OK I see. Yes that seems best considering only sha1, but I see that sha256 uses uint8_t pretty consistently. I see that hash_block() uses uint8_t also. But crc.h uses unsigned char. Can you try option 1 and see if it works? I feel it is better to use uint8_t and you would have this same problems with sha256. But if you want to stick with this patch, it is a a small local change that does not affect the API, so: Reviewed-by: Simon Glass <s...@chromium.org> > > > Thanks, Simon.
