Hi, We are doing Linux Async Crypto drivers for HW accelerators (AES, DES/3DES, SHA1/MD5) and kernel version we are using now is 2.6.37. Since user space APIs for Linux Crypto are still under development and not available in 2.6.37, we are looking at putting OCF on top of Linux crypto APIs. We see that there is cryptosoft module in OCF package which can translate between OCF requests and Linux crypto requests. Does anybody know if cryptosoft can practically be used as a bridge to handle all possible OpenSSL use cases? If it can not, is there any other existing software that is able to perform as a bridge? Many thanks in advance! Bin |
