Subject: [PATCH 18/38] crypto: drbg - Simplify algorithm registration
Date: Sun, 19 Apr 2026 23:34:02 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260420063422.324906-19-ebiggers@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260420063422.324906-1-ebiggers@kernel.org>
Now that "drbg_pr_hmac_sha512" and "drbg_nopr_hmac_sha512" are the only
crypto_rng algorithms left in crypto/drbg.c, simplify the algorithm
registration logic to register these more directly without relying on
the drbg_cores[] array (which will be removed).
