I've been asked to integrate another hardware accelerator ... this one does symmetric ciphers, too ... one of its features is that it works better if given more than one block at a time. The obvious way to handle this is to modify the EVP_CIPHER to include a blocking factor (or chunk size or whatever you prefer) and add a "number of blocks" parameter to the encrypt() member - is there any reason not to do this?
