2008-01-11[CRYPTO] tcrypt: AES CBC test vectors from NIST SP800-38AJan Glauber
Add test vectors to tcrypt for AES in CBC mode for key sizes 192 and 256. The test vectors are copied from NIST SP800-38A. Signed-off-by: Jan Glauber <jang@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2008-01-11[CRYPTO] tcrypt: AES CTR large test vectorTan Swee Heng
This patch adds a large AES CTR mode test vector. The test vector is 4100 bytes in size. It was generated using a C++ program that called Crypto++. Note that this patch increases considerably the size of "struct cipher_testvec" and hence the size of tcrypt.ko.

2008-01-11[CRYPTO] tcrypt: Support for large test vectorsTan Swee Heng
Currently the number of entries in a cipher test vector template is limited by TVMEMSIZE/sizeof(struct cipher_testvec). This patch circumvents the problem by pointing cipher_tv to each entry in the template, rather than the template itself.

2008-01-11[CRYPTO] ctr: Fix multi-page processingHerbert Xu
When the data spans across a page boundary, CTR may incorrectly process a partial block in the middle because the blkcipher walking code may supply partial blocks in the middle as long as the total length of the supplied data is more than a block. CTR is supposed to return any unused partial block in that case to the walker. This patch fixes this by doing exactly that, returning partial blocks to the walker unless we received less than a block-worth of data to start with. This also allows us to optimise the bulk of the processing since we no longer have to worry about partial blocks until the very end. Thanks to Tan Swee Heng for fixes and actually testing this :) Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

2008-01-11[CRYPTO] pcbc: Use crypto_xorHerbert Xu

2008-01-11[CRYPTO] cbc: Require block size to be a power of 2Herbert Xu
All common block ciphers have a block size that's a power of 2. In fact, all of our block ciphers obey this rule. If we require this then CBC can be optimised to avoid an expensive divide on in-place decryption. I've also changed the saving of the first IV in the in-place decryption case to the last IV because that lets us use walk->iv (which is already aligned) for the xor operation where alignment is required.

2008-01-11[CRYPTO] api: Add crypto_inc and crypto_xorHerbert Xu
With the addition of more stream ciphers we need to curb the proliferation of ad-hoc xor functions. This patch creates a generic pair of functions, crypto_inc and crypto_xor which does big-endian increment and exclusive or, respectively. For optimum performance, they both use u32 operations so alignment must be as that of u32 even though the arguments are of type u8 *. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

2008-01-11[HIFN]: Improve PLL initializationPatrick McHardy
The current PLL initalization has a number of deficiencies: - uses fixed multiplier of 8, which overclocks the chip when using a reference clock that operates at frequencies above 33MHz. According to a comment in the BSD source, this is true for the external clock on almost all every board. - writes to a reserved bit - doesn't follow the initialization procedure specified in chapter 6.11.1 of the HIFN hardware users guide - doesn't allow to use the PCI clock This patch adds a module parameter to specify the reference clock (pci or external) and its frequency and uses that to calculate the optimum multiplier to reach the maximal speed. By default it uses the external clock and assumes a speed of 66MHz, which effectively halfs the frequency currently used.

2008-01-11[CRYPTO] ablkcipher: Add distinct ABLKCIPHER typeHerbert Xu
Up until now we have ablkcipher algorithms have been identified as type BLKCIPHER with the ASYNC bit set. This is suboptimal because ablkcipher refers to two things. On the one hand it refers to the top-level ablkcipher interface with requests. On the other hand it refers to and algorithm type underneath. As it is you cannot request a synchronous block cipher algorithm with the ablkcipher interface on top. This is a problem because we want to be able to eventually phase out the blkcipher top-level interface. This patch fixes this by making ABLKCIPHER its own type, just as we have distinct types for HASH and DIGEST. The type it associated with the algorithm implementation only. Which top-level interface is used for synchronous block ciphers is then determined by the mask that's used. If it's a specific mask then the old blkcipher interface is given, otherwise we go with the new ablkcipher interface. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

It is done by simply scheduling callback invocation via dedicated tasklet.

2008-01-11[CRYPTO] ctr: Add countersizeJoy Latten
This patch adds countersize to CTR mode. The template is now ctr(algo,noncesize,ivsize,countersize). For example, ctr(aes,4,8,4) indicates the counterblock will be composed of a salt/nonce that is 4 bytes, an iv that is 8 bytes and the counter is 4 bytes. When noncesize + ivsize < blocksize, CTR initializes the last block - ivsize - noncesize portion of the block to zero. Otherwise the counter block is composed of the IV (and nonce if necessary). If noncesize + ivsize == blocksize, then this indicates that user is passing in entire counterblock. Thus countersize indicates the amount of bytes in counterblock to use as the counter for incrementing. CTR will increment counter portion by 1, and begin encryption with that value. Note that CTR assumes the counter portion of the block that will be incremented is stored in big endian.

2008-01-11[CRYPTO] ctr: Add CTR (Counter) block cipher modeJoy Latten
This patch implements CTR mode for IPsec. It is based off of RFC 3686. Please note: 1. CTR turns a block cipher into a stream cipher. Encryption is done in blocks, however the last block may be a partial block. A "counter block" is encrypted, creating a keystream that is xor'ed with the plaintext. The counter portion of the counter block is incremented after each block of plaintext is encrypted. Decryption is performed in same manner. 2. The CTR counterblock is composed of, nonce + IV + counter The size of the counterblock is equivalent to the blocksize of the cipher. sizeof(nonce) + sizeof(IV) + sizeof(counter) = blocksize The CTR template requires the name of the cipher algorithm, the sizeof the nonce, and the sizeof the iv. ctr(cipher,sizeof_nonce,sizeof_iv) So for example, ctr(aes,4,8) specifies the counterblock will be composed of 4 bytes from a nonce, 8 bytes from the iv, and 4 bytes for counter since aes has a blocksize of 16 bytes. 3. The counter portion of the counter block is stored in big endian for conformance to rfc 3686. Signed-off-by: Joy Latten <latten@austin.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
