[PATCH 2/6] MODSIGN: In-kernel crypto extensions

From: David Howells
Date: Wed Feb 14 2007 - 14:10:54 EST


Two extensions are added:

(1) Support for SHA1 digestion of in-kernel buffers directly without the use
of scatter-gather lists.

(2) Allocation of crypto algorithm instances without resort to fallback module
loading.

SHA1 is used by module signature checking, and so must not itself require
loading as a module when the module signature checking is enabled.
