AEAD is just an interface which doesn't use hashing directly. If you mean the authenc algorithm which combines encryption and hashing then yes it will be changed. That would be a fairly straightforward change too. > to asychronous interface? In addition, most of the existent device driver I'm not aware of any ongoing work so any contributions in this area would definitely be welcome. > only use synchronous interface. Are there any one changing them to > asynchronous crypto interface - such as NETKEY (Linux IPSec)? That I am working on right now :) See the recent 24 patche set I posted to netdev. What's missing now is just the change to get ESP to actually use AEAD.
