MX6ul optee CAAM driver for encryption not giving consistent results

[asmaa]

Hello Everyone,

I am using imx6ul optee caam driver for crypto stuff in my project.
For testing , I am sending 8 bytes of data and 8 bytes of key as input, encryption algo as DES_ECB_NOPAD.

Function sequence I am calling is :

1. crypto_cipher_alloc_ctx -------> do_allocate(caam_cipher.c)
2. crypto_cipher_init --------> do_init (caam_cipher.c)
3. crypto_cipher_update -----> do_update (caam_cipher.c)
4. crypto_cipher_free_ctx ----->do_free (caam_cipher.c)

The problem I am facing is, I dont get consistent result, i.e sometimes I get encrypted ouput (1 out of 4 run) and sometimes instead of 0's (3 out of 4).

Is there anything I have to take care for Initialisation? Or I have to wait for any signal for encryption to complete.

I appreciate any help, any kind of pointers to search for.

Regards,
Asma

Hi Asma

one can try to rebuild all image from scratch, use nxp software described on

i.MX Software and Development Tools | NXP

Hi igorpadykov‌,

I am pretty sure my setup is done very well including optee with imx6ul, because I have wriiten trusted application and other stuffs which are working.

What I am trying to achieve is enabled CAAM in optee. I have done most of the configuration like:

setting CFG_IMX_CAAM =y

CFG_IMXCRYPT ?= y

Other than this do I need to set anything else to make CAAM cipher work correctly in Optee?

Are there any steps you can provide me to enable CAAM in optee?

Regards,

Asma
