This patch add the 842 cryptographic API driver that
submits compression requests to the 842 hardware compression
accelerator driver (nx-compress).
If the hardware accelerator goes offline for any reason
(dynamic disable, migration, etc...), this driver will use LZO
as a software failover for all future compression requests.
For decompression requests, the 842 hardware driver contains
a software implementation of the 842 decompressor to support
the decompression of data that was compressed before the accelerator
went offline.

This is an assembler implementation of the SHA1 algorithm using the
Supplemental SSE3 (SSSE3) instructions or, when available, the
Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX).
Testing with the tcrypt module shows the raw hash performance is up to
2.3 times faster than the C implementation, using 8k data blocks on a
Core 2 Duo T5500. For the smalest data set (16 byte) it is still 25%
faster.
Since this implementation uses SSE/YMM registers it cannot safely be
used in every situation, e.g. while an IRQ interrupts a kernel thread.
The implementation falls back to the generic SHA1 variant, if using
the SSE/YMM registers is not possible.
With this algorithm I was able to increase the throughput of a single
IPsec link from 344 Mbit/s to 464 Mbit/s on a Core 2 Quad CPU using
the SSSE3 variant -- a speedup of +34.8%.
Saving and restoring SSE/YMM state might make the actual throughput
fluctuate when there are FPU intensive userland applications running.
For example, meassuring the performance using iperf2 directly on the
machine under test gives wobbling numbers because iperf2 uses the FPU
for each packet to check if the reporting interval has expired (in the
above test I got min/max/avg: 402/484/464 MBit/s).
Using this algorithm on a IPsec gateway gives much more reasonable and
stable numbers, albeit not as high as in the directly connected case.
Here is the result from an RFC 2544 test run with a EXFO Packet Blazer
FTB-8510:
frame size sha1-generic sha1-ssse3 delta
64 byte 37.5 MBit/s 37.5 MBit/s 0.0%
128 byte 56.3 MBit/s 62.5 MBit/s +11.0%
256 byte 87.5 MBit/s 100.0 MBit/s +14.3%
512 byte 131.3 MBit/s 150.0 MBit/s +14.2%
1024 byte 162.5 MBit/s 193.8 MBit/s +19.3%
1280 byte 175.0 MBit/s 212.5 MBit/s +21.4%
1420 byte 175.0 MBit/s 218.7 MBit/s +25.0%
1518 byte 150.0 MBit/s 181.2 MBit/s +20.8%
The throughput for the largest frame size is lower than for the
previous size because the IP packets need to be fragmented in this
case to make there way through the IPsec tunnel.

One solution would be to make aesni-intel depend on fpu, but it

XTS, 256 bit: 105.0 MB/s 205.5 MB/s +95.7%
Additionally, due to some minor optimizations, the 64-bit version also
got a minor performance gain as seen below:

Both sendmsg(2) and splice(2) support reading the user-space

For now only the splice(2) interface supports performing digest

hardware that cannot return a partial hash state can still benefit
from this interface.

This patch creates the backbone of the user-space interface for
the Crypto API, through a new socket family AF_ALG.
Each session corresponds to one or more connections obtained from
that socket. The number depends on the number of inputs/outputs
of that particular type of operation. For most types there will
be a s ingle connection/file descriptor that is used for both input
and output. AEAD is one of the few that require two inputs.
Each algorithm type will provide its own implementation that plugs
into af_alg. They're keyed using a string such as "skcipher" or
"hash".
IOW this patch only contains the boring bits that is required
to hold everything together.

Because kernel_fpu_begin() and kernel_fpu_end() operations are too
slow, the performance gain of general mode implementation + aes-aesni
is almost all compensated.
The AES-NI support for more modes are implemented as follow:
- Add a new AES algorithm implementation named __aes-aesni without
kernel_fpu_begin/end()
- Use fpu(<mode>(AES)) to provide kenrel_fpu_begin/end() invoking
- Add <mode>(AES) ablkcipher, which uses cryptd(fpu(<mode>(AES))) to
defer cryption to cryptd context in soft_irq context.
Now the ctr, lrw, pcbc and xts support are added.
Performance testing based on dm-crypt shows that cryption time can be
reduced to 50% of general mode implementation + aes-aesni implementation.

Blkcipher touching FPU need to be enclosed by kernel_fpu_begin() and
kernel_fpu_end(). If they are invoked in cipher algorithm
implementation, they will be invoked for each block, so that
performance will be hurt, because they are "slow" operations. This
patch implements "fpu" template, which makes these operations to be
invoked for each request.

The current "comp" crypto interface supports one-shot (de)compression only,
i.e. the whole data buffer to be (de)compressed must be passed at once, and
the whole (de)compressed data buffer will be received at once.
In several use-cases (e.g. compressed file systems that store files in big
compressed blocks), this workflow is not suitable.
Furthermore, the "comp" type doesn't provide for the configuration of
(de)compression parameters, and always allocates workspace memory for both
compression and decompression, which may waste memory.
To solve this, add a "pcomp" partial (de)compression interface that provides
the following operations:
- crypto_compress_{init,update,final}() for compression,
- crypto_decompress_{init,update,final}() for decompression,
- crypto_{,de}compress_setup(), to configure (de)compression parameters
(incl. allocating workspace memory).
The (de)compression methods take a struct comp_request, which was mimicked
after the z_stream object in zlib, and contains buffer pointer and length
pairs for input and output.
The setup methods take an opaque parameter pointer and length pair. Parameters
are supposed to be encoded using netlink attributes, whose meanings depend on
the actual (name of the) (de)compression algorithm.

Use dedicated workqueue for crypto subsystem
A dedicated workqueue named kcrypto_wq is created to be used by crypto
subsystem. The system shared keventd_wq is not suitable for
encryption/decryption, because of potential starvation problem.

Intel AES-NI is a new set of Single Instruction Multiple Data (SIMD)
instructions that are going to be introduced in the next generation of
Intel processor, as of 2009. These instructions enable fast and secure
data encryption and decryption, using the Advanced Encryption Standard
(AES), defined by FIPS Publication number 197. The architecture
introduces six instructions that offer full hardware support for
AES. Four of them support high performance data encryption and
decryption, and the other two instructions support the AES key
expansion procedure.
The white paper can be downloaded from:
http://softwarecommunity.intel.com/isn/downloads/intelavx/AES-Instructions-Set_WP.pdf
AES may be used in soft_irq context, but MMX/SSE context can not be
touched safely in soft_irq context. So in_interrupt() is checked, if
in IRQ or soft_irq context, the general x86_64 implementation are used
instead.

This patch swaps the role of libcrc32c and crc32c. Previously
the implementation was in libcrc32c and crc32c was a wrapper.
Now the code is in crc32c and libcrc32c just calls the crypto
layer.
The reason for the change is to tap into the algorithm selection
capability of the crypto API so that optimised implementations
such as the one utilising Intel's CRC32C instruction can be
used where available.

If we have at least one algorithm built-in then it no longer makes
sense to have the testing framework, and hence cryptomgr to be a
module. It should be either on or off, i.e., built-in or disabled.
This just happens to stop a potential runaway modprobe loop that
seems to trigger on at least one distro.
With fixes from Evgeniy Polyakov.
