aes_s390.dc0a3b Allocating AES fallback algorithm <algorithm name> failed

Explanation

The advanced encryption standard (AES) algorithm includes three modes with 128-bit, 192-bit, and 256-bit keys. Your hardware system only provides hardware acceleration for the 128-bit mode. The aes_s390 module failed to allocate a software fallback for the AES modes that are not supported by the hardware. A possible reason for this problem is that the aes_generic module that provides the fallback algorithms is not available.

User response

Use the 128-bit mode only or ensure that the aes_generic module is available and loaded and reload the aes_s390 module.
