Description Eduard Benes 2011-05-04 16:04:21 UTC 
Section "3.7. OpenSSL PadLock Engine" [1] should be updated. 

Padlock does not work on 64bit systems. This should be left out or explicitly commented that it is supported only on 32bit systems.

Following sentence at the end of article is not accurate, and should be removed:
<snip>
PadLock is a third-party initiative available in the Linux kernel.
</snip>
