This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled crypto: api - Add scaffolding to change completion function signature to the 5.15-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: crypto-api-add-scaffolding-to-change-completion-func.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.15 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit bdcac4c8875fd8fb5c10561a52e2e650f6c08149 Author: Herbert Xu <herbert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Jan 31 16:01:45 2023 +0800 crypto: api - Add scaffolding to change completion function signature [ Upstream commit c35e03eaece71101ff6cbf776b86403860ac8cc3 ] The crypto completion function currently takes a pointer to a struct crypto_async_request object. However, in reality the API does not allow the use of any part of the object apart from the data field. For example, ahash/shash will create a fake object on the stack to pass along a different data field. This leads to potential bugs where the user may try to dereference or otherwise use the crypto_async_request object. This patch adds some temporary scaffolding so that the completion function can take a void * instead. Once affected users have been converted this can be removed. The helper crypto_request_complete will remain even after the conversion is complete. It should be used instead of calling the completion function directly.
