Subject: International kernel patch v2.1.131.4

International kernel patch 2.1.131.4 is available.  The idea of the
patch is to collect all crypto patches so that using crypto in the
kernel will be easier than today.
  
The patch is available from:

ftp://ftp.kerneli.org/pub/linux/kerneli/v2.1/patch-int-2.1.131.4.gz

The new feature of this release is that CIPE 1.2.0 was added and that
the ciphers are now modular.  Some work is needed to add idea and
blowfish to the cipher-api and convert CIPE to use this api.

The following has changed since the last announcement (2.1.130.1):

1998-12-14  Alexander Kjeldaas  <astor@guardian.no>

        * International kernel patch 2.1.131.4 released.

        * Added util-linux-2.9e patch to Documentation/crypto that
        makes all the loopback ciphers available to the losetup utility.

1998-12-12  Alexander Kjeldaas  <astor@guardian.no>

        * International kernel patch 2.1.131.3 released.

        * Added the popular CIPE (crypto IP encapsulation) made by 
        Olaf Titz <olaf@bigred.inka.de>

        * Previous patch wouldn't build.  International kernel patch
        2.1.131.2 released.

1998-12-11  Alexander Kjeldaas  <astor@guardian.no>

        * International kernel patch 2.1.131.1 released.

        * Clear sensitive memory before kfree in generel loop module.  New
        upstream kernel.

1998-12-11  Patrice Lacroix  <tootix@writeme.com>

        * Modular ciphers

On the ftp-site, the directory /pub/linux/kernel is a normal
kernel-mirror while /pub/linux/kerneli is a kernel-mirror plus the
international kernel patch.  You should find all utilities needed for
using crypto in the kernel in /pub/linux/kerneli/net-source/.

Enjoy,

astor
