From e853c3cfa8cc24869ecd2526e589bcb176bc12e9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Herbert Xu Date: Tue, 22 Aug 2006 00:06:54 +1000 Subject: [CRYPTO] api: Added crypto_type support This patch adds the crypto_type structure which will be used for all new crypto algorithm types, beginning with block ciphers. The primary purpose of this abstraction is to allow different crypto_type objects for crypto algorithms of the same type, in particular, there will be a different crypto_type objects for asynchronous algorithms.
