Invoking a possibly async. crypto op and waiting for completion
while correctly handling backlog processing is a common task
in the crypto API implementation and outside users of it.
This patch adds a generic implementation for doing so in
preparation for using it across the board instead of hand
rolled versions.

With the new explicit IV generators, we may now exceed the 64-byte
length limit on the algorithm name, e.g., with
echainiv(authencesn(hmac(sha256-generic),cbc(des3_ede-generic)))
This patch extends the length limit to 128 bytes.

Add a synchronous back-end (scomp) to acomp. This allows to easily

This patch removes the old crypto_grab_skcipher helper and replaces
it with crypto_grab_skcipher2.
As this is the final entry point into givcipher this patch also
removes all traces of the top-level givcipher interface, including
all implicit IV generators such as chainiv.
The bottom-level givcipher interface remains until the drivers
using it are converted.

This patch allows skcipher algorithms and instances to be created
and registered with the crypto API. They are accessible through
the top-level skcipher interface, along with ablkcipher/blkcipher
algorithms and instances.
This patch also introduces a new parameter called chunk size
which is meant for ciphers such as CTR and CTS which ostensibly
can handle arbitrary lengths, but still behave like block ciphers
in that you can only process a partial block at the very end.
For these ciphers the block size will continue to be set to 1
as it is now while the chunk size will be set to the underlying
block size.

Add key-agreement protocol primitives (kpp) API which allows to
implement primitives required by protocols such as DH and ECDH.
The API is composed mainly by the following functions
* set_secret() - It allows the user to set his secret, also
referred to as his private key, along with the parameters
known to both parties involved in the key-agreement session.
* generate_public_key() - It generates the public key to be sent to
the other counterpart involved in the key-agreement session. The
function has to be called after set_params() and set_secret()
* generate_secret() - It generates the shared secret for the session
Other functions such as init() and exit() are provided for allowing
cryptographic hardware to be inizialized properly before use

Now that the AEAD conversion is complete we can rip out the old
AEAD interafce and associated code.
Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
As the AEAD conversion is still ongoing, we do not yet wish to
export legacy AEAD implementations to user-space, as their calling
convention will change.
This patch actually disables all AEAD algorithms because some of
them (e.g., cryptd) will need to be modified to propagate this flag.
Subsequent patches will reenable them on an individual basis.

The struct crypto_alg is embedded into various type-specific structs
such as aead_alg. This is then used as part of instances such as
struct aead_instance. It is also embedded into the generic struct
crypto_instance. In order to ensure that struct aead_instance can
be converted to struct crypto_instance when necessary, we need to
ensure that crypto_alg is aligned properly.
This patch adds an alignment attribute to struct crypto_alg to
ensure this.

This patch is the first step in the introduction of a new AEAD
alg type. Unlike normal conversions this patch only renames the
existing aead_alg structure because there are external references
to it.
Those references will be removed after this patch.

This patch converts the top-level aead interface to the new style.
All user-level AEAD interface code have been moved into crypto/aead.h.
The allocation/free functions have switched over to the new way of
allocating tfms.
This patch also removes the double indrection on setkey so the
indirection now exists only at the alg level.
Apart from these there are no user-visible changes.

This patch converts the low-level crypto_rng interface to the
"new" style.
This allows existing implementations to be converted over one-

interface.

This patch converts the top-level crypto_rng to the "new" style.
It was the last algorithm type added before we switched over
to the new way of doing things exemplified by shash.
All users will automatically switch over to the new interface.
Note that this patch does not touch the low-level interface to
rng implementations.
