Hi Herbert, David,

may I inquire for the plans with algif_akcipher? The reason I am asking is 
whether this interface may be accepted or whether a key rings based solution 
is used and whether I can leave or remove the akcipher related API from my 
libkcapi.

Thanks a lot
Stephan

I do plan to add something like this eventually.  However, at this
point in time I'd like to see akcipher itself mature a bit before
we set it in stone with a user-space interface.

Cheers,
