Subject: [PATCH v1 0/4] ipv6: sr: make SR HMAC __init continue on missing algos
Date: Mon, 10 Mar 2025 17:58:53 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250310165857.3584612-1-nstange@suse.de> (raw)
Hi all,
this series prepares for prohibiting any SHA1 usage when booting in FIPS
mode -- SHA1 will be sunset by NIST by the end of 2030 ([1]) and then at
latest, attempts to instantiate it will have to be made to fail with
-ENOENT (in FIPS mode only). Note that distros might want to make this
move downstream today already.
The problem is that the SR HMAC __init, and thus the IPv6 subsys as a whole,
fails to come up upon encountering such an error.
This series makes it to continue upon ENOENTs from the hmac instantiations.
Thanks!
Nicolai
