Hi Gang,

I've got a Broadcom 5823 in an AlphaServer 800 that I'd like to get
working via /dev/crypto again.

I had it working on an OpenBSD 3.4 install, but I've lost my notes and
the source tree that I hacked to get it working. I do remember fudging
around with /dev/MAKEDEV and tracking back to allocate a major number
for the mknod, but then it's all hazy from there.

I'd appreciate it if someone could help jog my memory or point me to
some documentation.

cheers,

M.
