[v2 PATCH 0/2] crypto: Use nth_page instead of doing it by hand

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



v2 removes the krb5 patch and changes the code so that nth_page is
only called if HIGHMEM is enabled.  Also switch to from page_address
to lowmem_page_address.

This patch series is based on top of:

Curiously, the Crypto API scatterwalk incremented pages by hand
rather than using nth_page.  Possibly because scatterwalk predates
nth_page (the following commit is from the history tree):

            [CRYPTO]: in/out scatterlist support for ciphers.

Fix this by using nth_page.

  crypto: scatterwalk - Use nth_page instead of doing it by hand
  crypto: hash - Use nth_page instead of doing it by hand
