[Ocf-linux-users] first time user

[Jan J. K. <ja...@ni...>]

hi all,

I'm trying to use ocf for the first time - the concept looks great, and 
I am very curious how the ocf drivers will perform compared to the 
(latest) openssl assembly code. However, I cannot even get a simple 
'cryptotest' to run on my Fedora 14 laptop:

[root@beijaflor crypto-tools]# uname -a

[root@beijaflor crypto-tools]# ./cryptotest
cryptotest: /dev/crypto: No such device

what am I doing wrong here? also, 'openssl engine -v' will not list the 
cryptodev engine

Final question: is/will there be support for the cryptodev engine in 
openssl 1.0+ ?

TIA,

JJK
