Hi Gert and others,
Would it be possible to fix the geode-aes module?
[Wed Oct 2 18:57:38 2019] Error allocating fallback algo cbc(aes)
[Wed Oct 2 18:57:38 2019] alg: skcipher: Failed to load transform for
cbc-aes-geode: -2
[Wed Oct 2 18:57:38 2019] Geode LX AES 0000:00:01.2: GEODE AES engine
enabled.

10.1
I know it it and old CPU, but I got more then 50 of them still in use
and I can not use a newer kernel anymore, since the cpu load just goes
to 100% without aes hw support.
Kind regards,
Jelle de Jong

Hi,
I try to use geode-aes/CRYPTO_DEV_GEODE, but it gives errors in dmesg
and openssl (see below), and doesn't function.
I found that the change "crypto: cbc - Convert to skcipher" gives the
problem:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/crypto/cbc.c?id=79c65d179a40e145287e59b33dc782a7c4bf0986
When I use cbc from before this change, it works fine.
When I use cbc from right after, it doesn't.
(cbc from right after, and from Linux 4.20-rc5, makes no difference in
dmesg, /proc/crypto, openssl).
System is a PC Engines ALIX 2C.2 with Geode LX800, Linux 4.20-rc5.
As it has been broken for a while, I assume there are not many users,
but that might increase at the next Debian stable release.
Thank you,
Gert
