2022-06-10	crypto: x86/polyval - Add PCLMULQDQ accelerated implementation of POLYVAL	Nathan Huckleberry	1	-0/+40
	Add hardware accelerated version of POLYVAL for x86-64 CPUs with PCLMULQDQ support. This implementation is accelerated using PCLMULQDQ instructions to perform the finite field computations. For added efficiency, 8 blocks of the message are processed simultaneously by precomputing the first 8 powers of the key. Schoolbook multiplication is used instead of Karatsuba multiplication because it was found to be slightly faster on x86-64 machines. Montgomery reduction must be used instead of Barrett reduction due to the difference in modulus between POLYVAL's field and other finite fields. More information on POLYVAL can be found in the HCTR2 paper: "Length-preserving encryption with HCTR2": https://eprint.iacr.org/2021/1441.pdf Signed-off-by: Nathan Huckleberry <nhuck@google.com> Reviewed-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2022-06-10	crypto: polyval - Add POLYVAL support	Nathan Huckleberry	1	-0/+205
	Add support for POLYVAL, an ε-Δ-universal hash function similar to GHASH. This patch only uses POLYVAL as a component to implement HCTR2 mode. It should be noted that POLYVAL was originally specified for use in AES-GCM-SIV (RFC 8452), but the kernel does not currently support this mode. POLYVAL is implemented as an shash algorithm. The implementation is modified from ghash-generic.c.
