It doesn't really matter because all implementations must provide exactly the same set of parameters for a given algorithm so it's good enough for what Stephan wants to do. But yes an interface to grab the highest priority algorithm would be useful too so patches are welcome :) Cheers, -- Email: Herbert Xu <herbert@...dor.apana.org.au> Home Page: http://gondor.apana.org.au/~herbert/ PGP Key: http://gondor.apana.org.au/~herbert/pubkey.txt -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
