User space interface to the Linux Kernel Crypto API

libkcapi allows user-space to access the Linux kernel crypto API. This library uses the netlink interface and exports easy to use APIs so that a developer does not need to consider the low-level netlink interface handling. The library does not implement any cipher algorithms. All consumer requests are sent to the kernel for processing. Results from the kernel crypto API are returned to the consumer via the library API. The kernel interface and therefore this library can be used by unprivileged processes.

Versions, suites, and repositories

Each row is recorded package-index metadata for one version, architecture, suite, and repository. Names, URLs, and sizes are source-reported; a link is a potentially mutable retrieval location, not an OpenFactory redistribution claim or proof that OpenFactory retained the artifact bytes.

Checksums and observation dates

For an APT source, signature verification authenticates the repository metadata chain and the Packages index containing this source-reported artifact digest. It does not certify package safety.

1.5.0-6.fc43 / i686Observed Sep 1, 2026 to Sep 1, 2026

Verification status: Metadata observed; artifact bytes were not independently fetched or hashed by this catalog import. The digest below is source-reported.

Source-reported sha256: 305c453d6fd5eb0df08ac06c59bf8cbba215670d66a34afa8f4531555a76c346

After downloading that exact artifact, compare its bytes with the source-reported expected digest:

printf '%s  %s\n' '305c453d6fd5eb0df08ac06c59bf8cbba215670d66a34afa8f4531555a76c346' 'libkcapi-1.5.0-6.fc43.i686.rpm' | sha256sum --check --strict -

A match establishes equality with the repository metadata value. It does not establish safety or catalog-side artifact retrieval.

Catalog record completeness

The completeness score measures metadata coverage, not software quality, security, compatibility, or suitability.
