<content type='text'>
Until now, there was only support for the SHA1 multibuffer algorithm.
Hence, there was just one sha-mb folder. Now, with the introduction of
the SHA256 multi-buffer algorithm , it is logical to name the existing
folder as sha1-mb.

Herbert wants the sha1-mb algorithm to have an async implementation:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/4/5/286.
Currently, sha1-mb uses an async interface for the outer algorithm
and a sync interface for the inner algorithm. This patch introduces
a async interface for even the inner algorithm.

Currently there are several checkpatch warnings in the sha1_mb.c file:
'WARNING: line over 80 characters' in the sha1_mb.c file. Also, the
syntax of some multi-line comments are not correct. This patch fixes
these issues.

<content type='text'>
Megha Dey reported a kernel panic in crypto code.  The problem is that
sha1_x8_avx2() clobbers registers r12-r15 without saving and restoring
them.

Before commit aec4d0e301f1 ("x86/asm/crypto: Simplify stack usage in
sha-mb functions"), those registers were saved and restored by the
callers of the function.  I removed them with that commit because I
didn't realize sha1_x8_avx2() clobbered them.

Fix the potential undefined behavior associated with clobbering the
registers and make the behavior less surprising by changing the
registers to be callee saved/restored to conform with the C function
call ABI.

Also, rdx (aka RSP_SAVE) doesn't need to be saved: I verified that none
of the callers rely on it being saved, and it's not a callee-saved
register in the C ABI.

Fixes: aec4d0e301f1 ("x86/asm/crypto: Simplify stack usage in sha-mb functions")

<content type='text'>
Four instances of incorrect usage of non-static "inline" crept up
in arch/x86, all trivial; cleaning them up:

EVT_TO_HPET_DEV() - made static, it is only used in kernel/hpet.c

Debug version of check_iommu_entries() is an __init function.
Non-debug dummy empty version of it is declared "inline" instead -
which doesn't help to eliminate it (the caller is in a different unit,
inlining doesn't happen).
Switch to non-inlined __init function, which does eliminate it
(by discarding it as part of __init section).

crypto/sha-mb/sha1_mb.c: looks like they just forgot to add "static"
to their two internal inlines, which emitted two unused functions into
vmlinux.

In sha_complete_job, incorrect mcryptd_hash_request_ctx pointer is used
when check and complete other jobs. If the memory of first completed req
is freed, while still completing other jobs in the func, kernel will
crash since NULL pointer is assigned to RIP.

Pull 'objtool' stack frame validation from Ingo Molnar:
 "This tree adds a new kernel build-time object file validation feature
  (ONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION=y): kernel stack frame correctness validation.
  It was written by and is maintained by Josh Poimboeuf.

  The motivation: there's a category of hard to find kernel bugs, most
  of them in assembly code (but also occasionally in C code), that
  degrades the quality of kernel stack dumps/backtraces.  These bugs are
  hard to detect at the source code level.  Such bugs result in
  incorrect/incomplete backtraces most of time - but can also in some
  rare cases result in crashes or other undefined behavior.

  The build time correctness checking is done via the new 'objtool'
  user-space utility that was written for this purpose and which is
  hosted in the kernel repository in tools/objtool/.  The tool's (very
  simple) UI and source code design is shaped after Git and perf and
  shares quite a bit of infrastructure with tools/perf (which tooling
  infrastructure sharing effort got merged via perf and is already
  upstream).  Objtool follows the well-known kernel coding style.

  Objtool does not try to check .c or .S files, it instead analyzes the
  resulting .o generated machine code from first principles: it decodes
  the instruction stream and interprets it.  (Right now objtool supports
  the x86-64 architecture.)

  From tools/objtool/Documentation/stack-validation.txt:

   "The kernel CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION option enables a host tool named
    objtool which runs at compile time.  It has a "check" subcommand
    which analyzes every .o file and ensures the validity of its stack
    metadata.  It enforces a set of rules on asm code and C inline
    assembly code so that stack traces can be reliable.

    Currently it only checks frame pointer usage, but there are plans to
    add CFI validation for C files and CFI generation for asm files.

    For each function, it recursively follows all possible code paths
    and validates the correct frame pointer state at each instruction.

    It also follows code paths involving special sections, like
    .altinstructions, __jump_table, and __ex_table, which can add
    alternative execution paths to a given instruction (or set of
    instructions).  Similarly, it knows how to follow switch statements,
    for which gcc sometimes uses jump tables."

  When this new kernel option is enabled (it's disabled by default), the
  tool, if it finds any suspicious assembly code pattern, outputs
  warnings in compiler warning format:

    warning: objtool: rtlwifi_rate_mapping()+0x2e7: frame pointer state mismatch
    warning: objtool: cik_tiling_mode_table_init()+0x6ce: call without frame pointer save/setup
    warning: objtool:__schedule()+0x3c0: duplicate frame pointer save
    warning: objtool:__schedule()+0x3fd: sibling call from callable instruction with changed frame pointer

  ... so that scripts that pick up compiler warnings will notice them.
  All known warnings triggered by the tool are fixed by the tree, most
  of the commits in fact prepare the kernel to be warning-free.  Most of
  them are bugfixes or cleanups that stand on their own, but there are
  also some annotations of 'special' stack frames for justified cases
  such entries to JIT-ed code (BPF) or really special boot time code.

  There are two other long-term motivations behind this tool as well:

   - To improve the quality and reliability of kernel stack frames, so
     that they can be used for optimized live patching.

   - To create independent infrastructure to check the correctness of
     CFI stack frames at build time.  CFI debuginfo is notoriously
     unreliable and we cannot use it in the kernel as-is without extra
     checking done both on the kernel side and on the build side.

  The quality of kernel stack frames matters to debuggability as well,
  so IMO we can merge this without having to consider the live patching
  or CFI debuginfo angle"

The crypto code has several callable non-leaf functions which don't
honor CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER, which can result in bad stack traces.

Create stack frames for them when CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is enabled.
