Hi, I'm trying to do RSA verification inside a LKM. It seems that the linux crypto API does not support this. Today I found cryptodev which presumable can do this.
The setting is that a user land app will pass the public key to there kernel module (OT: via a new syscall), which will then verify something with it. Compile of the tests worked find and I can use the stand-alone module. I read that there is the need to patch the kernel in order to be able to use the device from a LKM. Where can I find this patch? Maybe there is even another way to do this. Cheers, André -- Dipl.-Inform.
