[Ocf-linux-users] CIOCKEY & hifn7751driver

[John G. <joh...@ta...>]

Hi Folks

 

Is there any reason why the hifn 7751 driver doesn't support the CIOCKEY
operation to facilitate in diffie-hellman calculations (a^b mod m)?

 

It seems there are some #defines for HIFN_VULCANDEV which appear to be
related to using the private/public key stuff which the card supports
from 'user mode' but I can't seem to find out much about this.

 

Seems like the right way to expose this functionality is via CIOCKEY

 

Any insight appreciated

 

Cheers

 

John
