Upstream: commit 2ec6761df889fdf896fde761abd447596dd8f8c2 Conflict: none This patch registers the deflate-iaa deflate compression algorithm and hooks it up to the IAA hardware using the 'fixed' compression mode introduced in the previous patch. Because the IAA hardware has a 4k history-window limitation, only buffers <= 4k, or that have been compressed using a <= 4k history window, are technically compliant with the deflate spec, which allows for a window of up to 32k. Because of this limitation, the IAA fixed mode deflate algorithm is given its own algorithm name, 'deflate-iaa'. With this change, the deflate-iaa crypto algorithm is registered and operational, and compression and decompression operations are fully enabled following the successful binding of the first IAA workqueue to the iaa_crypto sub-driver. when there are no IAA workqueues bound to the driver, the IAA crypto algorithm can be unregistered by removing the module. A new iaa_crypto 'verify_compress' driver attribute is also added, allowing the user to toggle compression verification. If set, each compress will be internally decompressed and the contents verified, returning error codes if unsuccessful. This can be toggled with 0/1: echo 0 > /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/crypto/verify_compress The default setting is '1' - verify all compresses. The verify_compress value setting at the time the algorithm is registered is captured in the algorithm's crypto_ctx and used for all compresses when using the algorithm.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
