[PATCH net-next 1/6] netdevsim: psp: reset spi on key rotation and check for exhaustion on alloc

From: Daniel Zahka

Date: Fri May 08 2026 - 10:54:41 EST


The PSP spec states that the lower 31b of the SPI need to be
non-zero. Though not in the spec, I think it is reasonable to reset
the lower 31b of the spi space after a key rotation, and to also
decline to generate session keys when the lower 31b saturate.
