.Hardware optimization enabled in `libgcrypt` when in the FIPS mode
Previously, the Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS 140-2) did not allow using hardware optimization. Therefore, in previous versions of RHEL, the operation was disabled in the `libgcrypt` package when in the FIPS mode. RHEL 9 enables hardware optimization in FIPS mode, and as a result, all cryptographic operations are performed faster.
