Subject: [PATCH] crypto: api - Add softdep on cryptomgr
Date: Fri, 8 Nov 2019 18:26:30 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191108102630.rljqn5judazucah2@gondor.apana.org.au> (raw)
The crypto API requires cryptomgr to be present for probing to work
so we need a softdep to ensure that cryptomgr is added to the
initramfs.
This was usually not a problem because until very recently it was
not practical to build crypto API as module but with the recent
work to eliminate direct AES users this is now possible.
