Ok, thanks. I'll try and run EXTRA TESTS as soon as I get the current 
test all fixed.

For the time being, I'm having a problem that I'm a bit lost with:

AEAD decryption fails at the moment for out-of-line tests, and the 
reason is that the ICV (used to do the SW compare with the expected one) 
is generated after the decrypted data.
It works perfectly when src == dst, because the src has space for it, 
but when the dst is different, the dst length is smaller so the ICV is 
generated outside the sg list, and the comparison fails because the 
comparison is done with the last bytes of the last segment of dst sg 
list (which corresponds to the end of decrypted data in that case).

What I'm having hard time with it that it seems that when the sg list 
has several elements, it uses an out of line area for generating the ICV 
but not when the sg list has only one element. I'm really wondering why.

Thanks
Christophe
