It seems I have misunderstood you in the last discussion. in the last discussion [1] I tried to explain why I did not consider multiple IOVs. In the reply to my answer [2] I seem to have understood that the current implementation is fine. So, shall I now implement the multiple IOVs approach outlined in [1]? If yes, how many IOVs shall I consider? > > Cheers, [1] http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-crypto/msg12861.html [2] http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-crypto/msg12935.html -- Ciao Stephan -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-api" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
