Important things about the IBM4758

$/!\$ It has reached it´s official END OF LIFE!
Temperature, Humidity and barometric pressure must always be in the specified range
From the faq: http://www-03.ibm.com/security/cryptocards/pcicryptofaqs.shtml
- Can the PKCS #11 support be used with the IBM 4758 models 1 or 13?
  - No, only with the new models 2 and 23.
We heard that it supports up to 2048 Bit keys in hardware, and larger keys would have to be done in software. But doing it in software might cause too much heat, so we have to be carefull, and start monitoring the temperature from the beginning.

"Other than Ross Anderson and his students extracting a 3DES key from an IBM4758, has 3DES been in fact broken?"

It´s a 4758-002:

lspci:
0000:03:0a.0 Co-processor: IBM PCI 4758 Cryptographic Accelerator (rev 04)
0000:03:0a.0 0b40: 1014:009f (rev 04)

We have ported the Linux 2.4 driver to Linux 2.6, and also to the x86_64 platform.
