Public bug reported: The module ghash-clmulni-intel always fails to load with "Invalid argument":
$ sudo modprobe ghash-clmulni-intel modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'ghash_clmulni_intel': Invalid argument That was caused by the commit 8996eafdc ("crypto: ahash - ensure statesize is non-zero"), that added a requirement that all ahash algorithms now need to implement import() and export() and define a non zero statesize. The fix is composed by two commits: 3a020a7 crypto: ghash-clmulni - Fix load failure 1a07834 crypto: cryptd - Assign statesize properly Xenial and Trusty are affected and Yakkety already included the solution above. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: The module ghash-clmulni-intel always fails to load with "Invalid argument": $ sudo modprobe ghash-clmulni-intel modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'ghash_clmulni_intel': Invalid argument That was caused by the commit 8996eafdc ("crypto: ahash - ensure statesize is non-zero"), that added a requirement that all ahash algorithms now need to implement import() and export() and define a non zero statesize.
