To verify the issue.

When a user encounter crash/reboot issue, check the following error in call track (dmesg) and verify if the ssl_encrypted_verify function caused the reboot.

  • ssl_encrypted_verify+0x17/0x50 [dsa_filter]

                                     or

  • ssl_encrypted_verify+0x33/0x60 [dsa_filter]
