1 Kernel Crypto API Interface Specification
7 The kernel crypto API offers a rich set of cryptographic ciphers as well
9 This document contains a description of the API and provides example
12 To understand and properly use the kernel crypto API a brief explanation
13 of its structure is given. Based on the architecture, the API can be
16 the API function call documentation are given at the end.
18 The kernel crypto API refers to all algorithms as "transformations".
20 cryptographic operations, the kernel crypto API also knows compression
23 The kernel crypto API serves the following entity types:
28 called by consumers using the kernel crypto API
30 This specification is intended for consumers of the kernel crypto API as
31 well as for developers implementing ciphers. This API specification,
32 however, does not discuss all API calls available to data transformation
35 register with the kernel crypto API).
50 transformation objects is held by a crypto API consumer or another
51 transformation. Transformation object is allocated when a crypto API
57 following phases that are reflected in the API calls applicable to such
63 where the cipher handle must be furnished to every API call.
67 When using the initialization API calls, a cipher handle is created and
69 API calls that refer to the data structure type a consumer is expected
70 to receive and subsequently to use. The initialization API calls have
