algif for compression?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I see the algif_hash and algif_blkcipher implementations to allow
userspace AF_ALG socket access to kernel blkcipher and hash
algorithms, but has anyone done a algif_compression to allow userspace
access to compression algs?  I'm asking specifically wrt the 842
crypto module, which uses the hardware compression coprocessors on
newer powerpc systems.

If not, is there any reason against adding a algif_compression to
provide the access?

Thanks!
