[CryptoAPI-devel] 2.2 backporting

[Herbert V. R. <hv...@hv...>]

fyi; I've checked in a few light modifications, which make the
cryptoapi-core code compile against a 2.2.20 kernel;

now there's just a loop patch needed... we should be able to simply use
jari's 2.2 loop patch, and add the following lines to loop.h

/* definitions for IV metric */
#define LOOP_IV_SECTOR_BITS 9
#define LOOP_IV_SECTOR_SIZE (1 << LOOP_IV_SECTOR_BITS)

typedef int loop_iv_t;

and then cryptoapi may work on 2.2 as well... (hint, need testers!)

ps: any volunteer to take jari's loop-patches and extract everything
except the ciphers (as done with the loop-jari-patch)?

regards,
