modulename: twofish-avx-x86_64.ko

configname: CONFIG_CRYPTO_TWOFISH_AVX_X86_64

Linux Kernel Configuration
└─>Cryptographic API
└─>Twofish cipher algorithm (x86_64/AVX)
In linux kernel since version 3.1 (release Date: 2011-10-24)  
Twofish cipher algorithm (x86_64/AVX).

Twofish was submitted as an AES (Advanced Encryption Standard)
candidate cipher by researchers at CounterPane Systems. It is a
16 round block cipher supporting key sizes of 128, 192, and 256
bits.

This module provides the Twofish cipher algorithm that processes
eight blocks parallel using the AVX Instruction Set.
