2012-06-14crypto: arc4 - improve performance by using u32 for ctx and variablesJussi Kivilinna
This patch changes u8 in struct arc4_ctx and variables to u32 (as AMD seems to have problem with u8 array). Below are tcrypt results of old 1-byte block cipher versus ecb(arc4) with u8 and ecb(arc4) with u32. tcrypt results, x86-64 (speed ratios: new-u32/old, new-u8/old): u32 u8 AMD Phenom II : x3.6 x2.7 Intel Core 2 : x2.0 x1.9 tcrypt results, i386 (speed ratios: new-u32/old, new-u8/old): u32 u8 Intel Atom N260 : x1.5 x1.4 Cc: Jon Oberheide <jon@oberheide.org> Signed-off-by: Jussi Kivilinna <jussi.kivilinna@mbnet.fi> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2012-06-14crypto: arc4 - improve performance by adding ecb(arc4)Jussi Kivilinna
Currently arc4.c provides simple one-byte blocksize cipher which is wrapped by ecb() module, giving function call overhead on every encrypted byte. This patch adds ecb(arc4) directly into arc4.c for higher performance. tcrypt results (speed ratios: new/old): AMD Phenom II, x86-64 : x2.7 Intel Core 2, x86-64 : x1.9 Intel Atom N260, i386 : x1.4 Cc: Jon Oberheide <jon@oberheide.org> Signed-off-by: Jussi Kivilinna <jussi.kivilinna@mbnet.fi> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

2006-09-21[CRYPTO] api: Get rid of flags argument to setkeyHerbert Xu
Now that the tfm is passed directly to setkey instead of the ctx, we no longer need to pass the &tfm->crt_flags pointer. This patch also gets rid of a few unnecessary checks on the key length for ciphers as the cipher layer guarantees that the key length is within the bounds specified by the algorithm. Rather than testing dia_setkey every time, this patch does it only once during crypto_alloc_tfm. The redundant check from crypto_digest_setkey is also removed.

2006-06-26[CRYPTO] all: Pass tfm instead of ctx to algorithmsHerbert Xu
Up until now algorithms have been happy to get a context pointer since they know everything that's in the tfm already (e.g., alignment, block size). However, once we have parameterised algorithms, such information will be specific to each tfm. So the algorithm API needs to be changed to pass the tfm structure instead of the context pointer. This patch is basically a text substitution. The only tricky bit is the assembly routines that need to get the context pointer offset through asm-offsets.h.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
