<title>crypto: shash - convert shash_free_instance() to new style</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a39c66cc2f6108c8346dc882bdcf72861aaca956</id>
<content type='text'>
Convert shash_free_instance() and its users to the new way of freeing
instances, where a -&gt;free() method is installed to the instance struct
itself.  This replaces the weakly-typed method crypto_template::free().

This will allow removing support for the old way of freeing instances.

Also give shash_free_instance() a more descriptive name to reflect that
it's only for instances with a single spawn, not for any instance.

<content type='text'>
Add support to shash and ahash for the new way of freeing instances
(already used for skcipher, aead, and akcipher) where a -&gt;free() method
is installed to the instance struct itself.  These methods are more
strongly-typed than crypto_template::free(), which they replace.

This will allow removing support for the old way of freeing instances.

Now that all the templates that need ahash spawns have been converted to
use crypto_grab_ahash() rather than look up the algorithm directly,
crypto_ahash_type is no longer used outside of ahash.c.  Make it static.

<content type='text'>
Remove lots of helper functions that were previously used for
instantiating crypto templates, but are now unused:

- crypto_get_attr_alg() and similar functions looked up an inner
  algorithm directly from a template parameter.  These were replaced
  with getting the algorithm's name, then calling crypto_grab_*().

- crypto_init_spawn2() and similar functions initialized a spawn, given
  an algorithm.  Similarly, these were replaced with crypto_grab_*().

- crypto_alloc_instance() and similar functions allocated an instance
  with a single spawn, given the inner algorithm.  These aren't useful
  anymore since crypto_grab_*() need the instance allocated first.

Currently, ahash spawns are initialized by using ahash_attr_alg() or
crypto_find_alg() to look up the ahash algorithm, then calling
crypto_init_ahash_spawn().

This is different from how skcipher, aead, and akcipher spawns are
initialized (they use crypto_grab_*()), and for no good reason.  This
difference introduces unnecessary complexity.

The crypto_grab_*() functions used to have some problems, like not
holding a reference to the algorithm and requiring the caller to
initialize spawn-&gt;base.inst.  But those problems are fixed now.

So, let's introduce crypto_grab_ahash() so that we can convert all
templates to the same way of initializing their spawns.

<title>crypto: ahash - make struct ahash_instance be the full size</title>

Define struct ahash_instance in a way analogous to struct
skcipher_instance, struct aead_instance, and struct akcipher_instance,
where the struct is defined to include both the algorithm structure at
the beginning and the additional crypto_instance fields at the end.

This is needed to allow allocating ahash instances directly using
kzalloc(sizeof(*inst) + sizeof(*ictx), ...) in the same way as skcipher,
aead, and akcipher instances.  In turn, that's needed to make spawns be
initialized in a consistent way everywhere.

Also take advantage of the addition of the base instance to struct
ahash_instance by simplifying the ahash_crypto_instance() and
ahash_instance() functions.

<title>crypto: algapi - make unregistration functions return void</title>

<content type='text'>
Some of the algorithm unregistration functions return -ENOENT when asked
to unregister a non-registered algorithm, while others always return 0
or always return void.  But no users check the return value, except for
two of the bulk unregistration functions which print a message on error
but still always return 0 to their caller, and crypto_del_alg() which
calls crypto_unregister_instance() which always returns 0.

Since unregistering a non-registered algorithm is always a kernel bug
but there isn't anything callers should do to handle this situation at
runtime, let's simplify things by making all the unregistration
functions return void, and moving the error message into
crypto_unregister_alg() and upgrading it to a WARN().

<content type='text'>
This patch switches hmac over to the new init_tfm/exit_tfm interface
as opposed to cra_init/cra_exit.  This way the shash API can make
sure that descsize does not exceed the maximum.

This patch also adds the API helper shash_alg_instance.
