This change set modifies build metadata to add support for ppc64le
(POWER9) and riscv64 (RISC-V). The arm64 and amd64 assembler
implementations are architecture specific and do not support ppc64le or
riscv64. On ppc64le or riscv64 a generic implementation is chosen. The
drbg/internal/aes/cipher_noasm.go file was written by @mixmasala and
myself.
The csidh and sidh tests are extremely slow (>30m) on RISC-V using the
sifive,u54-mc (HiFive Unleashed) development board. The test timeout is
set to infinity on RISC-V by the top level Makefile as at least one test
does not finish within the default 10 minutes on RISC-V. On RISC-V the
csidh test finishes after around 30 minutes, the sidh test finishes
after around 71 minutes.
These changes were tested with amd64 (Intel Core i7), arm64 (Raspberry
Pi 4b), ppc64le (Talos POWER9, PowerNV T2P9D01 REV 1.00), and riscv64
(HighFive Unleashed, rv64imafdc,sifive,u54-mc).
