openssl: Enable assembler optimizations for aarch64
OpenSSL is built with the generic linux settings for most targets, including aarch64. These generic settings are designed for 32-bit CPU and provide no assembler optmization: this is widely suboptimal for aarch64. This patch simply switches to the aarch64 settings that are already available in OpenSSL. Here is the output of "openssl speed" before the optimization, with "(...)" representing build flags that didn't change: OpenSSL 1.0.2l 25 May 2017 options:bn(64,32) rc4(ptr,char) des(idx,cisc,2,int) aes(partial) blowfish(ptr) compiler: aarch64-openwrt-linux-musl-gcc (...) And after this patch, OpenSSL uses 64 bit mode and assembler optimizations: OpenSSL 1.0.2l 25 May 2017 options:bn(64,64) rc4(ptr,char) des(idx,cisc,2,int) aes(partial) blowfish(ptr) compiler: aarch64-openwrt-linux-musl-gcc (...) -DSHA1_ASM -DSHA256_ASM -DSHA512_ASM Here are some benchmarks on a pine64+ running latest LEDE master r5142-20d363aed3: before# openssl speed sha aes blowfish The 'numbers' are in 1000s of bytes per second processed. type 16 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes sha1 3918.89k 9982.43k 19148.03k 24933.03k 27325.78k sha256 4604.51k 10240.64k 17472.51k 21355.18k 22801.07k sha512 3662.19k 14539.41k 21443.16k 29544.11k 33177.60k blowfish cbc 16266.63k 16940.86k 17176.92k 17237.33k 17252.35k aes-128 cbc 19712.95k 21447.40k 22091.09k 22258.35k 22304.09k aes-192 cbc 17680.12k 19064.47k 19572.14k 19703.13k 19737.26k aes-256 cbc 15986.67k 17132.48k 17537.28k 17657.17k 17689.26k after# openssl speed sha aes blowfish type 16 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes sha1 6770.87k 26172.80k 86878.38k 205649.58k 345978.20k sha256 20913.93k 74663.85k 184658.18k 290891.09k 351032.66k sha512 7633.10k 30110.14k 50083.24k 71883.43k 82485.25k blowfish cbc 16224.93k 16933.55k 17173.76k 17234.94k 17252.35k aes-128 cbc 19425.74k 21193.31k 22065.74k 22304.77k 22380.54k aes-192 cbc 17452.29k 18883.84k 19536.90k 19741.70k 19800.06k aes-256 cbc 15815.89k 17003.01k 17530.03k 17695.40k 17746.60k For some reason AES and blowfish do not benefit, but SHA performance improves between 1.7x and 15x.

However, AES performance is improved between 5.5x and 27.5x, which is really impressive! For aes-128-cbc on large blocks, a core i7-6600U @2.60GHz is only twice as fast...
