[PATCH 2/2] crypto: make the sha1 library optional

From: Eric Biggers
Date: Sat Jul 09 2022 - 17:21:33 EST


From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx>

Since the Linux RNG no longer uses sha1_transform(), the SHA-1 library
is no longer needed unconditionally. Make it possible to build the
Linux kernel without the SHA-1 library by putting it behind a kconfig
option, and selecting this new option from the kconfig options that gate
the remaining users: CRYPTO_SHA1 for crypto/sha1_generic.c, BPF for
kernel/bpf/core.c, and IPV6 for net/ipv6/addrconf.c.

Unfortunately, since BPF is selected by NET, for now this can only make
a difference for kernels built without networking support.
