This is not a problem in general, except for Counter mode that is a stream cipher and can have an input of any size. Test Manager for ctr(aes) fails on 4th test vector which has a length of 499 while all previous vectors which have a 16 bytes multiple length succeed. As suggested by Freescale, round up the input data length to the nearest 16 bytes.

Only the input length is modified. Not the output length. The ERRATA says: The input data length (in the descriptor) can be rounded up to the nearest 16B. Set the data-in length (in the descriptor) to include X bytes of data beyond the payload. Set the data-out length to only output the relevant payload (don't need to output the padding). SEC reads from memory are not destructive, so the extra bytes included in the AES-CTR operation can be whatever bytes are contiguously trailing the payload.
