imx-manifest -b imx-linux-langdale -m imx-6.1.1-1.0.0.xml $ repo sync  Set the build environment. $ DISTRO=fsl-imx-wayland MACHINE=imx93-11x11-lpddr4x-evk source imx-setup-release.sh -b build-imx93 Add the 32-bit support to the image For i.MX 8M / i.MX 93, building 32-bit applications on 64-bit OS can be supported using the multilib configuration. Multilib offers the ability to build libraries with different target optimizations or architecture formats and combine these together into one system image.  Building a 32-bit application requires the following statements in conf/local.conf. The configuration specifies a 64-bit machine as the main machine type and adds multilib:lib32, where those libraries are compiled with the armv7athf-neon tune, and then includes to the image the lib32 packages. # Define multilib target require conf/multilib.conf MULTILIBS = "multilib:lib32" DEFAULTTUNE:virtclass-multilib-lib32 = "armv7athf-neon" # Add the multilib packages to the image IMAGE_INSTALL:append = " lib32-glibc lib32-libgcc lib32-libstdc++" Multilib is not supported with the debian package management. It requires the RPM system. Check and comment out the two package management lines in conf/local.conf to go to the default RPM. PACKAGE_CLASSES = "package_deb" EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES += "package-management" Build the image. bitbake imx-image-core Cross-compile a 32-bit application This section shows how to use the Linux SDK to cross-compile a simple C application into a 32-bit binary. Generate the SDK, which includes the tools, toolchain, and small rootfs to compile against to put on host machine: DISTRO=fsl-imx-wayland MACHINE=imx93-11x11-lpddr4x-evk bitbake core-image-minimal -c populate_sdk Set the SDK environment with the following command before building: source /opt/fsl-imx-wayland/6.1-langdale/environment-setup-armv7at2hf-neon-pokymllib32-linux-gnueabi Implement a simple hello world application: cat hello_world_32.c #include <stdio.h> int main() { printf("Hello, World!"); return 0; } $CC hello_world_32.c -o hello_world_32 Check the file's type: $ file hello_world_32 hello_world_32: ELF 32-bit LSB shared object, ARM, EABI5 version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib/ld-linux-armhf.so.3, BuildID[sha1]=0a5042a0309858e0b10b12175a155cfbfb4c6a80, for GNU/Linux 3.2.0, with debug_info, not stripped Copy the binary to the Linux rootfs. Run the application on i.MX 93 Boot the board and run the application: root@imx93-11x11-lpddr4x-evk:~# ./hello_world_32 Hello, World!  

Installing the new release (Ubuntu 22.04) was detected some NXP boards as iMX8MNEVK, iMX8MM-EVK, iMX8MP-EVK and iMX8ULP-EVK had an issue with the WIFI module that basically it does not initialize at boot. Remember, the supported WIFI modules in Ubuntu 22.04 in the EVKs are the following:       • NXP 88W8987       • NXP 88W9098       • NXP 88W8997       • NXP IW416       • NXP 88W8801       • NXP IW612 To initialize the WIFI module of NXP EVKs in Ubuntu 22.04 you can set the following command in console:   sudo modprobe moal mod_para=nxp/wifi_mod_para.conf   That command find the correct driver for our WIFI module and then initialize it, but this only works when Ubuntu is working and if you reset the EVK you need to set the command again.   The definitive solution is create a custom startup script as a service:   Step 1: Go to etc/systemd/system   cd etc/systemd/system   Step 2: In this directory create a new file with the name of your preference but the extension must be .service. You can do it with nano or vim: sudo nano or sudo vim   The file must contain: [Unit] Description=”Wifi Start” [Service] ExecStart=sudo modprobe moal mod_para=nxp/wifi_mod_para.conf [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target   Now save the file, in my case the name was wifi_start.service.   Step 3: Now we need to enable the script in the startup/boot sequence following the command: sudo systemctl enable wifi_start.service   Remember in wifi_start.service is the name as you saved your file.   Finally, each time you boot your board, the WIFI module will initialize automatically.   Boards tested: iMX8MN (With WIFI module NXP 88W8987) iMX8MM (With WIFI module NXP 88W8987) iMX8MP (With WIFI module NXP 88W8997) iMX8ULP (With WIFI module NXP IW416)

In this article, I will explain how to set up the iMX8M Plus to use the 4K Dart BCON Basler Camera module. Requirements: Evaluation Kit for the i.MX 8M Plus Applications Processor. (i.MX 8M Plus Evaluation Kit | NXP Semiconductors) Basler Camera for i.MX 8M Plus (4K dart BCON for MIPI camera module for i.MX 8M Plus | NXP Semiconductors). Embedded Linux for i.MX Applications Processors (Embedded Linux for i.MX Applications Processors | NXP Semiconductors) (For this example we will use BSP version Linux 5.15.71_2.2.0) Serial Console Emulator Basler Camera Specifications and Manuals: Basler Camera Specifications at this link: Embedded Vision Kits daA3840-30mc-IMX8MP-EVK - Embedded Vision Kits (baslerweb.com). Basler Manual to identify and setting up the hardware at this link: daA3840-30mc-IMX8MP-EVK | Basler Product Documentation (baslerweb.com) Basler Camera Module out-of-box with i.MX 8M Plus Applications Processor. (Video: Basler Camera Module out-of-box with i.MX 8M Plus Applications Processor | NXP Semiconductors) Steps After setting up the hardware we will need to turn on the iMX8M Plus and follow these steps: 1. Stop the boot process on Uboot by pressing any key. 2. Use the following command to list interfaces. => mmc list Output example => FSL_SDHC: 1 (SD) => FSL_SDHC: 2 The above command will show you the device number in this example for SD, the device number is 1. 3. Then use fatls <interface> <device[:partition]> [<directory>] fatls mmc 1:1 (Device 1 : Partition 1) With this command, we will be able to list device tree files. => fatls mmc 1:1 4. Select imx8mp-evk-basler.dtb or imx8mp-evk-dual-basler.dtb and use the command editenv fdtfile.  => editenv fdtfile Output example edit: imx8mp-evk-basler.dtb 5. In edit command line put the selected device tree (*.dtb). 6. Use saveenv command to save environment and continue with the boot process. 7. Using the terminal and go to /opt/imx8-isp/bin and execute the script run.sh. $ ./run.sh -c basler_1080p60 -lm 8. Use the command gst-device-monitor-1.0 to list devices. Here you will find the path to the camera device. $ gst-device-monitor-1.0 Output example Device found: name : VIV class : Video/Source caps : video/x-raw, format=YUY2, width=[ 176, 4096, 16 ], height=[ 144, 3072, 8 ], pixel-aspect-ratio=1/1, framerate={ (fraction)30/1, (fraction)29/1, (fraction)28/1, (fraction)27/1, (fraction)26/1, (fraction)25/1, (fraction)24/1, (fraction)23/1, (fraction)22/1, (fraction)21/1, (fraction)20/1, (fraction)19/1, (fraction)18/1, (fraction)17/1, (fraction)16/1, (fraction)15/1, (fraction)14/1, (fraction)13/1, (fraction)12/1, (fraction)11/1, (fraction)10/1, (fraction)9/1, (fraction)8/1, (fraction)7/1, (fraction)6/1, (fraction)5/1, (fraction)4/1, (fraction)3/1, (fraction)2/1, (fraction)1/1 } ... properties: udev-probed = true device.bus_path = platform-vvcam-video.0 sysfs.path = /sys/devices/platform/vvcam-video.0/video4linux/video2 device.subsystem = video4linux device.product.name = VIV device.capabilities = :capture: device.api = v4l2 device.path = /dev/video2 v4l2.device.driver = viv_v4l2_device v4l2.device.card = VIV v4l2.device.bus_info = platform:viv0 v4l2.device.version = 393473 (0x00060101) v4l2.device.capabilities = 2216693761 (0x84201001) v4l2.device.device_caps = 69206017 (0x04200001) gst-launch-1.0 v4l2src device=/dev/video2 ! ... 9. Finally, use gstreamer to verify proper operation. (With this gstreamer pipeline you will see a new window with the camera output. Then, just rotate the lens to acquire the correct focus) $ gst-launch-1.0 -v v4l2src device=/dev/video2 !

Result     I hope this article will be helpful. Best regards, Brian.

This is about the case studay from two USB related issues: #1. Plugin detection issue caused by an errata in i.MX8/8X (host mode).       Very limited unit may encounter this problem. When issue happens, there will be totally no action on USB host port when a debug plugged in. #2: High Speed disconnection detection issue (host mode):       This may happen on some special USB design which have complex circuit and connector design on the USB path and long USB cable. The USB enumeration might be interrupted by an un-expected disconnection event. System log shows USB recognition started but failed at several different stages during handshake. For details, please refer to the doc attached (#1/#2). A reference patch for each has also been made by David.

Hello everyone, We have recently migrated our Source code from CAF (Codeaurora) to Github, so i.MX NXP old recipes/manifest that point to Codeaurora eventually will be modified so it points correctly to Github to avoid any issues while fetching using Yocto. Also, all repo init commands for old releases should be changed from: $ repo init -u https://source.codeaurora.org/external/imx/imx-manifest -b <branch name> [ -m <release manifest>] To: $ repo init -u https://github.com/nxp-imx/imx-manifest -b <branch name> [ -m <release manifest>] This will also apply to all source code that was stored in Codeaurora, the new repository for all i.MX NXP source code is: https://github.com/nxp-imx For any issues regarding this, please create a community thread and/or a support ticket. Regards, Aldo.

We are pleased to announce that Config Tools for i.MX v13.1 are now available.

    OpenSSL is popular software library for applications that secure communications over computer networks against eavesdropping or need to identify the party at the other end. It is widely used in internet web servers, serving a majority of all web sites. OpenSSL contains an open-source implementation of the Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocols, it is a robust, commercial-grade, and full-featured toolkit for the SSL and TLS protocols. OpenSSL is also a general-purpose cryptography library. Its core library, written in the C programming language, implements basic cryptographic functions and provides various utility functions. Wrappers allowing the use of the OpenSSL library in a variety of computer languages are available. More and more embeded systems, like IoT gateway, ePOS, based on i.MX use OpenSSL for their secure communications and cryptographic operations. But it's cryptography library is pure software implementation which need to occupy lots of CPU resouce and the perfermance is very weak than dedicated hardware IP (like CAAM).    CAAM is the i.MX's cryptographic acceleration and assurance module, which serves as NXP's latest cryptographic acceleration and offloading hardware. It combines functions previously implemented in separate modules to create a modular and scalable acceleration and assurance engine. It also implements block encryption algorithms, stream cipher algorithms, hashing algorithms, public key algorithms (i.MX6UL/i.MX7D/S), and a hardware random number generator.   The official Yocto release (L4.1.15_2.0.0-ga) of the i.MX only enable cryptodev for accelerating symmetric algorithms and hashing algorithms, not support asymmetric algorithms(RSA, ECC). And its engine in OpenSSL(version 1.0.2h) also miss some features which is used to support symmetric algorithms and hashing algorithms, for example, AES ECB, SHA224/256, etc. These patches in the post will close the above gaps for i.MX Linux system. The software environments as the belows: Linux kernel: imx_4.1.15_2.0.0_ga cryptodev: 1.8 OpenSSL: 1.0.2h The patches include the following key features: 1, Add public key cryptography part in CAAM driver, through protocol commands, to implement a number of public (and private) key functions. These are DSA and ECDSA sign/verify, Diffie-Hellman (DH) and ECDH key agreement, ECC key generation, DLC key generation, RSA encryption/decryption, RSA key-generation finalization. 2, Add big number operation and elliptic curve math in CAAM driver to implement addition, subtraction, multiplication, exponentiation, reduction, inversion, greatest common divisor, prime testing and point add, point double, point multiply. 3, Add API in cryptodev to support RSA encryption/decryption, DSA/ECDSA sign/verify, DH/ECDH key agreement, ECC & DLC & RSA key generation and big number operation and elliptic curve math. 4, Add public key cryptography functions, hardware rng, and missing hash symmetric algorithms in OpenSSL crytodev engine. Note: 1, You can refer to ecdhtest.c, ecdsatest.c, dhtest.c, dsatest.c, rsa_test.c for how to use crytodev engine in your applications based on libcryto.so. You can also find their executable programs in folder openssl-1.0.2h/test after compiling. 2, If you want to call crytodev API directly to accelerate public key cryptography operations, please refer to asymmetric_cipher.c in cryptodev-linux-1.8/tests. Current Limitation: 1, CAAM driver don't support AES GCM/CCM but hardware supporting. I plan to add the feature next version. 2, ECDSA sign/verify will fail on some binary curves (sect163r1, sect163r2, sect193r1, sect193r2, sect233r1, sect283r1, sect409r1, sect571r1 and X9.62 binary curves). I will try to find the root cause and fix it.   ==================================== for  some binary curves (sect163r1, sect163r2, sect193r1, sect193r2, sect233r1, sect283r1, sect409r1, sect571r1 and X9.62 binary curves)  are rarely used, so i will try to find the root cause when i'm free.  +++++++++++++++++++++++    updating for Linux-4.14.78-1.1.10 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ This updating is for Yocto release of Linux -4.14.78-1.1.10. The new software environments as the belows: Linux kernel: imx_4.14.78_1.1.10 cryptodev: 1.9 OpenSSL: 1.0.2p HW platform: i.MX6UL, i.MX7D/S, i.MX8M/8M Mini, i.MX8/8X. The patches include the following new features: 1, support  RSA key generation but defaultly use openssl build-in function (BN_generate_prime_ex) to create prime p, q for higher security. If need to use CAAM accelerating,  please comment Macro USE_BUILTIN_PRIME_GENERATION, but don't confirm its security. 2, Add Manufacturing-protection feature, and you can refer to manufacturing_protection_test function in asymmetric_cipher.c. 3, Support AES GCM in cryptodev. 4, git clone https://gitee.com/zxd2021-imx/meta-openssl-caam.git, git checkout Linux-4.14.78-1.1.10 and copy meta-openssl-caam to folder <Yocto 4.14.78-1.1.10 dir>/sources/ 5, Run DISTRO=fsl-imx-wayland MACHINE=imx6ulevk source fsl-setup-release.sh -b build-imx6ulevk and add BBLAYERS += " ${BSPDIR}/sources/meta-openssl-caam " into /build-imx6ulevk/conf/bblayers.conf 6, bitbake fsl-image-validation-imx 7, Run the below command on your i.MX6UL EVK board. modprobe cryptodev openssl genrsa -f4 -engine cryptodev 512 -elapsed openssl speed dsa -engine cryptodev -elapsed openssl genrsa -f4 -engine cryptodev 1024 -elapsed openssl speed rsa -engine cryptodev -elapsed openssl genrsa -f4 -engine cryptodev 2048 -elapsed openssl speed ecdsa -engine cryptodev -elapsed openssl genrsa -f4 -engine cryptodev 3072 -elapsed openssl speed ecdh -engine cryptodev -elapsed openssl genrsa -f4 -engine cryptodev 4096 -elapsed openssl speed -evp sha256 -engine cryptodev -elapsed openssl speed -evp aes-128-cbc -engine cryptodev -elapsed openssl speed -evp aes-128-ecb -engine cryptodev -elapsed openssl speed -evp aes-128-cfb -engine cryptodev -elapsed openssl speed -evp aes-128-ofb -engine cryptodev -elapsed openssl speed -evp des-ede3 -engine cryptodev -elapsed openssl speed -evp des-cbc -engine cryptodev -elapsed openssl speed -evp des-ede3-cfb -engine cryptodev -elapsed +++++++++++++++++++++++    updating for Linux-4.14.98-2.3.3 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ This updating is for Yocto release of Linux -4.14.98-2.3.3. The new software environments as the belows: Linux kernel: imx_4.14.98-2.3.3 cryptodev: 1.9 OpenSSL: 1.0.2p HW platform: i.MX6UL, i.MX7D/S, i.MX8M/8M Mini/8M Nano, i.MX8/8X.
