* [CRYPTO] sha: Add header file for SHA definitionsJan Glauber2007-10-103-70/+32

* [CRYPTO] sha: Load the SHA[1|256] module by an aliasSebastian Siewior2007-10-103-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Loading the crypto algorithm by the alias instead of by module directly has the advantage that all possible implementations of this algorithm are loaded automatically and the crypto API can choose the best one depending on its priority. Additionally it ensures that the generic implementation as well as the HW driver (if available) is loaded in case the HW driver needs the generic version as fallback in corner cases. Also remove the probe for sha1 in padlock's init code. Quote from Herbert: The probe is actually pointless since we can always probe when the algorithm is actually used which does not lead to dead-locks like this.

* [CRYPTO] blkcipher: Added blkcipher_walk_virt_blockHerbert Xu2007-10-101-10/+24
| | | | | | | | | This patch adds the helper blkcipher_walk_virt_block which is similar to blkcipher_walk_virt but uses a supplied block size instead of the block size of the block cipher. This is useful for CTR where the block size is 1 but we still want to walk by the block size of the underlying cipher. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
* [CRYPTO] blkcipher: Increase kmalloc amount to aligned block sizeHerbert Xu2007-10-101-1/+1
| | | | | | | | Now that the block size is no longer a multiple of the alignment, we need to increase the kmalloc amount in blkcipher_next_slow to use the aligned block size. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
* [CRYPTO] api: Explain the comparison on larval cra_nameHerbert Xu2007-10-101-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a comment to explain why we compare the cra_driver_name of the algorithm being registered against the cra_name of a larval as opposed to the cra_driver_name of the larval. In fact larvals have only one name, cra_name which is the name that was requested by the user. The test here is simply trying to find out whether the algorithm being registered can or can not satisfy the larval. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
* [CRYPTO] blkcipher: Remove alignment restriction on block sizeHerbert Xu2007-10-102-8/+8
| | | | | | | | | | Previously we assumed for convenience that the block size is a multiple of the algorithm's required alignment. With the pending addition of CTR this will no longer be the case as the block size will be 1 due to it being a stream cipher. However, the alignment requirement will be that of the underlying implementation which will most likely be greater than 1. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

| | | | | | | | | | As Joy Latten points out, inner algorithm parameters will miss the closing bracket which will also cause the outer algorithm to terminate prematurely. This patch fixes that also kills the WARN_ON if the number of parameters exceed the maximum as that is a user error. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
* [CRYPTO] xts: XTS blockcipher mode implementation without partial blocksRik Snel2007-10-106-0/+744
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | XTS currently considered to be the successor of the LRW mode by the IEEE1619 workgroup. LRW was discarded, because it was not secure if the encyption key itself is encrypted with LRW. XTS does not have this problem. The implementation is pretty straightforward, a new function was added to gf128mul to handle GF(128) elements in ble format. Four testvectors from the specification http://grouper.ieee.org/groups/1619/email/pdf00086.pdf were added, and they verify on my system.

* [CRYPTO] api: Kill crypto_km_typesHerbert Xu2007-10-102-11/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When scatterwalk is built as a module digest.c was broken because it requires the crypto_km_types structure which is in scatterwalk. This patch removes the crypto_km_types structure by encoding the logic into crypto_kmap_type directly. In fact, this even saves a few bytes of code (not to mention the data structure itself) on i386 which is about the only place where it's needed.

* [CRYPTO] aead: Add authencHerbert Xu2007-10-104-3/+429
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the authenc algorithm which constructs an AEAD algorithm from an asynchronous block cipher and a hash. The construction is done by concatenating the encrypted result from the cipher with the output from the hash, as is used by the IPsec ESP protocol. The authenc algorithm exists as a template with four parameters: authenc(auth, authsize, enc, enckeylen). The authentication algorithm, the authentication size (i.e., truncating the output of the authentication algorithm), the encryption algorithm, and the encryption key length. Both the size field and the key length field are in bytes. For example, AES-128 with SHA1-HMAC would be represented by authenc(hmac(sha1), 12, cbc(aes), 16) The key for the authenc algorithm is the concatenation of the keys for the authentication algorithm with the encryption algorithm. For the above example, if a key of length 36 bytes is given, then hmac(sha1) would receive the first 20 bytes while the last 16 would be given to cbc(aes).

* [CRYPTO] scatterwalk: Add scatterwalk_map_and_copyHerbert Xu2007-10-102-0/+25
| | | | | | | | | This patch adds the function scatterwalk_map_and_copy which reads or writes a chunk of data from a scatterlist at a given offset. It will be used by authenc which would read/write the authentication data at the end of the cipher/plain text. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
* [CRYPTO] api: Move scatterwalk into algapiHerbert Xu2007-10-101-2/+2

* [CRYPTO] api: Add support for multiple template parametersHerbert Xu2007-10-102-27/+76
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds support for having multiple parameters to a template, separated by a comma. It also adds support for integer parameters in addition to the current algorithm parameter type. This will be used by the authenc template which will have four parameters: the authentication algorithm, the encryption algorithm, the authentication size and the encryption key length.

* [CRYPTO] api: Add aead crypto typeHerbert Xu2007-10-103-0/+106
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds crypto_aead which is the interface for AEAD (Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data) algorithms. AEAD algorithms perform authentication and encryption in one step. Traditionally users (such as IPsec) would use two different crypto algorithms to perform these. With AEAD this comes down to one algorithm and one operation. Of course if traditional algorithms were used we'd still be doing two operations underneath. However, real AEAD algorithms may allow the underlying operations to be optimised as well. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

It is implemented as a dmaengine client that smooths over the details of different hardware offload engine implementations. Code that is written to the api can optimize for asynchronous operation and the api will fit the chain of operations to the available offload resources. I imagine that any piece of ADMA hardware would register with the 'async_*' subsystem, and a call to async_X would be routed as appropriate, or be run in-line. - Neil Brown async_tx exploits the capabilities of struct dma_async_tx_descriptor to provide an api of the following general format: struct dma_async_tx_descriptor * async_<operation>(..., struct dma_async_tx_descriptor *depend_tx, dma_async_tx_callback cb_fn, void *cb_param) { struct dma_chan *chan = async_tx_find_channel(depend_tx, <operation>); struct dma_device *device = chan ? chan->device : NULL; int int_en = cb_fn ? 1 : 0; struct dma_async_tx_descriptor *tx = device ? device->device_prep_dma_<operation>(chan, len, int_en) : NULL; if (tx) { /* run <operation> asynchronously */ ... tx->tx_set_dest(addr, tx, index); ... tx->tx_set_src(addr, tx, index); ... async_tx_submit(chan, tx, flags, depend_tx, cb_fn, cb_param); } else { /* run <operation> synchronously */ ... <operation> ... async_tx_sync_epilog(flags, depend_tx, cb_fn, cb_param); } return tx; } async_tx_find_channel() returns a capable channel from its pool. The channel pool is organized as a per-cpu array of channel pointers. The async_tx_rebalance() routine is tasked with managing these arrays. In the uniprocessor case async_tx_rebalance() tries to spread responsibility evenly over channels of similar capabilities. For example if there are two copy+xor channels, one will handle copy operations and the other will handle xor. In the SMP case async_tx_rebalance() attempts to spread the operations evenly over the cpus, e.g. cpu0 gets copy channel0 and xor channel0 while cpu1 gets copy channel 1 and xor channel 1. When a dependency is specified async_tx_find_channel defaults to keeping the operation on the same channel. A xor->copy->xor chain will stay on one channel if it supports both operation types, otherwise the transaction will transition between a copy and a xor resource. Currently the raid5 implementation in the MD raid456 driver has been converted to the async_tx api. A driver for the offload engines on the Intel Xscale series of I/O processors, iop-adma, is provided in a later commit. With the iop-adma driver and async_tx, raid456 is able to offload copy, xor, and xor-zero-sum operations to hardware engines. On iop342 tiobench showed higher throughput for sequential writes (20 - 30% improvement) and sequential reads to a degraded array (40 - 55% improvement). For the other cases performance was roughly equal, +/- a few percentage points. On a x86-smp platform the performance of the async_tx implementation (in synchronous mode) was also +/- a few percentage points of the original implementation. According to 'top' on iop342 CPU utilization drops from ~50% to ~15% during a 'resync' while the speed according to /proc/mdstat doubles from ~25 MB/s to ~50 MB/s. The tiobench command line used for testing was: tiobench --size 2048 --block 4096 --block 131072 --dir /mnt/raid --numruns 5 * iop342 had 1GB of memory available Details: * if CONFIG_DMA_ENGINE=n the asynchronous path is compiled away by making async_tx_find_channel a static inline routine that always returns NULL * when a callback is specified for a given transaction an interrupt will fire at operation completion time and the callback will occur in a tasklet. if the the channel does not support interrupts then a live polling wait will be performed * the api is written as a dmaengine client that requests all available channels * In support of dependencies the api implicitly schedules channel-switch interrupts. The interrupt triggers the cleanup tasklet which causes pending operations to be scheduled on the next channel * Xor engines treat an xor destination address differently than a software xor routine. To the software routine the destination address is an implied source, whereas engines treat it as a write-only destination. This patch modifies the xor_blocks routine to take a an explicit destination address to mirror the hardware.

* [CRYPTO] templates: Pass type/mask when creating instancesHerbert Xu2007-05-028-34/+103
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch passes the type/mask along when constructing instances of templates. This is in preparation for templates that may support multiple types of instances depending on what is requested. For example, the planned software async crypto driver will use this construct. For the moment this allows us to check whether the instance constructed is of the correct type and avoid returning success if the type does not match.

* [CRYPTO] tcrypt: Use async blkcipher interfaceHerbert Xu2007-05-021-39/+82
| | | | | | | | This patch converts the tcrypt module to use the asynchronous block cipher interface. As all synchronous block ciphers can be used through the async interface, tcrypt is still able to test them. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
* [CRYPTO] api: Add async block cipher interfaceHerbert Xu2007-05-021-5/+65
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the frontend interface for asynchronous block ciphers. In addition to the usual block cipher parameters, there is a callback function pointer and a data pointer. The callback will be invoked only if the encrypt/decrypt handlers return -EINPROGRESS. In other words, if the return value of zero the completion handler (or the equivalent code) needs to be invoked by the caller. The request structure is allocated and freed by the caller. Its size is determined by calling crypto_ablkcipher_reqsize(). The helpers ablkcipher_request_alloc/ablkcipher_request_free can be used to manage the memory for a request.
