crypto: acomp - add driver-side scomp interface

2016-10-25T03:08:31+00:00

Add a synchronous back-end (scomp) to acomp. This allows to easily
expose the already present compression algorithms in LKCF via acomp.

crypto: acomp - add asynchronous compression api

2016-10-25T03:08:30+00:00

Add acomp, an asynchronous compression api that uses scatterlist
buffers.

crypto: skcipher - Remove top-level givcipher interface

2016-07-18T09:35:46+00:00

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.

crypto: skcipher - Add low-level skcipher interface

2016-07-18T09:35:36+00:00

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.

crypto: kpp - Key-agreement Protocol Primitives API (KPP)

2016-06-23T10:29:56+00:00

Add key-agreement protocol primitives (kpp) API which allows to
implement primitives required by protocols such as DH and ECDH.
The API is composed mainly by the following functions
 * set_secret() - It allows the user to set his secret, also
   referred to as his private key, along with the parameters
   known to both parties involved in the key-agreement session.
 * generate_public_key() - It generates the public key to be sent to
   the other counterpart involved in the key-agreement session. The
   function has to be called after set_params() and set_secret()
 * generate_secret() - It generates the shared secret for the session

Other functions such as init() and exit() are provided for allowing
cryptographic hardware to be inizialized properly before use
