It seems to me that it's always crypto_gcm_reqctx(req), > no? Yes. This is for performance only. Because crypto_gcm_reqctx(req) is not so trivial (it needs access tfm), and used by every xxx_done function, so I think it is better to just call crypto_gcm_reqctx once and pass it down. Do you think so?
