[PATCH] crypto: powerpc/poly1305 - add depends on BROKEN for now

From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@kernel.org>
Date: 2025-05-14 05:19:22
Also in: linux-crypto, stable
Subsystem: linux for powerpc (32-bit and 64-bit), the rest · Maintainers: Madhavan Srinivasan, Michael Ellerman, Linus Torvalds

From: Eric Biggers <redacted>

As discussed in the thread containing
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-crypto/20250510053308.GB505731@sol/ (local), the
Power10-optimized Poly1305 code is currently not safe to call in softirq
context.  Disable it for now.  It can be re-enabled once it is fixed.

Fixes: ba8f8624fde2 ("crypto: poly1305-p10 - Glue code for optmized Poly1305 implementation for ppc64le")
