title: Using MD5 in kernel space of Linux
body: <p>I am trying to use the kernel space implementation of the md5 algorithm (md5.h and md5.c). It turns out that md5.h does not declare the functions found in md5.c, so I could not simply include md5.h into my c file. I also wanted to avoid altering md5.h to declare the functions, since that could have unintended consequences. Is there any other way to use md5 in kernel space?</p>
