2009-07-14crypto: ahash - Remove old_ahash_algHerbert Xu
Now that all ahash implementations have been converted to the new ahash type, we can remove old_ahash_alg and its associated support. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2009-07-14crypto: ahash - Convert to new style algorithmsHerbert Xu
This patch converts crypto_ahash to the new style. The old ahash algorithm type is retained until the existing ahash implementations are also converted. All ahash users will automatically get the new crypto_ahash type. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2009-07-14crypto: shash - Make descsize a run-time attributeHerbert Xu
This patch changes descsize to a run-time attribute so that implementations can change it in their init functions. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2009-07-12crypto: async - Use kzfree for requestsHerbert Xu
This patch changes the kfree call to kzfree for async requests. As the request may contain sensitive data it needs to be zeroed before it can be reallocated by others. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2009-07-11crypto: shash - Export/import hash state onlyHerbert Xu
This patch replaces the full descriptor export with an export of the partial hash state. This allows the use of a consistent export format across all implementations of a given algorithm. This is useful because a number of cases require the use of the partial hash state, e.g., PadLock can use the SHA1 hash state to get around the fact that it can only hash contiguous data chunks.

2009-02-18crypto: shash - Add crypto_shash_blocksizeHerbert Xu
This function is needed by algorithms that don't know their own block size, e.g., in s390 where the code is common between multiple versions of SHA. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2009-02-05crypto: shash - Fix tfm destructionHerbert Xu
We were freeing an offset into the slab object instead of the start. This patch fixes it by calling crypto_destroy_tfm which allows the correct address to be given. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2008-12-25crypto: hash - Add import/export interfaceHerbert Xu
It is often useful to save the partial state of a hash function so that it can be used as a base for two or more computations. The most prominent example is HMAC where all hashes start from a base determined by the key. Having an import/export interface means that we only have to compute that base once rather than for each message. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2008-12-25crypto: hash - Add shash interfaceHerbert Xu
The shash interface replaces the current synchronous hash interface. It improves over hash in two ways. Firstly shash is reentrant, meaning that the same tfm may be used by two threads simultaneously as all hashing state is stored in a local descriptor. The other enhancement is that shash no longer takes scatter list entries. This is because shash is specifically designed for synchronous algorithms and as such scatter lists are unnecessary. All existing hash users will be converted to shash once the algorithms have been completely converted. There is also a new finup function that combines update with final. This will be extended to ahash once the algorithm conversion is done. This is also the first time that an algorithm type has their own registration function. Existing algorithm types will be converted to this way in due course. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2008-08-13crypto: hash - Add missing top-level functionsHerbert Xu
The top-level functions init/update/final were missing for ahash. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2008-07-10crypto: hash - Move ahash functions into crypto/hash.hHerbert Xu
All new crypto interfaces should go into individual files as much as possible in order to ensure that crypto.h does not collapse under its own weight. This patch moves the ahash code into crypto/hash.h and crypto/internal/hash.h respectively. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
