[LTP] [PATCH v2 0/6] ltp: AF_ALG test helpers and a few regression tests

[Petr Vorel]

Hi Eric,

> This series adds helper functions for testing AF_ALG (the userspace
> interface to algorithms in the Linux kernel's crypto API) to the
> Linux Test Project.  It then adds a few sample regression tests.

> I've had these patches sitting around for a while with the goal of also
> writing some "real" tests that test for more than these specific bugs,
> but haven't gotten around to it yet.  And I now consider further
> improving the in-kernel crypto self-tests to be a higher priority.  But
> I figured I'd send this out as-is in case people are interested in
> having this merged, e.g. maybe other people want to add AF_ALG tests to
> LTP too and the 'tst_af_alg' lib would be a good starting point.

> Changed since v1:

>     - Define 'AF_ALG' in include/lapi/socket.h if undefined.
>       Also move 'SOL_ALG' definition to there.
The only minor issue is with missing SOL_ALG on older distros.

Going to push it with this fix including lapi/socket.h on lib/tst_af_alg.c and
testcases/kernel/crypto/af_alg01.c.


Kind regards,
Petr
