As was established in the thread https://lore.kernel.org/linux-crypto/20220223080400.139367-1-gilad@benyossef.com/T/#u, many crypto API users doing in-place en/decryption don't use the same scatterlist pointers for the source and destination, but rather use separate scatterlists that point to the same memory. This case isn't tested by the self-tests, resulting in bugs. This is the natural usage of the crypto API in some cases, so requiring API users to avoid this usage is not reasonable. Therefore, update the self-tests to start testing this case. Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.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.
