Re: [Ocf-linux-users] help on how to use OCF for SSL v3.0 protocol's cryptographic operations

[lakshmi p. <lak...@fr...>]

Hi,

I am using OCF ixp4 crypto driver. The problem is present with cryptosoft also.
I guess I am passing wrong data to OCF to compute the MAC, can anyone 
tell me what is the correct data that is to be passed to the driver 
for SSLv3.0 protocol.

thanks,
Lakshmi Prasanna
