The refactored sshaes.c gives me a convenient slot to drop in a second hardware-accelerated AES implementation, similar to the existing one but using Arm NEON intrinsics in place of the x86 AES-NI ones. This needed a minor structural change, because Arm systems are often heterogeneous, containing more than one type of CPU which won't necessarily all support the same set of architecture features. So you can't test at run time for the presence of AES acceleration by querying the CPU you're running on - even if you found a way to do it, the answer wouldn't be reliable once the OS started migrating your process between CPUs. Instead, you have to ask the OS itself, because only that knows about _all_ the CPUs on the system. So that means the aes_hw_available() mechanism has to extend a tentacle into each platform subdirectory. The trickiest part was the nest of ifdefs that tries to detect whether the compiler can support the necessary parts. I had successful test-compiles on several compilers, and was able to run the code directly on an AArch64 tablet (so I know it passes cryptsuite), but it's likely that at least some Arm platforms won't be able to build it because of some path through the ifdefs that I haven't been able to test yet. |

PuTTY README
============
This is the README file for the PuTTY installer distribution. If
you're reading this, you've probably just run our installer and
installed PuTTY on your system.
What should I do next?
----------------------
If you want to use PuTTY to connect to other computers, or use PSFTP
to transfer files, you should just be able to run them from the
Start menu.
If you want to use the command-line-only file transfer utility PSCP,
you will probably want to put the PuTTY installation directory on
your PATH. On Windows 7 and similar versions, you can do this at
Control Panel > System and Security > System > Advanced system
settings > Environment Variables.
Some versions of Windows will refuse to run HTML Help files (.CHM)
if they are installed on a network drive. If you have installed
PuTTY on a network drive, you might want to check that the help file
works properly. If not, see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/896054
for information on how to solve this problem.
What do I do if it doesn't work?
--------------------------------
The PuTTY home web site is
https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
Here you will find our list of known bugs and pending feature
requests. If your problem is not listed in there, or in the FAQ, or
in the manuals, read the Feedback page to find out how to report
bugs to us. PLEASE read the Feedback page carefully: it is there to
save you time as well as us. Do not send us one-line bug reports
telling us `it doesn't work'.
