I recently added a crypto hardware framework in OpenBSD, and fix the IPsec
stack to take advantage of it (convert from linear processing to
callback-based). We have preliminary support for the hifn 7751 chip (which
is in fact used in a couple of different products), but it's not fully
debugged yet. Probably a couple of weeks away.

We're trying to get docs for more crypto cards (and start supporting big-num
cards too) -- Intel and 3Com are not being very helpful in providing specs for
their new cards though...
