OOPS: 2.6.23.11 in PadLock-AES when used in LRW-Mode

2007-12-23 Thread Alexander Eichhorn
Hi, while playing around with AES encrypted block devices (in LRW mode) on top of Software Raid-1/5 volumes I experienced a set of Kernel OOPSes which seem to be related to the current PadLock-AES driver. PadLock-AES in LRW mode also failed when layered directly above a raw disk partition

re digging into the sourcecode we try this way to get an overall description. Our second question: Are there any plans for contructing a general copy-avoidance infrastructure (smth. like UVM in NetBSD does) and new IPC-mechanisms on top of it yet?? Thanks in advance. Alexander Eichhorn -- Ale

opying needs all three basic system ressources (CPU, memory and bandwidth of local communication- facilities - busses) at the same time (synchronous)! Many researchers recognized this problem and developed techniques to overcome the dusted os-concepts (UNet, UVM,..). Unfortunately they need special
