- .SH DESCRIPTION
- .IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
- This command is used to test the performance of cryptographic algorithms.
- .SH OPTIONS
- .IX Header "OPTIONS"
- .IP \fB\-help\fR 4
- .IX Item "-help"
- Print out a usage message.
- .IP "\fB\-config\fR \fIfilename\fR" 4
- .IX Item "-config filename"
- Specifies the configuration file to use.
- Optional; for a description of the default value,
- see "COMMAND SUMMARY" in \fBopenssl\fR\|(1).
- .IP \fB\-elapsed\fR 4
- .IX Item "-elapsed"
- When calculating operations\- or bytes-per-second, use wall-clock time
- instead of CPU user time as divisor. It can be useful when testing speed
- of hardware engines.
- .IP "\fB\-evp\fR \fIalgo\fR" 4
- .IX Item "-evp algo"
- Use the specified cipher or message digest algorithm via the EVP interface.
- If \fIalgo\fR is an AEAD cipher, then you can pass \fB\-aead\fR to benchmark a
- TLS-like sequence. And if \fIalgo\fR is a multi-buffer capable cipher, e.g.
- aes\-128\-cbc\-hmac\-sha1, then \fB\-mb\fR will time multi-buffer operation.
- .Sp
- To see the algorithms supported with this option, use
- \&\f(CW\*(C`openssl list \-digest\-algorithms\*(C'\fR or \f(CW\*(C`openssl list \-cipher\-algorithms\*(C'\fR
- command.
- .IP "\fB\-multi\fR \fInum\fR" 4
- .IX Item "-multi num"
- Run multiple operations in parallel.
- .IP "\fB\-async_jobs\fR \fInum\fR" 4
- .IX Item "-async_jobs num"
- Enable async mode and start specified number of jobs.
- .IP "\fB\-misalign\fR \fInum\fR" 4
- .IX Item "-misalign num"
- Misalign the buffers by the specified number of bytes.
- .IP "\fB\-hmac\fR \fIdigest\fR" 4
- .IX Item "-hmac digest"
- Time the HMAC algorithm using the specified message digest.
- .IP "\fB\-cmac\fR \fIcipher\fR" 4
- .IX Item "-cmac cipher"
- Time the CMAC algorithm using the specified cipher e.g.
- \&\f(CW\*(C`openssl speed \-cmac aes128\*(C'\fR.
- .IP \fB\-decrypt\fR 4
- .IX Item "-decrypt"
- Time the decryption instead of encryption. Affects only the EVP testing.
- .IP \fB\-mb\fR 4
- .IX Item "-mb"
- Enable multi-block mode on EVP-named cipher.
- .IP \fB\-aead\fR 4
- .IX Item "-aead"
- Benchmark EVP-named AEAD cipher in TLS-like sequence.
- .IP \fB\-kem\-algorithms\fR 4
- .IX Item "-kem-algorithms"
- Benchmark KEM algorithms: key generation, encapsulation, decapsulation.
- .IP \fB\-signature\-algorithms\fR 4
- .IX Item "-signature-algorithms"
- Benchmark signature algorithms: key generation, signature, verification.
- .IP "\fB\-primes\fR \fInum\fR" 4
- .IX Item "-primes num"
- Generate a \fInum\fR\-prime RSA key and use it to run the benchmarks. This option
- is only effective if RSA algorithm is specified to test.
- .IP "\fB\-seconds\fR \fInum\fR" 4
- .IX Item "-seconds num"
- Run benchmarks for \fInum\fR seconds.
- .IP "\fB\-bytes\fR \fInum\fR" 4
- .IX Item "-bytes num"
- Run benchmarks on \fInum\fR\-byte buffers. Affects ciphers, digests and the CSPRNG.
- The limit on the size of the buffer is INT_MAX \- 64 bytes, which for a 32\-bit
- int would be 2147483583 bytes.
- .IP \fB\-mr\fR 4
- .IX Item "-mr"
- Produce the summary in a mechanical, machine-readable, format.
- .IP \fB\-mlock\fR 4
- .IX Item "-mlock"
- Lock memory into RAM for more deterministic measurements.
- .IP \fB\-testmode\fR 4
- .IX Item "-testmode"
- Runs the speed command in testmode. Runs only 1 iteration of each algorithm test
- regardless of any \fB\-seconds\fR value. In the event that any operation fails then
- the speed command will return with a failure result.
- .IP "\fB\-rand\fR \fIfiles\fR, \fB\-writerand\fR \fIfile\fR" 4
- .IX Item "-rand files, -writerand file"
- See "Random State Options" in \fBopenssl\fR\|(1) for details.
- .IP "\fB\-engine\fR \fIid\fR" 4
- .IX Item "-engine id"
- See "Engine Options" in \fBopenssl\fR\|(1).
- This option is deprecated.
- .IP "\fB\-provider\fR \fIname\fR" 4
- .IX Item "-provider name"
- .PD 0
- .IP "\fB\-provider\-path\fR \fIpath\fR" 4
- .IX Item "-provider-path path"
- .IP "\fB\-propquery\fR \fIpropq\fR" 4
- .IX Item "-propquery propq"
- .PD
- See "Provider Options" in \fBopenssl\fR\|(1), \fBprovider\fR\|(7), and \fBproperty\fR\|(7).
- .IP "\fIalgorithm\fR ..." 4
- .IX Item "algorithm ..."
- If any \fIalgorithm\fR is given, then those algorithms are tested, otherwise a
- pre-compiled grand selection is tested.
- .SH BUGS
- .IX Header "BUGS"
- The \fIalgorithm\fR can be selected only from a pre-compiled subset of things
- that the \f(CW\*(C`openssl speed\*(C'\fR command knows about. To test any additional digest
- or cipher algorithm supported by OpenSSL use the \f(CW\*(C`\-evp\*(C'\fR option.
- .PP
- There is no way to test the speed of any additional public key algorithms
- supported by third party providers with the \f(CW\*(C`openssl speed\*(C'\fR command.
- .SH HISTORY
- .IX Header "HISTORY"
- The \fB\-engine\fR option was deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0.
- .PP
- DSA512 was removed in OpenSSL 3.2.
- .PP
- The \fB\-testmode\fR option was added in OpenSSL 3.4.
