2011-09-22crypto: blowfish - add x86_64 assembly implementationJussi Kivilinna
Patch adds x86_64 assembly implementation of blowfish. Two set of assembler functions are provided. First set is regular 'one-block at time' encrypt/decrypt functions. Second is 'four-block at time' functions that gain performance increase on out-of-order CPUs. Performance of 4-way functions should be equal to 1-way functions with in-order CPUs. Summary of the tcrypt benchmarks: Blowfish assembler vs blowfish C (256bit 8kb block ECB) encrypt: 2.2x speed decrypt: 2.3x speed Blowfish assembler vs blowfish C (256bit 8kb block CBC) encrypt: 1.12x speed decrypt: 2.5x speed Blowfish assembler vs blowfish C (256bit 8kb block CTR) encrypt: 2.5x speed Full output: http://koti.mbnet.fi/axh/kernel/crypto/tcrypt-speed-blowfish-asm-x86_64.txt http://koti.mbnet.fi/axh/kernel/crypto/tcrypt-speed-blowfish-c-x86_64.txt Tests were run on: vendor_id : AuthenticAMD cpu family : 16 model : 10 model name : AMD Phenom(tm) II X6 1055T Processor stepping : 0 Signed-off-by: Jussi Kivilinna <jussi.kivilinna@mbnet.fi> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

2011-08-10crypto: sha1 - SSSE3 based SHA1 implementation for x86-64Mathias Krause
This is an assembler implementation of the SHA1 algorithm using the Supplemental SSE3 (SSSE3) instructions or, when available, the Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX). Testing with the tcrypt module shows the raw hash performance is up to 2.3 times faster than the C implementation, using 8k data blocks on a Core 2 Duo T5500. For the smalest data set (16 byte) it is still 25% faster. Since this implementation uses SSE/YMM registers it cannot safely be used in every situation, e.g. while an IRQ interrupts a kernel thread. The implementation falls back to the generic SHA1 variant, if using the SSE/YMM registers is not possible. With this algorithm I was able to increase the throughput of a single IPsec link from 344 Mbit/s to 464 Mbit/s on a Core 2 Quad CPU using the SSSE3 variant -- a speedup of +34.8%. Saving and restoring SSE/YMM state might make the actual throughput fluctuate when there are FPU intensive userland applications running. For example, meassuring the performance using iperf2 directly on the machine under test gives wobbling numbers because iperf2 uses the FPU for each packet to check if the reporting interval has expired (in the above test I got min/max/avg: 402/484/464 MBit/s). Using this algorithm on a IPsec gateway gives much more reasonable and stable numbers, albeit not as high as in the directly connected case. Here is the result from an RFC 2544 test run with a EXFO Packet Blazer FTB-8510: frame size sha1-generic sha1-ssse3 delta 64 byte 37.5 MBit/s 37.5 MBit/s 0.0% 128 byte 56.3 MBit/s 62.5 MBit/s +11.0% 256 byte 87.5 MBit/s 100.0 MBit/s +14.3% 512 byte 131.3 MBit/s 150.0 MBit/s +14.2% 1024 byte 162.5 MBit/s 193.8 MBit/s +19.3% 1280 byte 175.0 MBit/s 212.5 MBit/s +21.4% 1420 byte 175.0 MBit/s 218.7 MBit/s +25.0% 1518 byte 150.0 MBit/s 181.2 MBit/s +20.8% The throughput for the largest frame size is lower than for the previous size because the IP packets need to be fragmented in this case to make there way through the IPsec tunnel.

Loading fpu without aesni-intel does nothing. Loading aesni-intel without fpu causes modes like xts to fail. (Unloading aesni-intel will restore those modes.) One solution would be to make aesni-intel depend on fpu, but it seems cleaner to just combine the modules.

2010-11-27crypto: aesni-intel - Ported implementation to x86-32Mathias Krause
The AES-NI instructions are also available in legacy mode so the 32-bit architecture may profit from those, too. To illustrate the performance gain here's a short summary of a dm-crypt speed test on a Core i7 M620 running at 2.67GHz comparing both assembler implementations: x86: i568 aes-ni delta ECB, 256 bit: 93.8 MB/s 123.3 MB/s +31.4% CBC, 256 bit: 84.8 MB/s 262.3 MB/s +209.3% LRW, 256 bit: 108.6 MB/s 222.1 MB/s +104.5% XTS, 256 bit: 105.0 MB/s 205.5 MB/s +95.7% Additionally, due to some minor optimizations, the 64-bit version also got a minor performance gain as seen below: x86-64: old impl. new impl. delta ECB, 256 bit: 121.1 MB/s 123.0 MB/s +1.5% CBC, 256 bit: 285.3 MB/s 290.8 MB/s +1.9% LRW, 256 bit: 263.7 MB/s 265.3 MB/s +0.6% XTS, 256 bit: 251.1 MB/s 255.3 MB/s +1.7% Signed-off-by: Mathias Krause <minipli@googlemail.com> Reviewed-by: Huang Ying <ying.huang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2010-11-26crypto: algif_skcipher - User-space interface for skcipher operationsHerbert Xu
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.

2010-11-19crypto: algif_hash - User-space interface for hash operationsHerbert Xu
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.

2010-11-19crypto: af_alg - User-space interface for Crypto APIHerbert Xu
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. Thakns to Miloslav Trmac for reviewing this and contributing fixes and improvements.

More information about PCLMULQDQ can be found at: http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/carry-less-multiplication-and-its-usage-for-computing-the-gcm-mode/ Because PCLMULQDQ changes XMM state, its usage must be enclosed with kernel_fpu_begin/end, which can be used only in process context, the acceleration is implemented as crypto_ahash.

2009-08-20crypto: fips - Depend on ansi_cprngNeil Horman
What about something like this? It defaults the CPRNG to m and makes FIPS dependent on the CPRNG. That way you get a module build by default, but you can change it to y manually during config and still satisfy the dependency, and if you select N it disables FIPS as well. I rather like that better than making FIPS a tristate. I just tested it out here and it seems to work well.

2009-06-02crypto: aes-ni - Add support for more modesHuang Ying
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.

2009-03-04crypto: compress - Add pcomp interfaceGeert Uytterhoeven
The current "comp" crypto interface supports one-shot (de)compression only, i.e. the whole data buffer to be (de)compressed must be passed at once, and the whole (de)compressed data buffer will be received at once. In several use-cases (e.g. compressed file systems that store files in big compressed blocks), this workflow is not suitable. Furthermore, the "comp" type doesn't provide for the configuration of (de)compression parameters, and always allocates workspace memory for both compression and decompression, which may waste memory. To solve this, add a "pcomp" partial (de)compression interface that provides the following operations: - crypto_compress_{init,update,final}() for compression, - crypto_decompress_{init,update,final}() for decompression, - crypto_{,de}compress_setup(), to configure (de)compression parameters (incl. allocating workspace memory). The (de)compression methods take a struct comp_request, which was mimicked after the z_stream object in zlib, and contains buffer pointer and length pairs for input and output. The setup methods take an opaque parameter pointer and length pair. Parameters are supposed to be encoded using netlink attributes, whose meanings depend on the actual (name of the) (de)compression algorithm.

2009-02-19crypto: cryptd - Per-CPU thread implementation based on kcrypto_wqHuang Ying
Original cryptd thread implementation has scalability issue, this patch solve the issue with a per-CPU thread implementation. struct cryptd_queue is defined to be a per-CPU queue, which holds one struct cryptd_cpu_queue for each CPU. In struct cryptd_cpu_queue, a struct crypto_queue holds all requests for the CPU, a struct work_struct is used to run all requests for the CPU. Testing based on dm-crypt on an Intel Core 2 E6400 (two cores) machine shows 19.2% performance gain. The testing script is as follow: -------------------- script begin --------------------------- #!/bin/sh dmc_create() { # Create a crypt device using dmsetup dmsetup create $2 --table "0 `blockdev --getsize $1` crypt cbc(aes-asm)?cryptd?plain:plain babebabebabebabebabebabebabebabe 0 $1 0" } dmsetup remove crypt0 dmsetup remove crypt1 dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ram0 bs=1M count=4 >& /dev/null dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ram1 bs=1M count=4 >& /dev/null dmc_create /dev/ram0 crypt0 dmc_create /dev/ram1 crypt1 cat >tr.sh <<EOF #!/bin/sh for n in \$(seq 10); do dd if=/dev/dm-0 of=/dev/null >& /dev/null & dd if=/dev/dm-1 of=/dev/null >& /dev/null & done wait EOF for n in $(seq 10); do /usr/bin/time sh tr.sh done rm tr.sh -------------------- script end --------------------------- The separator of dm-crypt parameter is changed from "-" to "?", because "-" is used in some cipher driver name too, and cryptds need to specify cipher driver name instead of cipher name.

2009-02-19crypto: api - Use dedicated workqueue for crypto subsystemHuang Ying
Use dedicated workqueue for crypto subsystem A dedicated workqueue named kcrypto_wq is created to be used by crypto subsystem. The system shared keventd_wq is not suitable for encryption/decryption, because of potential starvation problem.

2009-02-18crypto: aes-ni - Add support to Intel AES-NI instructions for x86_64 platformHuang Ying
Intel AES-NI is a new set of Single Instruction Multiple Data (SIMD) instructions that are going to be introduced in the next generation of Intel processor, as of 2009. These instructions enable fast and secure data encryption and decryption, using the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), defined by FIPS Publication number 197. The architecture introduces six instructions that offer full hardware support for AES. Four of them support high performance data encryption and decryption, and the other two instructions support the AES key expansion procedure. The white paper can be downloaded from: http://softwarecommunity.intel.com/isn/downloads/intelavx/AES-Instructions-Set_WP.pdf AES may be used in soft_irq context, but MMX/SSE context can not be touched safely in soft_irq context. So in_interrupt() is checked, if in IRQ or soft_irq context, the general x86_64 implementation are used instead.
