Hello Mimi, > Somehow I missed it. A more generic patch is currently queued, which > should resolve this problem as well. Please try commit fdc33c29b022 > ("evm: Don't deadlock if a crypto algorithm is unavailable") in the > next-integrity-queued branch. thank you for helping me out. I tried that patch but it does no fix the issue completely. It still ends up in a deadlock. As you can see from the backtrace attached below the call to public_key_verify_signature() still causes a deadlock, since there is the following call in it: tfm = crypto_alloc_akcipher(alg_name, 0, 0); Passing CRYPTO_NOLOAD here does fix the deadlock for me, but I fear that won't be an option and the interface needs to be extended to pass flags?
