Package: linux-image-2.6-486 Version: 2.6.39-3~bpo60+1 Severity: normal Tags: patch
Kernel does not provide the af_alg module. The .config file should contain the following values: CONFIG_CRYPTO_USER_API=m CONFIG_CRYPTO_USER_API_HASH=m CONFIG_CRYPTO_USER_API_SKCIPHER=m These two options enables the user-spaces interface for hash and symmetric key cipher algorithms. Kernel 2.6.38 introduced an API to access the kernel crypto API from userspace. While there was a port of BSD's cryptodev for linux which basically provides the same functionality, the cryptodev code never made it into the mainline of the kernel.
