- complete(data, err); + areq->base.complete = complete; + areq->base.data = data; + + complete(&areq->base, err);This looks completely bogus. While restoring areq isn't wrong per se, calling complete with &areq->base makes no sense. The original completion data is in the variable "data".Is there some documentation for this so I can understand why this is wrong, please? I really don't quite get it, sorry. Actually, is there some documentation for writing crypto API drivers at all please ?Well it's wrong because the completion function (req->base.complete) is meant to take data (req->base.data) as its first argument. So giving it a pointer to req->base makes no sense.The crypto_completion_t typdef is defined as: typedef void (*crypto_completion_t)(struct crypto_async_request *req, int err); so I believe &areq->base is the proper first argument (which is actually just the req parameter on the ahash_op_unaligned_done function).
You are right. This unaligned code obviously has never worked. I will apply Marek's patch to fix this up.
Additionally, you should probably also fix up ahash_def_finup_done2 and ahash_def_finup_done1.
Yep I'll fix them up too. Thanks! -- Email: Herbert Xu [off-list ref] Home Page: http://gondor.apana.org.au/~herbert/ PGP Key: http://gondor.apana.org.au/~herbert/pubkey.txt
