Re: [PATCH 2/3] crypto: acomp - Add setparam interface

Hi Sergey,

It is good to know that you are planning to move zram to the
async crypto API. As you correctly observed, the Intel IAA driver is
based on crypto acomp, which is Ok because we are currently working on
upstreaming “zswap compression batching” [1] as the first kernel user of
IAA. Our plan is to integrate IAA batching with zram, for which the
embedded crypto acomp dependencies in iaa_crypto are the first challenge
to overcome, while preserving the crypto interface for zswap. 

I would like to get your thoughts on whether the crypto_acomp batching
interface in patch 10 [2] of the above series would be acceptable for
zram IAA integration. If not, I was planning to create a layer in the
iaa_crypto driver that would allow interfacing with zcomp without
crypto. I figured it would be good to get some early feedback from you
before I work on a potential zcomp interface for iaa_crypto (which is
non-trivial), in light of your plans to move zram to use async crypto.

I will add you to [1].

Thanks,
