      crypto: arm64/sha256-neon - play nice with CONFIG_PREEMPT kernels · 1a3713c7
      Ard Biesheuvel authored 
      Tweak the SHA256 update routines to invoke the SHA256 block transform
block by block, to avoid excessive scheduling delays caused by the
NEON algorithm running with preemption disabled.

Also, remove a stale comment which no longer applies now that kernel
mode NEON is actually disallowed in some contexts.

      crypto: arm64/aes-blk - add 4 way interleave to CBC-MAC encrypt path · 870c163a
      Ard Biesheuvel authored 
      CBC MAC is strictly sequential, and so the current AES code simply
processes the input one block at a time. However, we are about to add
yield support, which adds a bit of overhead, and which we prefer to
align with other modes in terms of granularity (i.e., it is better to
have all routines yield every 64 bytes and not have an exception for
CBC MAC which yields every 16 bytes)

So unroll the loop by 4. We still cannot perform the AES algorithm in
parallel, but we can at least merge the loads and stores.

      crypto: arm64/aes-blk - remove configurable interleave · 55868b45
      Ard Biesheuvel authored 
      The AES block mode implementation using Crypto Extensions or plain NEON
was written before real hardware existed, and so its interleave factor
was made build time configurable (as well as an option to instantiate
all interleaved sequences inline rather than as subroutines)

We ended up using INTERLEAVE=4 with inlining disabled for both flavors
of the core AES routines, so let's stick with that, and remove the option
to configure this at build time. This makes the code easier to modify,
which is nice now that we're adding yield support.

      crypto: arm64/chacha20 - move kernel mode neon en/disable into loop · 4bf7e7a1
      Ard Biesheuvel authored 
      When kernel mode NEON was first introduced on arm64, the preserve and
restore of the userland NEON state was completely unoptimized, and
involved saving all registers on each call to kernel_neon_begin(),
and restoring them on each call to kernel_neon_end(). For this reason,
the NEON crypto code that was introduced at the time keeps the NEON
enabled throughout the execution of the crypto API methods, which may
include calls back into the crypto API that could result in memory
allocation or other actions that we should avoid when running with
preemption disabled.

Since then, we have optimized the kernel mode NEON handling, which now
restores lazily (upon return to userland), and so the preserve action
is only costly the first time it is called after entering the kernel.

So let's put the kernel_neon_begin() and kernel_neon_end() calls around
the actual invocations of the NEON crypto code, and run the remainder of
the code with kernel mode NEON disabled (and preemption enabled)
