Hi -- To configure cryptsetup -- We do see that
*--with-crypto_backend=openssl*  takes OpenSSL as a default Crypto engine.
We would like to use the -engine concept of OpenSSL where we can use
Hardware Accelerator (for example Intel's Quick Assist Technology) as
Crypto engine instead of Software based OpenSSL. Can you please suggest if
we can configure cryptsetup with openssl engine?
