Hi!

-static void crypt_alloc_req_aead(struct crypt_config *cc,
+static int crypt_alloc_req_aead(struct crypt_config *cc,
                               struct convert_context *ctx)
 {
-     if (!ctx->r.req_aead)
-             ctx->r.req_aead = mempool_alloc(&cc->req_pool, GFP_NOIO);
+     if (!ctx->r.req) {
+             ctx->r.req = mempool_alloc(&cc->req_pool, in_interrupt() ? GFP_ATOMIC : GFP_NOIO);
+             if (!ctx->r.req)
+                     return -ENOMEM;
+     }
But this one can't be good. We are now allocating different field in
the structure!
Good catch! Sorry for the copy-paste. It is actually not a big deal,
because this is not a structure, but a union:
as long as the mempool was initialized with the correct size, it
should be no different.
Ah. I actually thought about unions and went back to definition to see
if it is one, but was somehow blind for the moment.

Best regards,
