Subject: [PATCH 2/7] crypto: sha256-mb - Enable multibuffer support
Date: Thu, 23 Jun 2016 18:40:43 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1466732448-27856-3-git-send-email-megha.dey@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1466732448-27856-1-git-send-email-megha.dey@intel.com>

Add the config CRYPTO_SHA256_MB which will enable the computation using the
SHA256 multi-buffer algorithm.
