2019-11-17	crypto: lib/curve25519 - work around Clang stack spilling issue	Ard Biesheuvel	1	-5/+5
	Arnd reports that the 32-bit generic library code for Curve25119 ends up using an excessive amount of stack space when built with Clang: lib/crypto/curve25519-fiat32.c:756:6: error: stack frame size of 1384 bytes in function 'curve25519_generic' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than=] Let's give some hints to the compiler regarding which routines should not be inlined, to prevent it from running out of registers and spilling to the stack. The resulting code performs identically under both GCC and Clang, and makes the warning go away.

2019-11-17	crypto: curve25519 - generic C library implementations	Jason A. Donenfeld	1	-0/+864
	This contains two formally verified C implementations of the Curve25519 scalar multiplication function, one for 32-bit systems, and one for 64-bit systems whose compiler supports efficient 128-bit integer types. Not only are these implementations formally verified, but they are also the fastest available C implementations. They have been modified to be friendly to kernel space and to be generally less horrendous looking, but still an effort has been made to retain their formally verified characteristic, and so the C might look slightly unidiomatic. The 64-bit version comes from HACL*: https://github.com/project-everest/hacl-star The 32-bit version comes from Fiat: https://github.com/mit-plv/fiat-crypto Information: https://cr.yp.to/ecdh.html Signed-off-by: Jason A.
