Hello list (cc: Herbert, Christoph),
In my previous mail you will find a proposed patch to
implement XTS (a block cipher mode alike LRW, but unlike

it's own key)). An email from Cristoph sparked my interest,
and the lrw.c file was a

Main module, this implements the Liskov Rivest Wagner block cipher mode
in the new blockcipher API. The implementation is based on ecb.c.
The LRW-32-AES specification I used can be found at:
