> Subject: [PATCH v4 0/8] cryptodev: add RSA-OAEP and RSA-PSS padding support
>
> The asymmetric crypto capability structure currently reports only a
> generic modulus length and primary hash algorithm for RSA, with no
> way for a PMD to advertise which padding schemes (NONE, PKCS#1 v1.5,
> OAEP, PSS) or MGF1 hash algorithms it supports. Applications have no
> standard way to discover this, and the OpenSSL PMD itself only
> implements NONE and PKCS#1 v1.5 padding.
>
> This series first extends the capability API with a dedicated
> rte_crypto_rsa_capa (modulus length, pad_types, mgf1_hash_algos, and
> an explicit-PSS-salt flag), then updates the capability reporting in
> the octeontx, cnxk, and openssl PMDs to use it.
>
> On top of that, it adds actual RSA-OAEP and RSA-PSS support to the
> OpenSSL PMD:
> - RSA-OAEP encrypt/decrypt, with configurable OAEP hash, MGF1 hash,
> and an optional label, defaulting MGF1 to the OAEP hash when
> unset.
> - RSA-PSS sign/verify, with configurable hash, MGF1 hash, and salt
> length (rte_crypto_rsa_padding::pss_saltlen), using a dedicated
> EVP_PKEY_verify()-based verification path since PSS does not
> support verify-recover. The PSS salt itself is always generated
> internally by the PMD; an application-supplied salt
> (rte_crypto_rsa_op_param::pss_salt, gated by the new
> pss_explicit_salt capability bit) is introduced by this series
> for future PMD support but is not yet implemented here, so it is
> rejected with RTE_CRYPTO_OP_STATUS_INVALID_ARGS.
>
> Test coverage for both OAEP (encrypt/decrypt, default and custom
> MGF1, with and without a label) and PSS (digest-length, maximum, and
> zero-length salt) is added to the cryptodev asymmetric test suite.
>
> v2:
> - Dropped the virtio and qat capability-advertisement patches from
> this series; they will be sent separately.
> - Documented the new rsa_capa/pss_salt fields in release_26_11.rst
> (this series' target release) instead of the already-released
> 26.07 notes.
>
> v3:
> - Renamed rsa_oaep_supported()/rsa_pss_supported() test helpers to
> is_rsa_oaep_supported()/is_rsa_pss_supported() and switched them
> to bool.
> - Minor OpenSSL PMD cleanups: hoisted the mgf1 variable declaration
> and used memcpy() instead of rte_memcpy() for the OAEP label.
> - Reworded a few patch subjects for consistency (app/test ->
> test/crypto; shortened the OAEP/PSS OpenSSL commit titles).
>
> v4:
> - Fixed a build error in the test suite by making rsa_pss_digest_sha256
> a const struct.

Taken Ack from Radu on v2.
Applied to dpdk-next-crypto
@techboard at dpdk.org: This patchset has a ABI break which was highlighted in deprecation notice in last release. Since this is an ABI break Cycle, I think we can merge this set if no objections.
