The source code for the two failing AF_ALG tests is here:
https://github.com/linux-test-project/ltp/blob/master/testcases/kernel/crypt... https://github.com/linux-test-project/ltp/blob/master/testcases/kernel/crypt...
They use read() and write(), not send() and recv().
af_alg02 uses read() to read from a "salsa20" request socket without writing anything to it. It is expected that this returns 0, i.e. that behaves like encrypting an empty message.
Since we are on this subject, LTP af_alg02 test case fails on stable 4.9 and stable 4.4 This is not a regression because the test case has been failing from the beginning.
Is this test case expected to fail on stable 4.9 and 4.4 ? or any chance to fix this on these older branches ?
Test output: af_alg02.c:52: BROK: Timed out while reading from request socket.
