Any hints? Can you send me the output of cpuid-etallen? It's pretty long, so maybe off list would be better... It's from a port of the same name... Also, it looks like a microcode update could fix this issue, have you tried to look at that? https://albertveli.wordpress.com/2013/03/05/aes-ni-enabled/ Looks very similar to your issue, though it's a different microarch.. Your's is a Haswell that has the TSX bug in it, and it could be that the bios is disabling too many feature bits... Have you made sure that your machine has the latest BIOS? A newer BIOS could reenable the feature too... > [...] > FreeBSD clang version 3.6.1 (tags/RELEASE_361/final 237755) 20150525 > VT: running with driver "efifb". > CPU: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-1650 v3 _at_ 3.50GHz (3491.98-MHz K8-class CPU) > Origin="GenuineIntel" Id=0x306f2 Family=0x6 Model=0x3f Stepping=2 > Features=0xbfebfbff<FPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,APIC,SEP,MTRR,PGE,MCA,CMOV,PAT,PSE36,CLFLUSH,DTS,ACPI,MMX,FXSR,SSE,SSE2,SS,HTT,TM,PBE> > Features2=0x7dfefbff<SSE3,PCLMULQDQ,DTES64,MON,DS_CPL,VMX,SMX,EST,TM2,SSSE3,SDBG,FMA,CX16,xTPR,PDCM,PCID,DCA,SSE4.1,SSE4.2,x2APIC,MOVBE,POPCNT,TSCDLT,XSAVE,OSXSAVE,AVX,F16C,RDRAND> There should be an AESNI feature on this line, but clearly not...
