85c6201a80 crypto: scatterwalk - Fix scatterwalk_done() test
We are done with the scattergather entry when the walk offset goes
past sg->offset + sg->length, not when it crosses a page boundary.

There is a similarly queer test in the second half of
scatterwalk_pagedone() that probably needs some scrutiny.

4f3e797ad0 crypto: scatterwalk - Avoid flush_dcache_page on slab pages
It's illegal to call flush_dcache_page on slab pages on a number
of architectures.  So this patch avoids doing so if PageSlab is
true.

In future we can move the flush_dcache_page call to those page
cache users that actually need it.

6e050778c5 [CRYPTO] scatterwalk: Handle zero nbytes in scatterwalk_map_and_copy
It's better to return silently than crash and burn when someone feeds us
a zero length.  In particular the null digest algorithm when used as part
of authenc will do that to us.

b2ab4a57b0 [CRYPTO] scatterwalk: Restore custom sg chaining for now
Unfortunately the generic chaining hasn't been ported to all architectures
yet, and notably not s390.  So this patch restores the chainging that we've
been using previously which does work everywhere.

70dec235d8 [CRYPTO] api: Kill crypto_km_types
When scatterwalk is built as a module digest.c was broken because it
requires the crypto_km_types structure which is in scatterwalk.  This
patch removes the crypto_km_types structure by encoding the logic into
crypto_kmap_type directly.

In fact, this even saves a few bytes of code (not to mention the data
structure itself) on i386 which is about the only place where it's
needed.

5fa0fea274 [CRYPTO] scatterwalk: Add scatterwalk_map_and_copy
This patch adds the function scatterwalk_map_and_copy which reads or
writes a chunk of data from a scatterlist at a given offset.  It will
be used by authenc which would read/write the authentication data at
the end of the cipher/plain text.

4ee531a3e6 [CRYPTO] api: Use the right value when advancing scatterwalk_copychunks

len_this_page and not nbytes.  The latter is the total length.

f70ee5ec8f [CRYPTO] api: scatterwalk_copychunks() fails to advance through scatterlist
In the loop in scatterwalk_copychunks(), if walk->offset is zero,
then scatterwalk_pagedone rounds that up to the nearest page boundary:

		walk->offset += PAGE_SIZE - 1;
		walk->offset &= PAGE_MASK;

which is a no-op in this case, so we don't advance to the next element
of the scatterlist array:

		if (walk->offset >= walk->sg->offset + walk->sg->length)
			scatterwalk_start(walk, sg_next(walk->sg));

and we end up copying the same data twice.

It appears that other callers of scatterwalk_{page}done first advance
walk->offset, so I believe that's the correct thing to do here.

This caused a bug in NFS when run with krb5p security, which would
cause some writes to fail with permissions errors--for example, writes
of less than 8 bytes (the des blocksize) at the start of a file.

A git-bisect shows the bug was originally introduced by
5c64097aa0, first in 2.6.19-rc1.

5c64097aa0 [CRYPTO] scatterwalk: Prepare for block ciphers
This patch prepares the scatterwalk code for use by the new block cipher
type.

Firstly it halves the size of scatter_walk on 32-bit platforms.  This
is important as we allocate at least two of these objects on the stack
for each block cipher operation.

It also exports the symbols since the block cipher code can be built as
a module.

Finally there is a hack in scatterwalk_unmap that relies on progress
being made.  Unfortunately, for hardware crypto we can't guarantee
progress to be made since the hardware can fail.

So this also gets rid of the hack by not advancing the address returned
by scatterwalk_map.

c774e93e21 [CRYPTO] Add plumbing for multi-block operations
The VIA Padlock device is able to perform much better when multiple
blocks are fed to it at once.  As this device offers an exceptional
throughput rate it is worthwhile to optimise the infrastructure
specifically for it.

We shift the existing page-sized fast path down to the CBC/ECB functions.
We can then replace the CBC/ECB functions with functions provided by the
underlying algorithm that performs the multi-block operations.

As a side-effect this improves the performance of large cipher operations
for all existing algorithm implementations.  I've measured the gain to be
around 5% for 3DES and 15% for AES.

1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
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!
