ksmbd: Use HMAC-SHA256 library for message signing and key generation

2025-12-01T03:11:43+00:00

Convert ksmbd_sign_smb2_pdu() and generate_key() to use the HMAC-SHA256 library instead of a "hmac(sha256)" crypto_shash. This is simpler and faster. With the library there's no need to allocate memory, no need to handle errors, and the HMAC-SHA256 code is accessed directly without inefficient indirect calls and other unnecessary API overhead.

ksmbd: use SHA-256 library API instead of crypto_shash API

2025-05-26T03:54:50+00:00

ksmbd_gen_sd_hash() does not support any other algorithm, so the crypto_shash abstraction provides no value. Just use the SHA-256 library API instead, which is much simpler and easier to use. Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers Acked-by: Namjae Jeon Signed-off-by: Steve French

smb: move client and server files to common directory fs/smb
