Subject: [ptxdist] [RFC PATCH 2/2] openssl: Add option for AF_ALG support
Date: Wed,  4 Mar 2026 13:02:01 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260304120201.3180281-3-ada@thorsis.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260304120201.3180281-1-ada@thorsis.com>

There is a netlink socket based kernel interface for hardware crypto
acceleration, which can be used by openssl too, at least for some basic
aes ciphers.
