2019-11-22crypto: essiv - remove redundant null pointer check before kfreeChen Wandun1-2/+1
kfree has taken null pointer check into account. so it is safe to remove the unnecessary check. Signed-off-by: Chen Wandun <chenwandun@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2019-11-01crypto: skcipher - remove the "blkcipher" algorithm typeEric Biggers1-3/+3
Now that all "blkcipher" algorithms have been converted to "skcipher", remove the blkcipher algorithm type. The skcipher (symmetric key cipher) algorithm type was introduced a few years ago to replace both blkcipher and ablkcipher (synchronous and asynchronous block cipher). The advantages of skcipher include: - A much less confusing name, since none of these algorithm types have ever actually been for raw block ciphers, but rather for all length-preserving encryption modes including block cipher modes of operation, stream ciphers, and other length-preserving modes. - It unified blkcipher and ablkcipher into a single algorithm type which supports both synchronous and asynchronous implementations. Note, blkcipher already operated only on scatterlists, so the fact that skcipher does too isn't a regression in functionality. - Better type safety by using struct skcipher_alg, struct crypto_skcipher, etc. instead of crypto_alg, crypto_tfm, etc. - It sometimes simplifies the implementations of algorithms. Also, the blkcipher API was no longer being tested. Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2019-09-03crypto: essiv - create wrapper template for ESSIV generationArd Biesheuvel1-0/+663
Implement a template that wraps a (skcipher,shash) or (aead,shash) tuple so that we can consolidate the ESSIV handling in fscrypt and dm-crypt and move it into the crypto API. This will result in better test coverage, and will allow future changes to make the bare cipher interface internal to the crypto subsystem, in order to increase robustness of the API against misuse.
