I am sorry but this code is not in driver but in crypto API code. It seems that I didnt explain well the problem. The crypto API run a number of crypto operations against every driver that register crypto algos. For each buffer given to the tested driver, crypto API setup a poison buffer contigous to this buffer. The goal is to detect if driver do bad thing outside of buffer it got. So the tested driver dont know existence of this poison buffer and so cannot not handle it. My problem is that a dma_sync on the data buffer corrupt the poison buffer as collateral dommage. Probably because the sync operate on a larger region than the requested dma_sync length. So I try to flush poison data in the cryptoAPI. Any hint on how to do it properly is welcome.
