      crypto: aes-ni - Add support for more modes · 2cf4ac8b
      Huang Ying 提交于
      Because kernel_fpu_begin() and kernel_fpu_end() operations are too
      slow, the performance gain of general mode implementation + aes-aesni
      is almost all compensated.
      
      The AES-NI support for more modes are implemented as follow:
      
      - Add a new AES algorithm implementation named __aes-aesni without
        kernel_fpu_begin/end()
      
      - Use fpu(<mode>(AES)) to provide kenrel_fpu_begin/end() invoking
      
      - Add <mode>(AES) ablkcipher, which uses cryptd(fpu(<mode>(AES))) to
        defer cryption to cryptd context in soft_irq context.
      
      Now the ctr, lrw, pcbc and xts support are added.
      
      Performance testing based on dm-crypt shows that cryption time can be
      reduced to 50% of general mode implementation + aes-aesni implementation.
