It would be also nice if it could also be used by openssl userland applications. Also I would like to know if there are some plans to support IDE drives which do AES transparently for the OS. Like an ATA Command which tells the drive which AES key to use during startup. An the rest does the device instead of the hostos/cpu. Thomas
