Yes. > Is that the same as this change from > long ago? > http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/zfs-code/2007-March/000448.html Slightly different implementation - in particular it doesn't use PKCS#11 in userland only libmd. It also falls back to direct sha256 if the crypto framework call crypto_mech2id() call fails - this is needed to support ZFS boot. -- Darren J Moffat _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
