Unfortunately I am not seeing a speed up with this patch, but it does decrease CPU usage. Only (currently) runs on the outbound path, as the in-bound path is in an interrupt, but that can be fixed in Linux. v2: - Do not include the FPU version, as +10% performance on POWER8 (admittedly better on really old CPUs, like old world macs) is not worth it, especially when there is a fast VSX version available. - Honor CONFIG_VSX.

WireGuard — fast, modern, secure kernel VPN tunnel
by Jason A. Donenfeld of Edge Security
WireGuard is a novel VPN that runs inside the Linux Kernel and utilizes state-of-the-art cryptography. It aims to be faster, simpler, leaner, and more useful than IPsec, while avoiding the massive headache. It intends to be considerably more performant than OpenVPN. WireGuard is designed as a general purpose VPN for running on embedded interfaces and super computers alike, fit for many different circumstances. It runs over UDP.
