crypto: Replaced gcc specific attributes with macros from compiler.h

2017-01-12T16:24:39+00:00

Continuing from this commit: 52f5684c8e1e ("kernel: use macros from compiler.h instead of __attribute__((...))") I submitted 4 total patches. They are part of task I've taken up to increase compiler portability in the kernel. I've cleaned up the subsystems under /kernel /mm /block and /security, this patch targets /crypto. There is which provides macros for various gcc specific constructs. Eg: __weak for __attribute__((weak)). I've cleaned all instances of gcc specific attributes with the right macros for the crypto subsystem. I had to make one additional change into compiler-gcc.h for the case when one wants to use this: __attribute__((aligned) and not specify an alignment factor. From the gcc docs, this will result in the largest alignment for that data type on the target machine so I've named the macro __aligned_largest. Please advise if another name is more appropriate.

crypto: acomp - add driver-side scomp interface

2016-10-25T03:08:31+00:00

Add a synchronous back-end (scomp) to acomp. This allows to easily expose the already present compression algorithms in LKCF via acomp. Signed-off-by: Giovanni Cabiddu Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: acomp - add asynchronous compression api

2016-10-25T03:08:30+00:00

Add acomp, an asynchronous compression api that uses scatterlist buffers. Signed-off-by: Giovanni Cabiddu Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu
