  Description     : kernel module for accessing Linux kernel cryptographic drivers

 Cryptodev-linux is a device that allows access to Linux kernel
 cryptographic drivers; thus allowing of userspace applications to take
 advantage of hardware accelerators. Cryptodev-linux is implemented as a
 standalone module that requires no dependencies other than a stock
 linux kernel. Its API is compatible with OpenBSD's cryptodev userspace
 API (/dev/crypto).

Hi,

Is there any interest from you to keep the ITP? Is anyone still
interested on this package?

I know Texas Instruments is packaging for their modules, maybe they
would be interested... (CC'ing them) I could help on this if there is
interest from you guys to have this stuff in Debian instead of keeping
it downstream.

Cheers,
