Public bug reported:
Hi,
I've made an installation of Ubuntu 11.10 on a system with AES-NI instructions
only to find that the aesni_intel module is not being loaded before mounting
the root file system, leaving the system with software encryption instead of
using the hardware capabilities.
The problem I think it's due to the modules not existing on the
initramfs. Naturally, aes_x86_64 and cryptd modules aren't loaded too.
Having the kernel compiled with options
CONFIG_CRYPTO_AES=y
CONFIG_CRYPTO_AES_X86_64=y
CONFIG_CRYPTO_AES_NI_INTEL=y
instead of
CONFIG_CRYPTO_AES=y
CONFIG_CRYPTO_AES_X86_64=m
CONFIG_CRYPTO_AES_NI_INTEL=m
as it appears on "config-3.0.0-14-generic" in the /boot directory should
be OK too.
I can manually load those modules after the system boots, but then it's
not useful for my fully encrypted filesystem.
