Subject: [PATCH] crypto: tegra: Fix IV usage for AES ECB
Date: Wed, 26 Mar 2025 20:21:10 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250326145111.57991-1-akhilrajeev@nvidia.com> (raw)

Modifying the crypto_request turns out to be not the right way to handle
the stale value issue with the IV. Though the IV is not used for AES ECB,
it eventually get used in algorithms like LRW in the next step after
AES ECB encryption/decryption. Setting req->iv to NULL breaks the
implementation of such algorithms. Hence modify only the local reqctx
to check for IV.

Fixes: bde558220866 ("crypto: tegra - Set IV to NULL explicitly for AES ECB")
