How do I match up Speed application Options to engine functions

[Jo Tingley]

Trying to the test available engine functions, on our hardware to make sure they work, and also compare rates to software.  The following are the hardware functions that I have available:

openssl engine -c                                                
(dynamic) Dynamic engine loading support                                        
(ibmca) Ibmca hardware engine support                                          
 [RSA, DSA, DH, RAND, DES-ECB, DES-CBC, DES-EDE3, DES-EDE3-CBC, AES-128-ECB, AES
-128-CBC, AES-192-ECB, AES-192-CBC, AES-256-ECB, AES-256-CBC, SHA1, SHA256]    

My question is how do I match up the OPENSSL SPEED application options to the hardware support?  Is this even possible?

I.E.  openssl speed -engine ibmca sha1

Does the above example exercise the sha1 support on the hardware?  Or do I have to use something else?

Thanks,

Joe T.
