The Linux cryptographic driver is called z90crypt, and the source code for that driver has been available, open source, in the Linux kernel for a number of years now. Just look for z90crypt source at your favorite kernel source download site. The IBM download site is located here:
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/linux390 The z90crypt driver is loadable via modprobe, or you can compile it into the kernel. You can do a cat /proc/driver/z90crypt to see status of the driver and underlying hardware. The various bits that sit on top of z90crypt (libica, openCryptoki) are also available in open source form. (OpenSSL can use these libraries.) See: http://sourceforge.net/projects/opencryptoki You may also want to look at the manual entitled "Linux on zSeries Device Drivers and Installation Commands" which has a little more detail on z90crypt. I can't say I've looked at the z90crypt code at all, but hopefully this info will give you some assistance. - - - - - Timothy F.
