Hi Darren,

Thank you for the update.
Have you got any ETA (build number) for the crypto project?

Also, is there any word on if this will support the hardware crypto stuff
in the VIA CPUs natively?  That would be nice. :)

ZFS Crypto uses the Solaris Cryptographics Framework to do the actual
encryption work, so ZFS is agnostic to any hardware crypto acceleration.

The Cryptographic Framework project on OpenSolaris.org is looking for help
in implementing VIA Padlock support for the Solaris Cryptographic Framework:
