xref: /freebsd/crypto/README (revision 2e3f49888ec8851bafb22011533217487764fdb0)
1This directory is for the EXACT same use as src/contrib, except it
2holds crypto sources.  In other words, this holds raw sources obtained
3from various third party vendors, with FreeBSD patches applied.  No
4compilation is done from this directory, it is all done from the
5src/secure directory.  The separation between src/contrib and src/crypto
6is the result of an old USA law, which made these sources export
7controlled, so they had to be kept separate.
