Subject: [PATCH] crypto/hash: Have hashing functions take void * buffer argument
Date: Fri, 31 Oct 2025 10:09:30 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251031090930.27159-1-philmd@linaro.org> (raw)

Cryptographic hash function can operate on any area of memory,
regardless of the content their represent. Do not restrict to
array of char, use the void* type, which is also the type of
the underlying iovec::iov_base field.
