x86 AES-NI routines can deal with unaligned data. Crypto context (key, iv etc.) have to be aligned but we take care of that separately by copying it onto the stack. We were feeding unaligned data into crypto routines up until commit83c83e6588("crypto: aesni - refactor scatterlist processing") switched to use the full skcipher API which uses cra_alignmask to decide data alignment. This fixes 21% performance regression in kTLS. Tested by booting with CONFIG_CRYPTO_MANAGER_EXTRA_TESTS=y (and running thru various kTLS packets).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
