crypto: cryptd - disable softirqs in cryptd_queue_worker to prevent data corruption

2012-10-24T13:21:18Z

cryptd_queue_worker attempts to prevent simultaneous accesses to crypto workqueue by cryptd_enqueue_request using preempt_disable/preempt_enable. However cryptd_enqueue_request might be called from softirq context, so add local_bh_disable/local_bh_enable to prevent data corruption and panics. Bug report at http://marc.info/?l=linux-crypto-vger&m=134858649616319&w=2 v2: - Disable software interrupts instead of hardware interrupts Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Reported-by: Gurucharan Shetty Signed-off-by: Jussi Kivilinna Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: cryptd - Use subsys_initcall to prevent races with aesni

2011-08-20T08:08:03Z

As cryptd is depeneded on by other algorithms such as aesni-intel, it needs to be registered before them. When everything is built as modules, this occurs naturally. However, for this to work when they are built-in, we need to use subsys_initcall in cryptd. Tested-by: Josh Boyer Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: cryptd - Adding the AEAD interface type support to cryptd

2010-09-20T08:05:12Z

This patch adds AEAD support into the cryptd framework. Having AEAD support in cryptd enables crypto drivers that use the AEAD interface type (such as the patch for AEAD based RFC4106 AES-GCM implementation using Intel New Instructions) to leverage cryptd for asynchronous processing.

percpu: add __percpu sparse annotations to what's left

2010-02-17T02:17:38Z

Add __percpu sparse annotations to places which didn't make it in one of the previous patches. All converions are trivial. These annotations are to make sparse consider percpu variables to be in a different address space and warn if accessed without going through percpu accessors. This patch doesn't affect normal builds.

crypto: ghash - Add PCLMULQDQ accelerated implementation

2009-10-19T02:53:06Z

PCLMULQDQ is used to accelerate the most time-consuming part of GHASH, carry-less multiplication. More information about PCLMULQDQ can be found at: http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/carry-less-multiplication-and-its-usage-for-computing-the-gcm-mode/ Because PCLMULQDQ changes XMM state, its usage must be enclosed with kernel_fpu_begin/end, which can be used only in process context, the acceleration is implemented as crypto_ahash. That is, request in soft IRQ context will be defered to the cryptd kernel thread. Signed-off-by: Huang Ying Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

this_cpu: Use this_cpu_ptr in crypto subsystem

2009-10-03T10:48:23Z

Just a slight optimization that removes one array lookup. The processor number is needed for other things as well so the get/put_cpu cannot be removed. Acked-by: Tejun Heo Cc: Huang Ying Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo

crypto: cryptd - Add support to access underlaying shash

2009-08-06T05:35:20Z

cryptd_alloc_ahash() will allocate a cryptd-ed ahash for specified algorithm name. The new allocated one is guaranteed to be cryptd-ed ahash, so the shash underlying can be gotten via cryptd_ahash_child(). Signed-off-by: Huang Ying Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: cryptd - Add finup/export/import for hash

2009-07-22T03:10:22Z

This patch adds the finup/export/import functions to the cryptd ahash implementation. We simply invoke the underlying shash operations. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: cryptd - Fix uninitialized return value

2009-07-15T08:51:04Z

If cryptd_alloc_instance() fails, the return value is uninitialized. This patch fixes this by setting the return value. Signed-off-by: Steffen Klassert Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu
