kcapi_akcipher_encrypt - encrypt data

Arguments

handle
           [in] cipher handle

       in
           [in] plaintext data buffer

       inlen
           [in] length of in buffer

       out
           [out] ciphertext data buffer

       outlen
           [in] length of out buffer

       access
           [in] kernel access type (KCAPI_ACCESS_HEURISTIC - use internal heuristic for fastest kernel access;
           KCAPI_ACCESS_VMSPLICE - use vmsplice access; KCAPI_ACCESS_SENDMSG - sendmsg access)

Description

       It is perfectly legal to use the same buffer as the plaintext and ciphertext pointers. That would mean
       that after the encryption operation, the plaintext is overwritten with the ciphertext.

       The memory should be aligned at the page boundary using posix_memalign(sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE)), If it is
       not aligned at the page boundary, the vmsplice call may not send all data to the kernel.

       If the output size is insufficiently large, -EINVAL is returned. The output buffer must be at least as
       large as the modululs of the uses key.

       return number of bytes returned by the encryption operation upon success; a negative errno-style error
       code if an error occurred
