This is from akchiper_alg documentation: * @set_pub_key: Function invokes the algorithm specific set public key * function, which knows how to decode and interpret * the BER encoded public key and parameters No struct, no size information and no description what they are used for. Can we get these properly documented? My documentation at the moment is grep and kprobes, literally. BR, Jarkko
