So your driver will just send bad result in that case.

You need to export and store the intermediate result in a request context.

Handling your own worflow is not enough.

You need to support two client doing multiple update in parallel.
It seems that your driver is bugged in that case.

Furthermore, i am pretty sure that export and import are mandatory, and without them self-test should fail.
Do you have self test enabled and tryed to load the tcrypt module ?
