Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.

This patch introduces a new in-kernel-crypto blockcipher
called 'paes' which implements AES with protected keys.
The paes blockcipher can be used similar to the aes
blockcipher but uses secure key material to derive the
working protected key and so offers an encryption
implementation where never a clear key value is exposed
in memory.
The paes module is only available for the s390 platform
providing a minimal hardware support of CPACF enabled
with at least MSA level 3. Upon module initialization
these requirements are checked.
Includes additional contribution from Harald Freudenberger.
