2016-07-19crypto: skcipher - Add comment for skcipher_alg->baseHerbert Xu1-0/+1
This patch adds a missing comment for the base parameter in struct skcipher_alg. Reported-by: kbuild test robot <fengguang.wu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2016-07-18crypto: skcipher - Remove top-level givcipher interfaceHerbert Xu1-76/+0
This patch removes the old crypto_grab_skcipher helper and replaces it with crypto_grab_skcipher2. As this is the final entry point into givcipher this patch also removes all traces of the top-level givcipher interface, including all implicit IV generators such as chainiv. The bottom-level givcipher interface remains until the drivers using it are converted. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2016-07-18crypto: skcipher - Add low-level skcipher interfaceHerbert Xu1-0/+130
This patch allows skcipher algorithms and instances to be created and registered with the crypto API. They are accessible through the top-level skcipher interface, along with ablkcipher/blkcipher algorithms and instances. This patch also introduces a new parameter called chunk size which is meant for ciphers such as CTR and CTS which ostensibly can handle arbitrary lengths, but still behave like block ciphers in that you can only process a partial block at the very end. For these ciphers the block size will continue to be set to 1 as it is now while the chunk size will be set to the underlying block size. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

2016-02-06crypto: skcipher - Fix driver name helperHerbert Xu1-1/+1
The helper crypto_skcipher_driver_name was returning the alg name and not the driver name. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2016-01-27crypto: skcipher - Add helper to retrieve driver nameHerbert Xu1-0/+6
This patch adds the helper crypto_skcipher_driver_name which returns the driver name of the alg object for a given tfm. This is needed by ecryptfs. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2016-01-25crypto: skcipher - Add helper to zero stack requestHerbert Xu1-0/+7
As the size of an skcipher_request is variable, it's awkward to zero it explicitly. This patch adds a helper to do that which should be used when it is created on the stack. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2016-01-25crypto: skcipher - Add default key size helperHerbert Xu1-3/+8
While converting ecryptfs over to skcipher I found that it needs to pick a default key size if one isn't given. Rather than having it poke into the guts of the algorithm to get max_keysize, let's provide a helper that is meant to give a sane default (just in case we ever get an algorithm that has no maximum key size).

2016-01-18crypto: skcipher - Add crypto_skcipher_has_setkeyHerbert Xu1-0/+7
This patch adds a way for skcipher users to determine whether a key is required by a transform. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2015-08-21crypto: skcipher - Add top-level skcipher interfaceHerbert Xu1-1/+390
This patch introduces the crypto skcipher interface which aims to replace both blkcipher and ablkcipher. It's very similar to the existing ablkcipher interface. The main difference is the removal of the givcrypt interface. In order to make the transition easier for blkcipher users, there is a helper SKCIPHER_REQUEST_ON_STACK which can be used to place a request on the stack for synchronous transforms.

2014-08-01crypto: Resolve shadow warningsMark Rustad1-2/+2
Change formal parameters to not clash with global names to eliminate many W=2 warnings. Signed-off-by: Mark Rustad <mark.d.rustad@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2008-01-11[CRYPTO] skcipher: Add top-level givencrypt/givdecrypt callsHerbert Xu1-0/+72
This patch finally makes the givencrypt/givdecrypt operations available to users by adding crypto_skcipher_givencrypt and crypto_skcipher_givdecrypt. A suite of helpers to allocate and fill in the request is also available. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2008-01-11[CRYPTO] skcipher: Add givcrypt operations and givcipher typeHerbert Xu1-0/+38
Different block cipher modes have different requirements for intialisation vectors. For example, CBC can use a simple randomly generated IV while modes such as CTR must use an IV generation mechanisms that give a stronger guarantee on the lack of collisions. Furthermore, disk encryption modes have their own IV generation algorithms. Up until now IV generation has been left to the users of the symmetric key cipher API. This is inconvenient as the number of block cipher modes increase because the user needs to be aware of which mode is supposed to be paired with which IV generation algorithm. Therefore it makes sense to integrate the IV generation into the crypto API. This patch takes the first step in that direction by creating two new ablkcipher operations, givencrypt and givdecrypt that generates an IV before performing the actual encryption or decryption. The operations are currently not exposed to the user. That will be done once the underlying functionality has actually been implemented. It also creates the underlying givcipher type. Algorithms that directly generate IVs would use it instead of ablkcipher. All other algorithms (including all existing ones) would generate a givcipher algorithm upon registration. This givcipher algorithm will be constructed from the geniv string that's stored in every algorithm. That string will locate a template which is instantiated by the blkcipher/ablkcipher algorithm in question to give a givcipher algorithm. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
