Hi Herbert,
Just noticed that the struct sock_iocb has just been removed on net-next
(see [1]). What we can do is to call aio_complete() directly from
algif_skcipher, assuming that it is ok to call asynchronous read or
write with the struct msghdr allocated on the stack.
Please let me know what you think.
Thanks,
Tadeusz
