All combinations are possible, and it is up to the implementation to decide.

I'm currently working on adding rsa support to the qat driver. Once that will
be finished my plan was to add AF_ALG interface for it.
That will be in a few weeks time though since I'm on vacation next two weeks.
If you have already started on AF_ALG you are more than welcome to do it.
For me the most important thing will that it needs to be asynchronous.
