* crypto: x86 - remove SHA multibuffer routines and mcryptdArd Biesheuvel2018-09-041-304/+0Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As it turns out, the AVX2 multibuffer SHA routines are currently broken [0], in a way that would have likely been noticed if this code were in wide use. Since the code is too complicated to be maintained by anyone except the original authors, and since the performance benefits for real-world use cases are debatable to begin with, it is better to drop it entirely for the moment.

* crypto: sha256-mb - Algorithm data structuresMegha Dey2016-06-271-0/+304
This patch introduces the data structures and prototypes of functions needed for computing SHA256 hash using multi-buffer. Included are the structures of the multi-buffer SHA256 job, job scheduler in C and x86 assembly.
