Lawrence Spracklen has listed the 3 drivers that can be used to access the UltraSPARC T2 hardware crypto features:
  1. ncp - similar to the UltraSPARC T1; handles RSA, DSA, DH and ECC
    (more details can be found here)
  2. n2cp - handles bulk ciphers and hashes
    [more details can be found here (the supported modes of operation are also detailed)]
  3. n2rng - access to the HW random number generator
    (more details can be found here )
