[PATCH 1/2] crypto: x86/aes-ni-xts - use direct calls to and 4-way stride

From: Ard Biesheuvel
Date: Tue Dec 22 2020 - 11:09:14 EST


The XTS asm helper arrangement is a bit odd: the 8-way stride helper
consists of back-to-back calls to the 4-way core transforms, which
are called indirectly, based on a boolean that indicates whether we
are performing encryption or decryption.

Given how costly indirect calls are on x86, let's switch to direct
calls, and given how the 8-way stride doesn't really add anything
substantial, use a 4-way stride instead, and make the asm core
routine deal with any multiple of 4 blocks. Since 512 byte sectors
or 4 KB blocks are the typical quantities XTS operates on, increase
the stride exported to the glue helper to 512 bytes as well.

As a result, the number of indirect calls is reduced from 3 per 64 bytes
of in/output to 1 per 512 bytes of in/output, which produces a 65% speedup
when operating on 1 KB blocks (measured on a Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8650U CPU)
