| 2 | ===================== |

| 4 | Please note that the kernel crypto API contains the AEAD givcrypt API |
| 5 | (crypto_aead_giv\* and aead_givcrypt\* function calls in |
| 6 | include/crypto/aead.h). This API is obsolete and will be removed in the |
| 7 | future. To obtain the functionality of an AEAD cipher with internal IV |
| 8 | generation, use the IV generator as a regular cipher. For example, |
| 9 | rfc4106(gcm(aes)) is the AEAD cipher with external IV generation and |
| 10 | seqniv(rfc4106(gcm(aes))) implies that the kernel crypto API generates |
| 11 | the IV. Different IV generators are available. |
