Hi,

Can I use kernel Crypto API from user space?
I remember 2 or 3 projects about it.

But what is the one and only one I need? :)

Thanks,
Dmitry

I don't know which is the one you need, but I know the one I use. Check

Hi,

BTW.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/herbert/cryptodev-2.6.git

Has this kernel anything about cryptodev as well?

Thanks,

Thanks for this link, I never know about it.

So far, I wrote my own driver to access kernel crypto API with certain fops (read/write/ioctls).
