U-BOOT missing Security support
Hello, I was attempting to enable CONFIG_CMD_AES and I though it would be under security support. Is there any reason why that option would not be enabled or available? Thanks

Search under "Security commands"...
from "cmd/Kconfig":
.... 1975 menu "Security commands" 1976 config CMD_AES 1977 bool "Enable the 'aes' command" 1978 select AES 1979 help 1980 This provides a means to encrypt and decrypt data using the AES 1981 (Advanced Encryption Standard). This algorithm uses a symetric key 1982 and is widely used as a streaming cipher. Different key lengths are 1983 supported by the algorithm but this command only supports 128 bits 1984 at present. 1985 ....

Thank you My only question now is how do I set the AES key I though this would be an option in kconfig as well or is this an option for the command itself?
