Hi Stephan,
I see it has lots of names hardcoded. Is it possible to extract
up-to-date list from kernel? Maybe at runtime from running kernel?
What's the max number of arguments for a template? I see there is at least 2:
rfc4106(gcm_base(ctr(aes-aesni),ghash-clmulni))
can there be more?
Do you know answer to this question by any chance?
what's the relation between alg names and type ("aead", "hash", "rng",
"skcipher")? I remember I already looked at it before and could not
figure it out. Are all algorithms and templates partitioned between
types? Or they are orthogonal?
Thanks
