Re: [PATCH v2 3/5] crypto: AF_ALG -- add setpubkey setsockopt call

Hi Stephan,

For supporting asymmetric ciphers, user space must be able to set the
public key. The patch adds a new setsockopt call for setting the public
key.

why is this kind of hackery needed? Why not just introduce alg_setpubkey to keep this a lot cleaner.

Same here. Why not give ALG_SET_PUBKEY a separate case statement. Especially since you have to check type->setkey vs type->setpubkey.
