[PATCH 0/7] crypto: aesni: provide generic gcm(aes)
From: Sabrina Dubroca
Date: Fri Apr 28 2017 - 12:12:56 EST
The current aesni AES-GCM implementation only offers support for
rfc4106(gcm(aes)). This makes some things a little bit simpler
(handling of associated data and authentication tag), but it means
that non-IPsec users of gcm(aes) have to rely on
gcm_base(ctr-aes-aesni,ghash-clmulni), which is much slower.
This patchset adds handling of all valid authentication tag lengths
and of any associated data length to the assembly code, and exposes a
generic gcm(aes) AEAD algorithm to the crypto API.
With these patches, performance of MACsec on a single core increases
by 40% (from 4.5Gbps to around 6.3Gbps).

crypto: aesni: make AVX2 AES-GCM work with any aadlen
crypto: aesni: make AVX2 AES-GCM work with all valid auth_tag_len
crypto: aesni: add generic gcm(aes)
