Description

> merged into the `aes` crate

| Details | |
| ------------------- | ---------------------------------------------- |
| Status | unmaintained |
| Package | `aes-soft` |
| Version | `0.6.4` |
| URL | [https://github.com/RustCrypto/block-ciphers/pull/200](https://github.com/RustCrypto/block-ciphers/pull/200) |
| Date | 2021-04-29 |

The `aes-soft` crate has been merged into the `aes` crate. The new repository
location is at:

<https://github.com/RustCrypto/block-ciphers/tree/master/aes>

AES-NI is now autodetected at runtime on `i686`/`x86-64` platforms.
If AES-NI is not present, the `aes` crate will fallback to a constant-time
portable software implementation.

To force the use of a constant-time portable implementation on these platforms,
even if AES-NI is available, use the new `force-soft` feature of the `aes`
crate to disable autodetection.
