Hi All,
I am having trouble understanding the update to the crypto_dispatch function in crypto.c for ocf-linux-20080917 from ocf-linux-2071215:
2007 code:
if (!cap->cc_qblocked) {
result = crypto_invoke(cap, crp, 0);
if (result != ERESTART)
return (result);
2008 code:
result = crypto_invoke(cap, crp, 0);
CRYPTO_Q_LOCK();
if (result != ERESTART)
crypto_drivers[hid].cc_qblocked = 0;
In the 2008 code an error is not returned to cryptodev.c if crypto_invoke returns an error code.
Should we now always call crypto_done() if there is a fail in the driver invoke function?
I ask because I've tried this but am getting a soft lockup when using crypto-tools and testing some fail case scenarios if I set the crp->etype before calling crypto-done.
Best Regards,
Brendan

Yeah, I can't explain it either and I made that change. It was part of a
SMP/locking problem and it looks like I lost the result code. Here is a
quick patch (untested :-) that I think will return the functionality that
was lost. Let me know how it goes.
Out of interest, what is the condition error that the driver you are using
is reporting ? EINVAL perhaps ?
Thanks for tracking this down,
Cheers,

Thanks David,
So is that patch going to be in the next release? :-) Just it definitely changes how error cases need to be handled in the drivers...
Yep, it's EINVAL or EFAULT. The fault code seems to only matter if it's ERESTART though??

Brendan

If it fixes the problem you are seeing I will commit it and it will be in
the next release :-) I should do one really, it has the 2.6.29 updates
etc in there now and quite a few more little updates.
> Yep, it's EINVAL or EFAULT. The fault code seems to only matter if it's

Basically I just wanted to know what a driver was doing that would return
an error other than full. EINVAL sprang to mind if the kery sizes or
something similar didn't match.
I was concerned if it was something that would normally happen, as I
haven't been seeing it myself.
Thanks again,
Cheers,
Davidm

Hi David,
Thanks, that patch seems to be working as expected for some of my fail cases. However, the reason I have taken so long to get back to you (sorry!) is that I have encountered another problem, but I think it's in my own code. Anyway, I can't run a full set of tests on the change until it is fixed :/
Regards,
Brendan

I think I'll commit it, all the other drivers are broken for failure cases
at the moment so better to improve things on that front :-)
