The base address of K[] array gets changed in the opencl kernel. In the
DES_bs_init() function the addresses stored in of *KSp[] array are derived
from the address of key bits array K[]. Now when the key bits array K[] is
transferred to GPU side the base address of the K[] array gets changed
thereby rendering the addresses stored in *KSp[] array invalid.
I'm thinking to transfer a small section of code which generates the *KSp[]
values to the kernel which should fix the problem.
