I don't understand why you're saying there are so many cases to handle, though. The only error cases I'd expect to actually be encountered during the tests are invalid input lengths and invalid key lengths, where you should return -EINVAL. There may be other errors your driver could theoretically produce, but I wouldn't expect them to be encountered during the tests unless there are testmgr, driver, or hardware bugs. But remember you must always return a -errno code, not a driver-specific code. - Eric
