Subject: [PATCH 0/2] padata fixes
Date: Fri, 9 Mar 2012 07:18:28 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120309061828.GI15404@secunet.com> (raw)

This patchset fixes two races that I found when I tested padata
in combination with pcrypt ablkcipher algorithms (still unpublished)
and dm-crypt. The mainline codebase seems not to trigger them, however
we need to fix these races before I can push the pcrypt ablkcipher
extensions.

The patchset is based on the crypto-2.6 tree and is also available via git:

The following changes since commit f8f54e190ddb4ed697036b60f5e2ae6dd45b801c:

        crypto: mv_cesa - fix final callback not ignoring input data

are available in the git repository at:

      padata: Fix race in the serialization path
      padata: Fix race on sequence number wrap
