percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -&gt; slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

This patch adds a mask parameter to complement the existing type
parameter.  This is useful when instantiating algorithms that
require a mask other than the default, e.g., ahash algorithms.

This adds the 'alg' module parameter to be able to test an
algorithm by name. If the algorithm type is not ad-hoc
clear for a algorithm (e.g. pcrypt, cryptd) it is possilbe
to set the algorithm type with the 'type' module parameter.

<title>crypto: tcrypt - Do not exit on success in fips mode</title>

<id>4e033a6bc70f094d36128c328f6ca725c6ca4b4c</id>
<content type='text'>
At present, the tcrypt module always exits with an -EAGAIN upon
successfully completing all the tests its been asked to run. In fips
mode, integrity checking is done by running all self-tests from the
initrd, and its much simpler to check the ret from modprobe for
success than to scrape dmesg and/or /proc/crypto. Simply stay
loaded, giving modprobe a retval of 0, if self-tests all pass and
we're in fips mode.

A side-effect of tracking success/failure for fips mode is that in
non-fips mode, self-test failures will return the actual failure
return codes, rather than always returning -EAGAIN, which seems more
correct anyway.

The tcrypt_test() portion of the patch is dependent on my earlier
pair of patches that skip non-fips algs in fips mode, at least to
achieve the fully intended behavior.

Nb: testing this patch against the cryptodev tree revealed a test
failure for sha384, which I have yet to look into...

Successfully tested against both the cryptodev-2.6 tree and a Red
