* crypto: scompress - defer allocation of scratch buffer to first useArd Biesheuvel2017-08-031-29/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The scompress code allocates 2 x 128 KB of scratch buffers for each CPU, so that clients of the async API can use synchronous implementations even from atomic context. However, on systems such as Cavium Thunderx (which has 96 cores), this adds up to a non-negligible 24 MB. Also, 32-bit systems may prefer to use their precious vmalloc space for other things,especially since there don't appear to be any clients for the async compression API yet. So let's defer allocation of the scratch buffers until the first time we allocate an acompress cipher based on an scompress implementation.

* crypto: scompress - free partially allocated scratch buffers on failureArd Biesheuvel2017-08-031-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | When allocating the per-CPU scratch buffers, we allocate the source and destination buffers separately, but bail immediately if the second allocation fails, without freeing the first one. Fix that. Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
* crypto: scompress - don't sleep with preemption disabledArd Biesheuvel2017-08-031-3/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | Due to the use of per-CPU buffers, scomp_acomp_comp_decomp() executes with preemption disabled, and so whether the CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_MAY_SLEEP flag is set is irrelevant, since we cannot sleep anyway. So disregard the flag, and use GFP_ATOMIC unconditionally.

* crypto: Replaced gcc specific attributes with macros from compiler.hGideon Israel Dsouza2017-01-131-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Continuing from this commit: 52f5684c8e1e ("kernel: use macros from compiler.h instead of __attribute__((...))") I submitted 4 total patches. They are part of task I've taken up to increase compiler portability in the kernel. I've cleaned up the subsystems under /kernel /mm /block and /security, this patch targets /crypto. There is <linux/compiler.h> which provides macros for various gcc specific constructs. Eg: __weak for __attribute__((weak)). I've cleaned all instances of gcc specific attributes with the right macros for the crypto subsystem. I had to make one additional change into compiler-gcc.h for the case when one wants to use this: __attribute__((aligned) and not specify an alignment factor. From the gcc docs, this will result in the largest alignment for that data type on the target machine so I've named the macro __aligned_largest. Please advise if another name is more appropriate.

* crypto: acomp - add driver-side scomp interfaceGiovanni Cabiddu2016-10-251-0/+356
Add a synchronous back-end (scomp) to acomp. This allows to easily expose the already present compression algorithms in LKCF via acomp. Signed-off-by: Giovanni Cabiddu <giovanni.cabiddu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
