The stridesize is too small. It must be at least the size of one state
instance storage space which is the size of your data (0x20) and the
size of the header (0xc), so total 0x2c. However, I recommend a bigger
value, maybe 0x40 or 0x80.
There should be an error message when the stridesize is too small.
