Herbert Xu 81760ea6a9 crypto: cryptd - Add helpers to check whether a tfm is queued
This patch adds helpers to check whether a given tfm is currently
queued.  This is meant to be used by ablk_helper and similar
entities to ensure that no reordering is introduced because of
requests queued in cryptd with respect to requests being processed
in softirq context.

The per-cpu queue length limit is also increased to 1000 in line
with network limits.

Wang, Rui Y 1a07834024 crypto: cryptd - Assign statesize properly
cryptd_create_hash() fails by returning -EINVAL.  It is because after
8996eafdc ("crypto: ahash - ensure statesize is non-zero") all ahash
drivers must have a non-zero statesize.

This patch fixes the problem by properly assigning the statesize.

Herbert Xu ec9f2006fc crypto: cryptd - Fix AEAD request context corruption
The AEAD version of cryptd uses the same context for its own state
as well as that of the child.  In doing so it did not maintain the
proper ordering, thus resulting in potential state corruption where
the child will overwrite the state stored by cryptd.

This patch fixes and also sets the request size properly.

As AEAD has switched over to using frontend types, the function
crypto_init_spawn must not be used since it does not specify a

This patch fixes it by switching over to crypto_grab_aead instead.

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.

Huang Ying 0e1227d356 crypto: ghash - Add PCLMULQDQ accelerated implementation
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.

Huang Ying 254eff7714 crypto: cryptd - Per-CPU thread implementation based on kcrypto_wq
Original cryptd thread implementation has scalability issue, this
patch solve the issue with a per-CPU thread implementation.

struct cryptd_queue is defined to be a per-CPU queue, which holds one
struct cryptd_cpu_queue for each CPU. In struct cryptd_cpu_queue, a
struct crypto_queue holds all requests for the CPU, a struct
work_struct is used to run all requests for the CPU.

Testing based on dm-crypt on an Intel Core 2 E6400 (two cores) machine
shows 19.2% performance gain. The testing script is as follow:

-------------------- script begin ---------------------------
#!/bin/sh

dmc_create()
{
        # Create a crypt device using dmsetup
        dmsetup create $2 --table "0 `blockdev --getsize $1` crypt cbc(aes-asm)?cryptd?plain:plain babebabebabebabebabebabebabebabe 0 $1 0"
}

dmsetup remove crypt0
dmsetup remove crypt1

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ram0 bs=1M count=4 >& /dev/null
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ram1 bs=1M count=4 >& /dev/null

dmc_create /dev/ram0 crypt0
dmc_create /dev/ram1 crypt1

cat >tr.sh <<EOF
#!/bin/sh

for n in \$(seq 10); do
        dd if=/dev/dm-0 of=/dev/null >& /dev/null &
        dd if=/dev/dm-1 of=/dev/null >& /dev/null &
done
wait
EOF

for n in $(seq 10); do
        /usr/bin/time sh tr.sh
done
rm tr.sh
-------------------- script end   ---------------------------

The separator of dm-crypt parameter is changed from "-" to "?", because
"-" is used in some cipher driver name too, and cryptds need to specify
cipher driver name instead of cipher name.

The test result on an Intel Core2 E6400 (two cores) is as follow:

Herbert Xu 332f8840f7 [CRYPTO] ablkcipher: Add distinct ABLKCIPHER type
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
