Why don't you reuse the virtio_crypto_algs_register/unregister functions?
The current code is too repetitive. Maybe we don't need create the new file virtio_crypto_akcipher_algo.c
because we had virtio_crypto_algs.c which includes all algorithms.


Yes, this looks similar to virtio_crypto_algs_register/unregister.

Let's look at the difference:
struct virtio_crypto_akcipher_algo {
        uint32_t algonum;
        uint32_t service;
        unsigned int active_devs;
        struct akcipher_alg algo;
};

struct virtio_crypto_algo {
        uint32_t algonum;
uint32_t service;
        unsigned int active_devs;
        struct skcipher_alg algo; /* akcipher_alg VS skcipher_alg */
};

If reusing virtio_crypto_algs_register/unregister, we need to modify the data structure like this:
struct virtio_crypto_akcipher_algo {
        uint32_t algonum;
uint32_t service; /* use service to distinguish akcipher/skcipher */
        unsigned int active_devs;
	union {
		struct skcipher_alg skcipher;
	        struct akcipher_alg akcipher;
	} alg;
};

int virtio_crypto_akcipher_algs_register(struct virtio_crypto *vcrypto)
{
	...
        for (i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE(virtio_crypto_akcipher_algs); i++) {
                uint32_t service = virtio_crypto_akcipher_algs[i].service;
		...
/* test service type then call crypto_register_akcipher/crypto_register_skcipher */
                if (service == VIRTIO_CRYPTO_SERVICE_AKCIPHER)
			crypto_register_akcipher(&virtio_crypto_akcipher_algs[i].algo.akcipher);
		else
			crypto_register_skcipher(&virtio_crypto_skcipher_algs[i].algo.skcipher);
		...
        }
	...
}

Also test service type and call crypto_unregister_skcipher/crypto_unregister_akcipher.

This gets unclear from current v2 version.

On the other hand, the kernel side prefers to separate skcipher and akcipher(separated header files and implementations).
