These two C implementations from Zinc -- a 32x32 one and a 64x64 one,
depending on the platform -- come from Andrew Moon's public domain
poly1305-donna portable code, modified for usage in the kernel. The
precomputation in the 32-bit version and the use of 64x64 multiplies in
the 64-bit version make these perform better than the code it replaces.
Moon's code is also very widespread and has received many eyeballs of
scrutiny.
There's a bit of interference between the x86 implementation, which
relies on internal details of the old scalar implementation. In the next
commit, the x86 implementation will be replaced with a faster one that
doesn't rely on this, so none of this matters much. But for now, to keep
this passing the tests, we inline the bits of the old implementation
that the x86 implementation relied on. Also, since we now support a
slightly larger key space, via the union, some offsets had to be fixed
up.
Nonce calculation was folded in with the emit function, to take
advantage of 64x64 arithmetic. However, Adiantum appeared to rely on no
nonce handling in emit, so this path was conditionalized. We also
introduced a new struct, poly1305_core_key, to represent the precise
amount of space that particular implementation uses.
Testing with kbench9000, depending on the CPU, the update function for
the 32x32 version has been improved by 4%-7%, and for the 64x64 by
19%-30%. The 32x32 gains are small, but I think there's great value in
having a parallel implementation to the 64x64 one so that the two can be
compared side-by-side as nice stand-alone units.

Currently, "cipher" (single-block cipher) spawns are usually initialized
by using crypto_get_attr_alg() to look up the algorithm, then calling
crypto_init_spawn(). In one case, crypto_grab_spawn() is used directly.
The former way is different from how skcipher, aead, and akcipher spawns
are initialized (they use crypto_grab_*()), and for no good reason.
This difference introduces unnecessary complexity.
The crypto_grab_*() functions used to have some problems, like not
holding a reference to the algorithm and requiring the caller to
initialize spawn->base.inst. But those problems are fixed now.
Also, the cipher spawns are not strongly typed; e.g., the API requires
that the user manually specify the flags CRYPTO_ALG_TYPE_CIPHER and
CRYPTO_ALG_TYPE_MASK. Though the "cipher" algorithm type itself isn't
yet strongly typed, we can start by making the spawns strongly typed.
So, let's introduce a new 'struct crypto_cipher_spawn', and functions
crypto_grab_cipher() and crypto_drop_cipher() to grab and drop them.
Later patches will convert all cipher spawns to use these, then make
crypto_spawn_cipher() take 'struct crypto_cipher_spawn' as well, instead
of a bare 'struct crypto_spawn' as it currently does.

uses this circumstance in the crypto4xx_copy_pkt_to_dst() to
its advantage:
"all scatter-buffers are all neatly organized in one big
continuous ringbuffer; So scatterwalk_map_and_copy() can be

The CRYPTO_TFM_RES_BAD_KEY_LEN flag was apparently meant as a way to
make the ->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

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.
