I'm sorry, since I work in a pretty restricted area, I can not offer webspace-similar download areas, but if it is not offending the list, i could provide a compressed output. Find the output attached xz-compressed ...

On another machine, also Fujitsu, but a 19 inch rack server module with a low energy XEON E5-12XXv3, I can clearly see the AESNI feature in Feature2 list and, conclusively, the aesni0 device is present and reported. > > [...] > > > aesni0: No AESNI support. > > [...] > > Which is why you get this... > I applied the port sysutils/cpuid to another system, runnin a i5-4200M mobile CPU (Lenovo notebook). The rows indicating family = Intel ... (simple synth) = ... look much more "modern" for my opinion as the output I provided shows on the CPU in question. It is just a hunch ... Seems, I've bought Intel(ian) crap ;-) with no features and from another mellenium ... oh
