dm-crypt embedded?

Hi!

I am planning to develop a hardware storage which encrypts all data
transparent to the user and operating system. Therefore cryptographic
operations will be implemented in the device (e.g. on an ARM processor)
and not on the client's computer. The embedded processor will not be
capable to run a Linux kernel but it will have enough resources to
process the encryption/decryption only. I don't know dm-crypt's code yet
but for my understanding dm-crypt is a promising candidate to start such
a project based on. In this context dm-crypt's core functions would be
ported to the device's processor.

Do you think dm-crypt is a promising candidate to be ported to a
specific processor (e.g. ARM) without a Linux kernel? Are there already
similar projects to reuse or to learn from?

Best regards
