[PATCH v6 08/18] crypto: skcipher: Remove VLA usage for SKCIPHER_REQUEST_ON_STACK

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In the quest to remove all stack VLA usage from the kernel[1], this
caps the skcipher request size similar to other limits and adds a sanity
check at registration. Looking at instrumented tcrypt output, the largest
is for lrw:

	crypt: testing lrw(aes)
	crypto_skcipher_set_reqsize: 8
	crypto_skcipher_set_reqsize: 88
	crypto_skcipher_set_reqsize: 472
