Sounds like you want to look into the ocf-linux patchset. http://ocf-linux.sourceforge.net/
That said, you should realize that even if you have a hardware crypto accelerator, small encryption blocks will probably be faster in pure userland due to the penalty of kernel/userland context switches, etc. -Brad On 11/19/2010 08:31 AM, ans linux wrote:
Hi list, I am fairly new to openssl , Please excuse me if my question seems to be silly. I am planning to use openssl in custom embedded system running Linux kernel. My understanding is that by default openssl will make use of user land encryption library . Is there any way to force openssl to use in-kernel encryption module ( for instance aes.ko) . Thanks Anoop
