Hi..
I'm writing a program which I want to list the available ciphers in the
current kernel setup. I've discovered that in /proc/crypto/cipher there
are files to tell me what ciphers are available but for each cipher
there seems to be three files eg..
blowfish-cbc
blowfish-cfb
blowfish-ecb
my thoughts are, i can test if one of the blowfish file exists, and if
it does then i must have support for blowfish. but i don't know why
there are three files. i can't seem to figure out what they mean, and if
everyone has all of them.
thanks
andrew
