[ 002/167] [PATCH] crypto: sha512 - Fix byte counter overflow in SHA-512

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Wed May 09 2012 - 02:10:08 EST


3.2-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Kent Yoder <key@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 25c3d30c918207556ae1d6e663150ebdf902186b upstream.

The current code only increments the upper 64 bits of the SHA-512 byte
counter when the number of bytes hashed happens to hit 2^64 exactly.

This patch increments the upper 64 bits whenever the lower 64 bits
overflows.
