1 Programming Interface
2 =====================
4 Please note that the kernel crypto API contains the AEAD givcrypt API
5 (crypto_aead_giv\* and aead_givcrypt\* function calls in
6 include/crypto/aead.h). This API is obsolete and will be removed in the
7 future. To obtain the functionality of an AEAD cipher with internal IV
8 generation, use the IV generator as a regular cipher. For example,
9 rfc4106(gcm(aes)) is the AEAD cipher with external IV generation and
10 seqniv(rfc4106(gcm(aes))) implies that the kernel crypto API generates
11 the IV. Different IV generators are available.
