Subject: [PATCH net-next] octeontx2-pf: macsec: Use AES library instead of ecb(aes) skcipher
Date: Sat, 21 Mar 2026 15:52:08 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260321225208.64508-1-ebiggers@kernel.org> (raw)

cn10k_ecb_aes_encrypt() just encrypts a single block with AES.  That is
much more easily and efficiently done with the AES library than
crypto_skcipher.  Use the AES library instead.
