2018-01-12crypto: hash - annotate algorithms taking optional keyEric Biggers
We need to consistently enforce that keyed hashes cannot be used without setting the key. To do this we need a reliable way to determine whether a given hash algorithm is keyed or not. AF_ALG currently does this by checking for the presence of a ->setkey() method. However, this is actually slightly broken because the CRC-32 algorithms implement ->setkey() but can also be used without a key. (The CRC-32 "key" is not actually a cryptographic key but rather represents the initial state. If not overridden, then a default initial state is used.) Prepare to fix this by introducing a flag CRYPTO_ALG_OPTIONAL_KEY which indicates that the algorithm has a ->setkey() method, but it is not required to be called. Then set it on all the CRC-32 algorithms. The same also applies to the Adler-32 implementation in Lustre. Also, the cryptd and mcryptd templates have to pass through the flag from their underlying algorithm.

2016-01-30crypto: crc32 - Rename generic implementationHerbert Xu
The generic crc32 implementation is currently called crc32. This is a problem because it clashes with the lib implementation of crc32. This patch renames the crypto crc32 to crc32_generic so that it is consistent with crc32c. An alias for the driver is also added. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
