Date: Wed, 10 Dec 2008 23:35:24 +1100 From: Herbert Xu <herbert@...dor.apana.org.au> To: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@...ux-foundation.org> Cc: "David S. Miller" <davem@...emloft.net>, Linux Kernel Mailing List <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org>, Linux Crypto Mailing List <linux-crypto@...r.kernel.org> Subject: Re: Crypto Update for 2.6.28 Hi Linus: At this late stage there is just one fix for a regression from 2.6.27. We used to allow algorithms to be built-in with the new testing framework built as a module. This meant that the built-in algorithms may not get tested properly if modules can't be loaded when the built-in algorithms are registered. It also seems to trigger a modprobe loop on one distro. This configuration is now forbidden.
