This patch fixes an issue with hash and HMAC operations that perform "large" intermediate updates (i.e. combined size > 2 hash blocks) by actually making use of the hardware's hash continue capabilities. The original implementation would cache these updates in a buffer that was 2 hash blocks in size and fail if all update calls combined would overflow that buffer. Which caused the cryptomgr extra tests to fail. Signed-off-by: Pascal van Leeuwen <pvanleeuwen@verimatrix.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
