Subject: RE: [PATCH 3/3] crc32c: Implement a self-test for CRC32c

Hi Darrick,

The same code in crc32.c was helpful to measure performance and help code tuning as well as indicate correctness. Otherwise the code in crypto may be enough to test all the corner cases. If this survives the review I wonder if there is a way to combine crc32 and crc32c together somehow. I like yours because you can load/unload and not need the memory permanently.

Bob
