crypto: api - Call type show function before legacy for proc

2008-12-25T00:01:32+00:00

This patch makes /proc/crypto call the type-specific show function
if one is present before calling the legacy show functions for
cipher/digest/compress.  This allows us to reuse the type values
for those legacy types.  In particular, hash and digest will share
one type value while shash is phased in as the default hash type.

crypto: api - Add fips_enable flag

2008-08-29T05:50:02+00:00

Add the ability to turn FIPS-compliant mode on or off at boot

In order to be FIPS compliant, several check may need to be preformed that may
be construed as unusefull in a non-compliant mode.  This patch allows us to set
a kernel flag incating that we are running in a fips-compliant mode from boot
up.  It also exports that mode information to user space via a sysctl
(/proc/sys/crypto/fips_enabled).

Tested successfully by me.

crypto: api - Use test infrastructure

2008-08-29T05:49:57+00:00

This patch makes use of the new testing infrastructure by requiring
algorithms to pass a run-time test before they're made available to
users.

crypto: api - Display larval objects properly

2008-08-29T05:48:56+00:00

Rather than displaying larval objects as real objects, this patch
makes them show up under /proc/crypto as of type larval.

Make crypto API use seq_list_xxx helpers

Simple and stupid - just use the same code from another place in the kernel.

[PATCH] mark struct file_operations const 3

2007-02-12T17:48:45+00:00

Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const".  Marking them const
moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential
dirty data.  In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to
these shared resources.

[CRYPTO] api: Added crypto_type support

2006-09-21T01:41:51+00:00

This patch adds the crypto_type structure which will be used for all new
crypto algorithm types, beginning with block ciphers.

The primary purpose of this abstraction is to allow different crypto_type
objects for crypto algorithms of the same type, in particular, there will
be a different crypto_type objects for asynchronous algorithms.

[CRYPTO] api: Split out low-level API

2006-09-21T01:16:30+00:00

The crypto API is made up of the part facing users such as IPsec and the
low-level part which is used by cryptographic entities such as algorithms.
This patch splits out the latter so that the two APIs are more clearly
delineated.  As a bonus the low-level API can now be modularised if all
algorithms are built as modules.
