Subject: [PATCH v2 08/17] crypto/cipher: Add setaad/gettag for AEAD modes
Date: Wed, 15 Jul 2026 03:33:25 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260715033311.1648424-9-jamin_lin@aspeedtech.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260715033311.1648424-1-jamin_lin@aspeedtech.com>
AEAD modes such as GCM authenticate optional associated data (AAD) and
produce an authentication tag, which the block-cipher encrypt/decrypt
interface cannot express. Add qcrypto_cipher_setaad() and
qcrypto_cipher_gettag() plus the matching backend driver hooks. The
generic front-end reports an error when the selected mode's driver does
not implement them, so calling them on a non-AEAD mode fails cleanly.
