Zoran.Radenkovic> We are currently producing an OpenSSL/mod_ssl/Apache
Zoran.Radenkovic> solution that uses our new h/w accelerator card
Zoran.Radenkovic> CSA8000. This card talks to the host using PKCS#11
Zoran.Radenkovic> interface and it plugs-in to OpenSSL via engine
Zoran.Radenkovic> API. Currently it supports 0.9.6 version (in next
[...]
Zoran.Radenkovic> We got approval from management to opensource this
Zoran.Radenkovic> patch for openssl if there is an interest.
There definitely is an interest, it's been asked for a number of
times.
Zoran.Radenkovic> It would be great if we can catch the train for
Zoran.Radenkovic> 0.9.7. How far is it?
There's been a few changes, especially on how to find the vendor-
specific shared library (on in your case, a PKCS#11 library :-)).
Nothing really enormous for the engines themselves, at least yet.
Zoran.Radenkovic> I have few questions if we go further:
[...]
Zoran.Radenkovic> b) Does openssl development team have any means to
Zoran.Radenkovic> test it with criptoki implementation. Because
Zoran.Radenkovic> CSA8000 will be released in next few weeks it will
Zoran.Radenkovic> be very hard to get handle to one adapter.
If no-one in the development team has such access, there may be others
on this list who do.
Zoran.Radenkovic> c) Is it sufficient to give you a patch for 0.9.6a
Zoran.Radenkovic> or we need to port it on 0.9.7 shapshot first.
A 0.9.6a patch will be sufficient.
