mainlining shenanigans
Tests showed, that the zcrypt device driver produces memory leaks when a valid CCA or EP11 CPRB can't get delivered or has a failure during processing within the zcrypt device driver. This happens when a invalid domain or adapter number is used or the lower level software or hardware layers produce any kind of failure during processing of the request. Only CPRBs send to CCA or EP11 cards can produce this memory leak. The accelerator and the CPRBs processed by this type of crypto card is not affected. The two fields message and private within the ap_message struct are allocated with pulling the function code for the CPRB but only freed when processing of the CPRB succeeds. So for example an invalid domain or adapter field causes the processing to fail, leaving these two memory areas allocated forever.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
