crypto regression?

[Cyrille Pitchen]

Hi Herbert,

Let me report a potential regression I've noticed this morning when testing
linux-next.

I've set CONFIG_CRYPTO_MANAGER_DISABLE_TESTS=n when compiling both kernel
images.


On 4.9.0-rc2-next-20161028, /proc/crypto displays:
driver       : atmel-xts-aes
module       : kernel
priority     : 300
refcnt       : 1
selftest     : passed
internal     : no
type         : ablkcipher
async        : yes
blocksize    : 16
min keysize  : 32
max keysize  : 64
ivsize       : 16
geniv        : <default>

and no output from the test manager in the boot log.


Whereas on 4.9.0-rc8-next-20161208, we get:
driver       : atmel-xts-aes
module       : kernel
priority     : 300
refcnt       : 1
selftest     : unknown
internal     : no
type         : ablkcipher
async        : yes
blocksize    : 16
min keysize  : 32
max keysize  : 64
ivsize       : 16
geniv        : <default>


Also I see the following traces during the boot:

000001e0: f3 6f fd a9 fc ea 70 b9 c6 e6 93 e1

The output is a little bit long for test 1, isn't it?
When I look at aes_xts_enc_tv_template[] from crypto/testmgr.h
I see .rlen = 32 .


I didn't bisect to find out exactly since when the regression is there. I
wanted to warn you quickly since we are close to the merge window.
Also if you have already been notified about this issue, please, sorry for
the noise!

Best regards,
