Cover letter [RFC 0/3] Experiments with AES-AltiVec

I tried to use SIMD instructions for AES. This is stage 1 with AltiVec support, the next will be on SPUs. Unfortunately it is slower than the generic code on my ps3. It might be faster on some other machine. I'm interrested in hearing numbers from other people.
