Subject: [ANNOUNCE] New Year Acrypto release.
Date: Fri, 23 Dec 2005 18:22:11 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20051223152211.GA13500@2ka.mipt.ru> (raw)

Hello.
I'm pleased to announce new release of asynchronous crypto layer for
linux kernel 2.6.
Small changelog:

* Removed crypto load balancer thread.
* Eliminated main_crypto_dev.
* Removed unused session states.
* Simplified locking and reference counting.
* Simplified load balancing schema.
* Simple load balancer is part of acrypto module now.
* Added direct completion mode. If session's
  callback can be invoked in any context or
  if crypto provider can call   complete_session() from process context,
  one can set SESSION_DIRECT in session flags which will lead to callback
  invocation directly from  complete_session(), but not from workqueue.

* Here are dm-crypt port changes:
	o Reduced memory usage.
	o Use memory pools.
	o Removed several race conditions.
	o Code simplification.

More info can be found at the project's homepage:

Tarball and patches against the latest tree can be found in archive:
