[CryptoAPI-devel] TODO list

[David B. <db...@du...>]

I noticed that in the move to the new module the TODO, was missing.=20
That may have been intentional ;-) but i'm not sure.  So at any rate I
thought i'd ask which ones of these were still needed:

TODO list
~~~~~~~~~

short term:

*) fix items listed in file BUGS and find new ones (without introducing=20
   them... ;-)

*) support for monolithic kernels (i.e. non-modular cryptoapi)

*) verify ciphers against known test vectors
   (especially non-AES ciphers)

*) user space tool for converting encrypted volumes between different=20
   IV blocksizes, passphrases, key lengths, ciphers...
(tests/cvt_crypt.c)

*) check for byte order portability issues=20

*) support 2.2.x kernel eventually

long term:

*) user space library containing ciphers and cryptoapi

*) improve API design

*) in-place encryption

*) swap space encryption

---------------------------
I believe that it already has monolithic kernel support, but please
correct me if i'm wrong.  I finally have gotten a chance to poke around
the sources(eek gnu indentation =3D=3D evil, we should be using 1TBS) and
it's all very exciting stuff ;-)
