You will also need "cryptodev" in addition to "crypto".
"crypto" manages only in-kernel access to the cryptographic
facilities (including hardware acceleration through the
padlock driver), which is used by FAST_IPSEC, for example.
"cryptodev" will enable access by userland applications
(e.g. scp) and libraries (OpenSSL) through /dev/crypto.


With OpenSSL you have two choices:
engine cryptodev : uses /dev/crypto
engine padlock : uses the xcrypt commands directly

engine padlock should be the fastest of course.
