Hello Herbert,
back in 2019 you wrote that akcipher is still in a state of flux and
not ready to be exposed to userspace via AF_ALG [1].
Has this changed since then?
I am asking because I am implementing another driver [2] for a device
which allows for signing messages with an ECDSA private key securely
stored inside the device, and Greg asks again [3] for this to be
exposed to userspace via a dedicated kernel API, instead of
debugfs.
Back in 2019 when we needed this for the turris-mox-rwtm driver, I
implemented it via debugfs because akcipher was not ready.
Thanks.
Marek
