See for example ext4_chksum() in fs/ext4/ext4.h: static inline u32 ext4_chksum(struct ext4_sb_info *sbi, u32 crc, const void *address, unsigned int length) { struct { struct shash_desc shash; char ctx[4]; } desc; BUG_ON(crypto_shash_descsize(sbi->s_chksum_driver)!=sizeof(desc.ctx)); desc.shash.tfm = sbi->s_chksum_driver; desc.shash.flags = 0; *(u32 *)desc.ctx = crc; BUG_ON(crypto_shash_update(&desc.shash, address, length)); return *(u32 *)desc.ctx; } I think you need to fix the stm32 crc32 driver to not store anything extra in the shash_desc context, and only use hardware during ->update(). - Eric
