I have Raspberry Pi 4 B (4GB version), I wonder if it supports AES hardware acceleration (so some special instruction set for CPU for faster encryption).

According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AES_instruction_set it says that architecture ARMv8-A (CPUs ARM Cortex-A30/50/70) supports AES hardware acceleration, and Raspberry Pi 4 B uses Broadcom BCM2711, Quad core Cortex-A72 (ARM v8) 64-bit so CPU should support hardware acceleration, right?

Is there any special requirements to enable AES hardware acceleration on Raspberry Pi 4 B? Like special libraries or system images / kernel?
