29.Os
30.Sh NAME
31.Nm ossl
32.Nd "driver using OpenSSL assembly routines"
33.Sh SYNOPSIS
34To compile this driver into the kernel,
35place the following lines in your
36kernel configuration file:
37.Bd -ragged -offset indent
38.Cd "device crypto"
39.Cd "device cryptodev"
40.Cd "device ossl"
41.Ed
42.Pp
43Alternatively, to load the driver as a
44module at boot time, place the following line in
45.Xr loader.conf 5 :
46.Bd -literal -offset indent
47ossl_load="YES"
48.Ed
49.Sh DESCRIPTION
50The OpenSSL distribution includes architecture-specific
51implementations for some commonly used cryptographic algorithms.
52This driver adds a wrapper around these routines permitting them to be
53used by in-kernel cryptography consumers such as kernel TLS and IPsec.
