Why add the "sleeping during request processing" part? Isn't that controlled on a per-request basis by CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_MAY_SLEEP which is a separate thing? > * They should also follow the constraints below.

"If the scatterlists contains" => "If either scatterlist contains" Otherwise it is unclear whether this is talking about the length of each scatterlist individually, or the sum of their lengths. - Eric -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
