Hi,
I am trying to write an ABLKCIPHER algorithm for my hardware crypto
engine and I have a few questions:
1) In struct ablkcipher_alg, what do these fields do? I see some
implementations use them and some not. Do I need to implement them?
int (*givencrypt)(struct skcipher_givcrypt_reques
Hello
i'm not expert with cryptographic modules, but i played sometime with the
"authenc" module, which is AEAD, and i applied it to the filesystem "ecryptfs".
In the forwarded message i added a brief description of what i do and i hope
this can be a useful example for you.

Strange, that people can install a new kernel, but not a new
assembler.
Someone shouldn't have to upgrade their tools to build the
kernel.
The kernel would still build, just witho

And we work very hard to make sure this is the case except
in the most unavoidable situations.

Eventually you'll port the entire assembler into macros, as
instructions are introduced more frequently that people upgrade their
assemblers. Maybe we should disable the new features and warn
