2015-02-20crypto: add missing crypto module aliasesMathias Krause
commit 3e14dcf7cb80b34a1f38b55bc96f02d23fdaaaaf upstream. Commit 5d26a105b5a7 ("crypto: prefix module autoloading with "crypto-"") changed the automatic module loading when requesting crypto algorithms to prefix all module requests with "crypto-". This requires all crypto modules to have a crypto specific module alias even if their file name would otherwise match the requested crypto algorithm. Even though commit 5d26a105b5a7 added those aliases for a vast amount of modules, it was missing a few. Add the required MODULE_ALIAS_CRYPTO annotations to those files to make them get loaded automatically, again. This fixes, e.g., requesting 'ecb(blowfish-generic)', which used to work with kernels v3.18 and below. Also change MODULE_ALIAS() lines to MODULE_ALIAS_CRYPTO(). The former won't work for crypto modules any more.

2015-02-20crypto: prefix module autoloading with "crypto-"Kees Cook
commit 5d26a105b5a73e5635eae0629b42fa0a90e07b7b upstream. This prefixes all crypto module loading with "crypto-" so we never run the risk of exposing module auto-loading to userspace via a crypto API, as demonstrated by Mathias Krause: https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/3/4/70 Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> [bwh: Backported to 3.2: - Adjust filenames - Drop changes to algorithms and drivers we don't have - Add aliases to generic C implementations that didn't need them before] Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>
2008-08-29crypto: rng - RNG interface and implementationNeil Horman
This patch adds a random number generator interface as well as a cryptographic pseudo-random number generator based on AES. It is meant to be used in cases where a deterministic CPRNG is required. One of the first applications will be as an input in the IPsec IV generation process. Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
