      crypto: algif_skcipher - User-space interface for skcipher operations · 8ff59090
      Herbert Xu authored
      This patch adds the af_alg plugin for symmetric key ciphers,
      corresponding to the ablkcipher kernel operation type.
      
      Keys can optionally be set through the setsockopt interface.
      
      Once a sendmsg call occurs without MSG_MORE no further writes
      may be made to the socket until all previous data has been read.
      
      IVs and and whether encryption/decryption is performed can be
      set through the setsockopt interface or as a control message
      to sendmsg.
      
      The interface is completely synchronous, all operations are
      carried out in recvmsg(2) and will complete prior to the system
      call returning.
      
      The splice(2) interface support reading the user-space data directly
      without copying (except that the Crypto API itself may copy the data
      if alignment is off).
      
      The recvmsg(2) interface supports directly writing to user-space
      without additional copying, i.e., the kernel crypto interface will
      receive the user-space address as its output SG list.
      
      Thakns to Miloslav Trmac for reviewing this and contributing
      fixes and improvements.

      crypto: algif_hash - User-space interface for hash operations · fe869cdb
      Herbert Xu authored
      This patch adds the af_alg plugin for hash, corresponding to
      the ahash kernel operation type.
      
      Keys can optionally be set through the setsockopt interface.
      
      Each sendmsg call will finalise the hash unless sent with a MSG_MORE
      flag.
      
      Partial hash states can be cloned using accept(2).
      
      The interface is completely synchronous, all operations will
      complete prior to the system call returning.
      
      Both sendmsg(2) and splice(2) support reading the user-space
      data directly without copying (except that the Crypto API itself
      may copy the data if alignment is off).
      
      For now only the splice(2) interface supports performing digest
      instead of init/update/final.  In future the sendmsg(2) interface
      will also be modified to use digest/finup where possible so that
      hardware that cannot return a partial hash state can still benefit
      from this interface.

      crypto: af_alg - User-space interface for Crypto API · 03c8efc1
      Herbert Xu authored
      This patch creates the backbone of the user-space interface for
      the Crypto API, through a new socket family AF_ALG.
      
      Each session corresponds to one or more connections obtained from
      that socket.  The number depends on the number of inputs/outputs
      of that particular type of operation.  For most types there will
      be a s ingle connection/file descriptor that is used for both input
      and output.  AEAD is one of the few that require two inputs.
      
      Each algorithm type will provide its own implementation that plugs
      into af_alg.  They're keyed using a string such as "skcipher" or
      "hash".
      
      IOW this patch only contains the boring bits that is required
      to hold everything together.

      ext4: optimize orphan_list handling for ext4_setattr · 3d287de3
      Dmitry Monakhov authored
      Surprisingly chown() on ext4 is not SMP scalable operation. 
      Due to unconditional orphan_del(NULL, inode) in ext4_setattr()
      result in significant performance overhead because of global orphan
      mutex, especially in no-journal mode (where orphan_add() is noop).
      It is possible to skip explicit orphan_del if possible.
      Results of fchown() micro-benchmark in no-journal mode
      while (1) {
         iteration++;
         fchown(fd, uid, gid);
         fchown(fd, uid + 1, gid + 1)
      }

      ext4: move ext4_mb_{get,put}_buddy_cache_lock and make them static · eee4adc7
      Eric Sandeen authored
      These functions are only used within fs/ext4/mballoc.c, so move them
      so they are used after they are defined, and then make them be static.

      ext4: rename {ext,idx}_pblock and inline small extent functions · bf89d16f
      Theodore Ts'o authored
      Cleanup namespace leaks from fs/ext4 and the inline trivial functions
      ext4_{ext,idx}_pblock() and ext4_{ext,idx}_store_pblock() since the
      code size actually shrinks when we make these functions inline,
      they're so trivial.

      ext4: make various ext4 functions be static · 1f109d5a
      Theodore Ts'o authored
      These functions have no need to be exported beyond file context.
      
      No functions needed to be moved for this commit; just some function
      declarations changed to be static and removed from header files.
      
      (A similar patch was submitted by Eric Sandeen, but I wanted to handle
      code movement in separate patches to make sure code changes didn't
      accidentally get dropped.)
