PicoXcell has had nothing but treewide cleanups for at least the last 8
years and no signs of activity. The most recent activity is a yocto vendor
kernel based on v3.0 in 2015.

<title>crypto: sha - split sha.h into sha1.h and sha2.h</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a24d22b225ce158651378869a6b88105c4bdb887</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently &lt;crypto/sha.h&gt; contains declarations for both SHA-1 and SHA-2,
and &lt;crypto/sha3.h&gt; contains declarations for SHA-3.

This organization is inconsistent, but more importantly SHA-1 is no
longer considered to be cryptographically secure.  So to the extent
possible, SHA-1 shouldn't be grouped together with any of the other SHA
versions, and usage of it should be phased out.

Therefore, split &lt;crypto/sha.h&gt; into two headers &lt;crypto/sha1.h&gt; and
&lt;crypto/sha2.h&gt;, and make everyone explicitly specify whether they want
the declarations for SHA-1, SHA-2, or both.

This avoids making the SHA-1 declarations visible to files that don't
want anything to do with SHA-1.  It also prepares for potentially moving
sha1.h into a new insecure/ or dangerous/ directory.

engine-&gt;stat_irq_thresh was initialized after device_create_file() in
the probe function, the initialization may race with call to
spacc_stat_irq_thresh_store() which updates engine-&gt;stat_irq_thresh,
therefore initialize it before creating the file in probe function.

<title>crypto: picoxcell - permit asynchronous skcipher as fallback</title>

<id>urn:sha1:dc6e71c9d9cfef98b95cb6e7e91ed2bb64b63e76</id>
<content type='text'>
Even though the picoxcell driver implements asynchronous versions of
ecb(aes) and cbc(aes), the fallbacks it allocates are required to be
synchronous. Given that SIMD based software implementations are usually
asynchronous as well, even though they rarely complete asynchronously
(this typically only happens in cases where the request was made from
softirq context, while SIMD was already in use in the task context that
it interrupted), these implementations are disregarded, and either the
generic C version or another table based version implemented in assembler
is selected instead.

Since falling back to synchronous AES is not only a performance issue, but
potentially a security issue as well (due to the fact that table based AES
is not time invariant), let's fix this, by allocating an ordinary skcipher
as the fallback, and invoke it with the completion routine that was given
to the outer request.

<title>crypto: remove propagation of CRYPTO_TFM_RES_* flags</title>

<id>urn:sha1:af5034e8e4a5838fc77e476c1a91822e449d5869</id>
<content type='text'>
The CRYPTO_TFM_RES_* flags were apparently meant as a way to make the
-&gt;setkey() functions provide more information about errors.  But these
flags weren't actually being used or tested, and in many cases they
weren't being set correctly anyway.  So they've now been removed.

Also, if someone ever actually needs to start better distinguishing
-&gt;setkey() errors (which is somewhat unlikely, as this has been unneeded
for a long time), we'd be much better off just defining different return
values, like -EINVAL if the key is invalid for the algorithm vs.
-EKEYREJECTED if the key was rejected by a policy like "no weak keys".
That would be much simpler, less error-prone, and easier to test.

So just remove CRYPTO_TFM_RES_MASK and all the unneeded logic that
propagates these flags around.

<title>crypto: remove CRYPTO_TFM_RES_BAD_KEY_LEN</title>

<id>urn:sha1:674f368a952c48ede71784935a799a5205b92b6c</id>
<content type='text'>
The CRYPTO_TFM_RES_BAD_KEY_LEN flag was apparently meant as a way to
make the -&gt;setkey() functions provide more information about errors.

However, no one actually checks for this flag, which makes it pointless.

Also, many algorithms fail to set this flag when given a bad length key.
Reviewing just the generic implementations, this is the case for
aes-fixed-time, cbcmac, echainiv, nhpoly1305, pcrypt, rfc3686, rfc4309,
rfc7539, rfc7539esp, salsa20, seqiv, and xcbc.  But there are probably
many more in arch/*/crypto/ and drivers/crypto/.

Some algorithms can even set this flag when the key is the correct
length.  For example, authenc and authencesn set it when the key payload
is malformed in any way (not just a bad length), the atmel-sha and ccree
drivers can set it if a memory allocation fails, and the chelsio driver
sets it for bad auth tag lengths, not just bad key lengths.

So even if someone actually wanted to start checking this flag (which
seems unlikely, since it's been unused for a long time), there would be
a lot of work needed to get it working correctly.  But it would probably
be much better to go back to the drawing board and just define different
return values, like -EINVAL if the key is invalid for the algorithm vs.
-EKEYREJECTED if the key was rejected by a policy like "no weak keys".
That would be much simpler, less error-prone, and easier to test.

So just remove this flag.

Since tasklet is needed to be initialized before registering IRQ
handler, adjust the position of tasklet_init to fix the wrong order.

Besides, to fix the missed tasklet_kill, this patch adds a helper
function and uses devm_add_action to kill the tasklet automatically.

Commit 7a7ffe65c8c5 ("crypto: skcipher - Add top-level skcipher interface")
dated 20 august 2015 introduced the new skcipher API which is supposed to
replace both blkcipher and ablkcipher. While all consumers of the API have
been converted long ago, some producers of the ablkcipher remain, forcing
us to keep the ablkcipher support routines alive, along with the matching
code to expose [a]blkciphers via the skcipher API.

So switch this driver to the skcipher API, allowing us to finally drop the
ablkcipher code in the near future.
