What kind of hardware device do you have? Maybe you could do all the stuff in the engine module itself, similar to what I do in the VIA PadLock engine module: http://www.logix.cz/michal/devel/padlock/ (I'm not using any external libraries nor calls to the kernel) Or leave it in the separate shared library, but entirely in the userspace, i.e. no context switches to kernel through /dev/something. It only depends on what the hardware needs and offers...
