Dear gurus: I'd like to modify the kernel to load a encrypted initrd. While loading the initial ramdisk, kernel reads secret key from somewhere else and decrypts initrd, and then continues the boot process. However, I met a problem. Since there are crypto libraries reside in kernel, I believe that's the best resource for me to implement this mechanism. At first I followed the interfaces found in crypto/api.c, but found it is loads crypto-algorithms from modules. Even after I configured an algo as build-in module (say, aes), I always failed at its initialization stage. (crypto_alloc_blkcipher returns error) Please give me suggestions. Am I on a right course? -- Best regards, Hong-Bin blog: http://furseal.wordpress.com msn: benjamin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-crypto" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
