How about: /* * When an algorithm uses another algorithm (e.g., if it's an instance of a * template), these are the flags that always get set on the "outer" algorithm * if any "inner" algorithm has them set. In some cases other flags are * inherited too; these are just the flags that are *always* inherited. */ #define CRYPTO_ALG_INHERITED_FLAGS (CRYPTO_ALG_ASYNC | CRYPTO_ALG_ALLOCATES_MEMORY) Also I wonder about the case where the inner algorithm is a fallback rather than part of a template instance. This patch only handles templates, not fallbacks. Is that intentional? Isn't that technically a bug? > + > +/* > * Transform masks and values (for crt_flags). > */ > #define CRYPTO_TFM_NEED_KEY 0x00000001 > Index: linux-2.6/crypto/authenc.c > =================================================================== > --- linux-2.6.orig/crypto/authenc.c 2020-06-26 17:24:03.566417000 +0200 > +++ linux-2.6/crypto/authenc.c 2020-06-26 17:24:03.566417000 +0200 > @@ -388,7 +388,8 @@ static int crypto_authenc_create(struct > if ((algt->type ^ CRYPTO_ALG_TYPE_AEAD) & algt->mask) > return -EINVAL; > > - mask = crypto_requires_sync(algt->type, algt->mask); > + mask = crypto_requires_sync(algt->type, algt->mask) | > + crypto_requires_nomem(algt->type, algt->mask); As I suggested earlier, shouldn't there be a function that returns the mask for all inherited flags, rather than handling each flag individually? > > inst = kzalloc(sizeof(*inst) + sizeof(*ctx), GFP_KERNEL); > if (!inst) > @@ -424,7 +425,7 @@ static int crypto_authenc_create(struct > goto err_free_inst; > > inst->alg.base.cra_flags = (auth_base->cra_flags | > - enc->base.cra_flags) & CRYPTO_ALG_ASYNC; > + enc->base.cra_flags) & CRYPTO_ALG_INHERITED_FLAGS; Strange indentation here.
