Subject: [RFC] Unaligned CTR mode tests in crypto/testmgr.h
Date: Tue, 29 Oct 2013 19:11:23 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <52704EAB.5000308@ti.com> (raw)

Hi,

Some tests such as test 5 in AES CTR mode in crypto/testmgr.h have a unaligned
input buffer size such as 499 which is not aligned to any > 0 power of 2.

Due to this, omap-aes driver, and I think atmel-aes too error out when
encryption is requested for these buffers.

pr_err("request size is not exact amount of AES blocks\n") or a similar message.

Is this failure considered a bug? How do we fix it?

How were the result output vectors generated, did you use 0 padding? Do we 0 pad
the inputs to align in these cases to get correct results?

thanks,

-Joel
