[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 1/2] crypto/qat: fix null auth algo issue

If auth algorithm is RTE_CRYPTO_AUTH_NULL and digest_length is 0 in the xform and digest pointer is set in the op, then the PMD may overwrite memory at the digest pointer. With this patch the memory is not overwritten. Fixes: db0e952a5c01 ("crypto/qat: add NULL capability") Signed-off-by: Fiona T
