EU Specific Data Packet Descriptors

MCF548x Reference Manual, Rev. 3

Freescale Semiconductor

22-105

The primary EU is the AFEU, with its mode bits set to cause the AFEU to load the key and initialize the

AFEU S-box for data permutation. The descriptor does not designate a secondary EU, so the setting of the

snoop type bit is ignored.

At the conclusion of inbound TLS descriptor 1, the AFEU has decrypted the TLS record so that the payload

and HMAC are readable. The negotiation of the TLS session should provide the receiver with enough

information about the session parameters (hash algorithm for HMAC, whether padding is in use) to create

inbound descriptor 2 along with descriptor 1. If so, the next descriptor pointer field should point to

descriptor 2.
Alternatively, the SEC could signal DONE at the conclusion of inbound descriptor 1 to allow the host to

inspect the decrypted record, and generate the descriptor necessary to validate the HMAC. If this is the

case, inbound descriptor 2 does not need to be linked to inbound descriptor 1, and could even be processed

by a different crypto-channel.
The second descriptor, shown in

Table 22-110

, performs the HMAC of the record header and the record

payload. The primary EU is the MDEU, with its mode bits set to cause the MDEU to initialize its context

registers, perform auto-padding if the data size is not evenly divisible by 512 bits, and calculate an HMAC.

The descriptor header does not designate a secondary EU, so the setting of the snoop type bit is ignored.
