Revert "crypto: run initcalls for generic implementations earlier"

2025-05-05T10:20:44+00:00

This reverts commit c4741b23059794bd99beef0f700103b0d983b3fd. Crypto API self-tests no longer run at registration time and now occur either at late_initcall or upon the first use. Therefore the premise of the above commit no longer exists. Revert it and subsequent additions of subsys_initcall and arch_initcall. Note that lib/crypto calls will stay at subsys_initcall (or rather downgraded from arch_initcall) because they may need to occur before Crypto API registration. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

module: Convert symbol namespace to string literal

2024-12-02T19:34:44+00:00

Clean up the existing export namespace code along the same lines of commit 33def8498fdd ("treewide: Convert macro and uses of __section(foo) to __section("foo")") and for the same reason, it is not desired for the namespace argument to be a macro expansion itself. Scripted using git grep -l -e MODULE_IMPORT_NS -e EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS | while read file; do awk -i inplace ' /^#define EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS/ { gsub(/__stringify$ns$/, "ns"); print; next; } /^#define MODULE_IMPORT_NS/ { gsub(/__stringify$ns$/, "ns"); print; next; } /MODULE_IMPORT_NS/ { $0 = gensub(/MODULE_IMPORT_NS$([^)]*)$/, "MODULE_IMPORT_NS(\"\\1\")", "g"); } /EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS/ { if ($0 ~ /(EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS[^(]*)$([^,]+),/) { if ($0 !~ /(EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS[^(]*)\(([^,]+), ([^)]+)$/ && $0 !~ /(EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS[^(]*)/ && $0 !~ /^my/) { getline line; gsub(/[[:space:]]*\\$/, ""); gsub(/[[:space:]]/, "", line); $0 = $0 " " line; } $0 = gensub(/(EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS[^(]*)$([^,]+), ([^)]+)$/, "\\1(\\2, \"\\3\")", "g"); } } { print }' $file; done Requested-by: Masahiro Yamada Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) Link: https://mail.google.com/mail/u/2/#inbox/FMfcgzQXKWgMmjdFwwdsfgxzKpVHWPlc Acked-by: Greg KH Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

crypto: hctr2 - stop using alignmask of shash_alg

2023-10-27T10:04:25+00:00

Now that the shash algorithm type does not support nonzero alignmasks, shash_alg::base.cra_alignmask is always 0, so OR-ing it into another value is a no-op. Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: hctr2 - Only access common skcipher fields on spawn

2023-10-13T10:27:27+00:00

As skcipher spawns may be of the type lskcipher, only the common fields may be accessed. This was already the case but use the correct helpers to make this more obvious. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: api - Use data directly in completion function

2023-02-13T10:35:14+00:00

This patch does the final flag day conversion of all completion functions which are now all contained in the Crypto API. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: hctr2 - Add HCTR2 support

2022-06-10T08:40:17+00:00

Add support for HCTR2 as a template. HCTR2 is a length-preserving encryption mode that is efficient on processors with instructions to accelerate AES and carryless multiplication, e.g. x86 processors with AES-NI and CLMUL, and ARM processors with the ARMv8 Crypto Extensions. As a length-preserving encryption mode, HCTR2 is suitable for applications such as storage encryption where ciphertext expansion is not possible, and thus authenticated encryption cannot be used. Currently, such applications usually use XTS, or in some cases Adiantum. XTS has the disadvantage that it is a narrow-block mode: a bitflip will only change 16 bytes in the resulting ciphertext or plaintext. This reveals more information to an attacker than necessary. HCTR2 is a wide-block mode, so it provides a stronger security property: a bitflip will change the entire message. HCTR2 is somewhat similar to Adiantum, which is also a wide-block mode. However, HCTR2 is designed to take advantage of existing crypto instructions, while Adiantum targets devices without such hardware support. Adiantum is also designed with longer messages in mind, while HCTR2 is designed to be efficient even on short messages. HCTR2 requires POLYVAL and XCTR as components.
