Pull non-MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - "pid: make sub-init creation retryable" (Oleg Nesterov)

   Make creation of init in a new namespace more robust by clearing away
   some historical cruft which is no longer needed. Also some
   documentation fixups

 - "selftests/fchmodat2: Error handling and general" (Mark Brown)

   Fix and a cleanup for the fchmodat2() syscall selftest

 - "lib: polynomial: Move to math/ and clean up" (Andy Shevchenko)

 - "hung_task: Provide runtime reset interface for hung task detector"
   (Aaron Tomlin)

   Give administrators the ability to zero out
   /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_detect_count

 - "tools/getdelays: use the static UAPI headers from
   tools/include/uapi" (Thomas Weißschuh)

   Teach getdelays to use the in-kernel UAPI headers rather than the
   system-provided ones

 - "watchdog/hardlockup: Improvements to hardlockup" (Mayank Rungta)

   Several cleanups and fixups to the hardlockup detector code and its
   documentation

 - "lib/bch: fix undefined behavior from signed left-shifts" (Josh Law)

   A couple of small/theoretical fixes in the bch code

 - "ocfs2/dlm: fix two bugs in dlm_match_regions()" (Junrui Luo)

 - "cleanup the RAID5 XOR library" (Christoph Hellwig)

   A quite far-reaching cleanup to this code. I can't do better than to
   quote Christoph:

     "The XOR library used for the RAID5 parity is a bit of a mess right
      now. The main file sits in crypto/ despite not being cryptography
      and not using the crypto API, with the generic implementations
      sitting in include/asm-generic and the arch implementations
      sitting in an asm/ header in theory. The latter doesn't work for
      many cases, so architectures often build the code directly into
      the core kernel, or create another module for the architecture
      code.

      Change this to a single module in lib/ that also contains the
      architecture optimizations, similar to the library work Eric
      Biggers has done for the CRC and crypto libraries later. After
      that it changes to better calling conventions that allow for
      smarter architecture implementations (although none is contained
      here yet), and uses static_call to avoid indirection function call
      overhead"

 - "lib/list_sort: Clean up list_sort() scheduling workarounds"
   (Kuan-Wei Chiu)

   Clean up this library code by removing a hacky thing which was added
   for UBIFS, which UBIFS doesn't actually need

 - "Fix bugs in extract_iter_to_sg()" (Christian Ehrhardt)

   Fix a few bugs in the scatterlist code, add in-kernel tests for the
   now-fixed bugs and fix a leak in the test itself

 - "kdump: Enable LUKS-encrypted dump target support in ARM64 and
   PowerPC" (Coiby Xu)

   Enable support of the LUKS-encrypted device dump target on arm64 and
   powerpc

 - "ocfs2: consolidate extent list validation into block read callbacks"
   (Joseph Qi)

   Cleanup, simplify, and make more robust ocfs2's validation of extent
   list fields (Kernel test robot loves mounting corrupted fs images!)

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Core & protocols:

   - Support HW queue leasing, allowing containers to be granted access
     to HW queues for zero-copy operations and AF_XDP

   - Number of code moves to help the compiler with inlining. Avoid
     output arguments for returning drop reason where possible

   - Rework drop handling within qdiscs to include more metadata about
     the reason and dropping qdisc in the tracepoints

   - Remove the rtnl_lock use from IP Multicast Routing

   - Pack size information into the Rx Flow Steering table pointer
     itself. This allows making the table itself a flat array of u32s,
     thus making the table allocation size a power of two

   - Report TCP delayed ack timer information via socket diag

   - Add ip_local_port_step_width sysctl to allow distributing the
     randomly selected ports more evenly throughout the allowed space

   - Add support for per-route tunsrc in IPv6 segment routing

   - Start work of switching sockopt handling to iov_iter

   - Improve dynamic recvbuf sizing in MPTCP, limit burstiness and avoid
     buffer size drifting up

   - Support MSG_EOR in MPTCP

   - Add stp_mode attribute to the bridge driver for STP mode selection.
     This addresses concerns about call_usermodehelper() usage

   - Remove UDP-Lite support (as announced in 2023)

   - Remove support for building IPv6 as a module. Remove the now
     unnecessary function calling indirection

  Cross-tree stuff:

   - Move Michael MIC code from generic crypto into wireless, it's
     considered insecure but some WiFi networks still need it

  Netfilter:

   - Switch nft_fib_ipv6 module to no longer need temporary dst_entry
     object allocations by using fib6_lookup() + RCU.

     Florian W reports this gets us ~13% higher packet rate

   - Convert IPVS's global __ip_vs_mutex to per-net service_mutex and
     switch the service tables to be per-net. Convert some code that
     walks the service lists to use RCU instead of the service_mutex

   - Add more opinionated input validation to lower security exposure

   - Make IPVS hash tables to be per-netns and resizable

  Wireless:

   - Finished assoc frame encryption/EPPKE/802.1X-over-auth

   - Radar detection improvements

   - Add 6 GHz incumbent signal detection APIs

   - Multi-link support for FILS, probe response templates and client
     probing

   - New APIs and mac80211 support for NAN (Neighbor Aware Networking,
     aka Wi-Fi Aware) so less work must be in firmware

  Driver API:

   - Add numerical ID for devlink instances (to avoid having to create
     fake bus/device pairs just to have an ID). Support shared devlink
     instances which span multiple PFs

   - Add standard counters for reporting pause storm events (implement
     in mlx5 and fbnic)

   - Add configuration API for completion writeback buffering (implement
     in mana)

   - Support driver-initiated change of RSS context sizes

   - Support DPLL monitoring input frequency (implement in zl3073x)

   - Support per-port resources in devlink (implement in mlx5)

Pull crypto library updates from Eric Biggers:

 - Migrate more hash algorithms from the traditional crypto subsystem to
   lib/crypto/

   Like the algorithms migrated earlier (e.g. SHA-*), this simplifies
   the implementations, improves performance, enables further
   simplifications in calling code, and solves various other issues:

     - AES CBC-based MACs (AES-CMAC, AES-XCBC-MAC, and AES-CBC-MAC)

         - Support these algorithms in lib/crypto/ using the AES library
           and the existing arm64 assembly code

         - Reimplement the traditional crypto API's "cmac(aes)",
           "xcbc(aes)", and "cbcmac(aes)" on top of the library

         - Convert mac80211 to use the AES-CMAC library. Note: several
           other subsystems can use it too and will be converted later

         - Drop the broken, nonstandard, and likely unused support for
           "xcbc(aes)" with key lengths other than 128 bits

         - Enable optimizations by default

     - GHASH

         - Migrate the standalone GHASH code into lib/crypto/

         - Integrate the GHASH code more closely with the very similar
           POLYVAL code, and improve the generic GHASH implementation to
           resist cache-timing attacks and use much less memory

         - Reimplement the AES-GCM library and the "gcm" crypto_aead
           template on top of the GHASH library. Remove "ghash" from the
           crypto_shash API, as it's no longer needed

         - Enable optimizations by default

     - SM3

         - Migrate the kernel's existing SM3 code into lib/crypto/, and
           reimplement the traditional crypto API's "sm3" on top of it

         - I don't recommend using SM3, but this cleanup is worthwhile
           to organize the code the same way as other algorithms

 - Testing improvements:

     - Add a KUnit test suite for each of the new library APIs

     - Migrate the existing ChaCha20Poly1305 test to KUnit

     - Make the KUnit all_tests.config enable all crypto library tests

     - Move the test kconfig options to the Runtime Testing menu

 - Other updates to arch-optimized crypto code:

     - Optimize SHA-256 for Zhaoxin CPUs using the Padlock Hash Engine

     - Remove some MD5 implementations that are no longer worth keeping

     - Drop big endian and voluntary preemption support from the arm64
       code, as those configurations are no longer supported on arm64

 - Make jitterentropy and samples/tsm-mr use the crypto library APIs

8c6d03b7a2 crypto: Remove michael_mic from crypto_shash API
Remove the "michael_mic" crypto_shash algorithm, since it's no longer
used.  Its only users were wireless drivers, which have now been
converted to use the michael_mic() function instead.

It makes sense that no other users ever appeared: Michael MIC is an
insecure algorithm that is specific to WPA TKIP, which itself was an
interim security solution to replace the broken WEP standard.

6d888db2cf crypto: remove HKDF library
Remove crypto/hkdf.c, since it's no longer used.  Originally it had two
users, but now both of them just inline the needed HMAC computations
using the HMAC library APIs.  That ends up being better, since it
eliminates all the complexity and performance issues associated with the
crypto_shash abstraction and multi-step HMAC input formatting.

ed065bd06e crypto: sm3 - Replace with wrapper around library
Reimplement the "sm3" crypto_shash on top of the SM3 library, closely
mirroring the other hash algorithms (e.g. SHA-*).

The result, after later commits migrate the architecture-optimized SM3
code into the library as well, is that crypto/sm3.c will be the single
point of integration between crypto_shash and the actual SM3
implementations, simplifying the code.

Note: to see the diff from crypto/sm3_generic.c to crypto/sm3.c, view

6dc7fce910 crypto: sm3 - Rename CRYPTO_SM3_GENERIC to CRYPTO_SM3
The kconfig options for generic crypto API modules have traditionally
*not* had a "_GENERIC" suffix.  Also, the "_GENERIC" suffix will make
even less sense once the architecture-optimized SM3 code is moved into
lib/crypto/ and the "sm3" crypto_shash is reimplemented on top of that.

Thus, rename CRYPTO_SM3_GENERIC to CRYPTO_SM3.

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "Lock debugging:

   - Implement compiler-driven static analysis locking context checking,
     using the upcoming Clang 22 compiler's context analysis features
     (Marco Elver)

     We removed Sparse context analysis support, because prior to
     removal even a defconfig kernel produced 1,700+ context tracking
     Sparse warnings, the overwhelming majority of which are false
     positives. On an allmodconfig kernel the number of false positive
     context tracking Sparse warnings grows to over 5,200... On the plus
     side of the balance actual locking bugs found by Sparse context
     analysis is also rather ... sparse: I found only 3 such commits in
     the last 3 years. So the rate of false positives and the
     maintenance overhead is rather high and there appears to be no
     active policy in place to achieve a zero-warnings baseline to move
     the annotations & fixers to developers who introduce new code.

     Clang context analysis is more complete and more aggressive in
     trying to find bugs, at least in principle. Plus it has a different
     model to enabling it: it's enabled subsystem by subsystem, which
     results in zero warnings on all relevant kernel builds (as far as
     our testing managed to cover it). Which allowed us to enable it by
     default, similar to other compiler warnings, with the expectation
     that there are no warnings going forward. This enforces a
     zero-warnings baseline on clang-22+ builds (Which are still limited
     in distribution, admittedly)

     Hopefully the Clang approach can lead to a more maintainable
     zero-warnings status quo and policy, with more and more subsystems
     and drivers enabling the feature. Context tracking can be enabled
     for all kernel code via WARN_CONTEXT_ANALYSIS_ALL=y (default
     disabled), but this will generate a lot of false positives.

     ( Having said that, Sparse support could still be added back,
       if anyone is interested - the removal patch is still
       relatively straightforward to revert at this stage. )

a248447427 crypto: aes - Replace aes-generic with wrapper around lib
Now that the AES library's performance has been improved, replace
aes_generic.c with a new file aes.c which wraps the AES library.

In preparation for making the AES library actually utilize the kernel's
existing architecture-optimized AES code including AES instructions, set
the driver name to "aes-lib" instead of "aes-generic".  This mirrors
what's been done for the hash algorithms.  Update testmgr.c accordingly.

Since this removes the crypto_aes_set_key() helper function, add
temporary replacements for it to arch/arm/crypto/aes-cipher-glue.c and
arch/arm64/crypto/aes-cipher-glue.c.  This is temporary, as that code
will be migrated into lib/crypto/ in later commits.

641e70563a crypto: aes - Remove aes-fixed-time / CONFIG_CRYPTO_AES_TI
Remove aes-fixed-time, i.e. CONFIG_CRYPTO_AES_TI.  This was a wrapper
around the 256-byte-table-based AES implementation in lib/crypto/aes.c,
with extra code to enable and disable IRQs for constant-time hardening.

While nice in theory, in practice this had the following issues:

- For bulk en/decryption it was 2-4 times slower than aes-generic.  This
  resulted in aes-generic still being needed, creating fragmentation.

- Having both aes-generic and aes-fixed-time punted an AES
  implementation decision to distros and users who are generally
  unprepared to handle it.  In practice, whether aes-fixed-time gets
  used tends to be incidental and not match an explicit distro or user
  intent.  (While aes-fixed-time has a higher priority than aes-generic,
  whether it actually gets enabled, loaded, and used depends on the
  kconfig and whether a modprobe of "aes" happens to be done.  It also
  has a lower priority than aes-arm and aes-arm64.)

- My changes to the generic AES code (in other commits) significantly
  close the gap with aes-fixed-time anyway.  The table size is reduced
  from 8192 bytes to 1024 bytes, and prefetching is added.

- While AES code *should* be constant-time, the real solutions for that
  are AES instructions (which most CPUs have now) or bit-slicing.  arm
  and arm64 already have bit-sliced AES code for many modes; generic
  bit-sliced code could be written but would be very slow for single
  blocks.  Overall, I suggest that trying to write constant-time
  table-based AES code is a bit futile anyway, and in the rare cases
  where a proper AES implementation is still unavailable it's reasonable
  to compromise with an implementation that simply prefetches the table.

Thus, this commit removes aes-fixed-time and CONFIG_CRYPTO_AES_TI.  The
replacement is just the existing CONFIG_CRYPTO_AES, which for now maps
to the existing aes-generic code, but I'll soon be changing to use the
improved AES library code instead.

dc36d55d4e crypto: Enable context analysis
Enable context analysis for crypto subsystem.

This demonstrates a larger conversion to use Clang's context
analysis. The benefit is additional static checking of locking rules,
along with better documentation.

Note the use of the __acquire_ret macro how to define an API where a
function returns a pointer to an object (struct scomp_scratch) with a
lock held. Additionally, the analysis only resolves aliases where the
analysis unambiguously sees that a variable was not reassigned after
initialization, requiring minor code changes.

Remove ansi_cprng, since it's obsolete and unused, as confirmed at
https://lore.kernel.org/r/aQxpnckYMgAAOLpZ@gondor.apana.org.au/

This was originally added in 2008, apparently as a FIPS approved random
number generator.  Whether this has ever belonged upstream is
questionable.  Either way, ansi_cprng is no longer usable for this
purpose, since it's been superseded by the more modern algorithms in
crypto/drbg.c, and FIPS itself no longer allows it.  (NIST SP 800-131A
Rev 1 (2015) says that RNGs based on ANSI X9.31 will be disallowed after
2015.  NIST SP 800-131A Rev 2 (2019) confirms they are now disallowed.)

Therefore, there is no reason to keep it around.

Pull crypto library updates from Eric Biggers:
 "This is the main crypto library pull request for 6.17. The main focus
  this cycle is on reorganizing the SHA-1 and SHA-2 code, providing
  high-quality library APIs for SHA-1 and SHA-2 including HMAC support,
  and establishing conventions for lib/crypto/ going forward:

   - Migrate the SHA-1 and SHA-512 code (and also SHA-384 which shares
     most of the SHA-512 code) into lib/crypto/. This includes both the
     generic and architecture-optimized code. Greatly simplify how the
     architecture-optimized code is integrated. Add an easy-to-use
     library API for each SHA variant, including HMAC support. Finally,
     reimplement the crypto_shash support on top of the library API.

   - Apply the same reorganization to the SHA-256 code (and also SHA-224
     which shares most of the SHA-256 code). This is a somewhat smaller
     change, due to my earlier work on SHA-256. But this brings in all
     the same additional improvements that I made for SHA-1 and SHA-512.

  There are also some smaller changes:

   - Move the architecture-optimized ChaCha, Poly1305, and BLAKE2s code
     from arch/$(SRCARCH)/lib/crypto/ to lib/crypto/$(SRCARCH)/. For
     these algorithms it's just a move, not a full reorganization yet.

   - Fix the MIPS chacha-core.S to build with the clang assembler.

   - Fix the Poly1305 functions to work in all contexts.

   - Fix a performance regression in the x86_64 Poly1305 code.

   - Clean up the x86_64 SHA-NI optimized SHA-1 assembly code.

  Note that since the new organization of the SHA code is much simpler,
  the diffstat of this pull request is negative, despite the addition of
  new fully-documented library APIs for multiple SHA and HMAC-SHA
  variants.

  These APIs will allow further simplifications across the kernel as
  users start using them instead of the old-school crypto API. (I've
  already written a lot of such conversion patches, removing over 1000
  more lines of code. But most of those will target 6.18 or later)"

e0cd371691 crypto: sha256 - Wrap library and add HMAC support
Like I did for crypto/sha512.c, rework crypto/sha256.c to simply wrap
the normal library functions instead of accessing the low-level arch-
optimized and generic block functions directly.  Also add support for
HMAC-SHA224 and HMAC-SHA256, again just wrapping the library functions.

Since the replacement crypto_shash algorithms are implemented using the
(potentially arch-optimized) library functions, give them driver names
ending with "-lib" rather than "-generic".  Update crypto/testmgr.c and
a couple odd drivers to take this change in driver name into account.

Besides the above cases which are accounted for, there are no known
cases where the driver names were being depended on.  There is
potential for confusion for people manually checking /proc/crypto (e.g.
https://lore.kernel.org/r/9e33c893-2466-4d4e-afb1-966334e451a2@linux.ibm.com/),
but really people just need to get used to the driver name not being
meaningful for the software algorithms.  Historically, the optimized
code was disabled by default, so there was some purpose to checking
whether it was enabled or not.  However, this is now fixed for all SHA-2
algorithms, and the library code just always does the right thing.  E.g.
if the CPU supports SHA-256 instructions, they are used.

This change does also mean that the generic partial block handling code
in crypto/shash.c, which got added in 6.16, no longer gets used.  But
that's fine; the library has to implement the partial block handling
anyway, and it's better to do it in the library since the block size and
other properties of the algorithm are all fixed at compile time there,
resulting in more streamlined code.

b0e04dde8e crypto/crc32[c]: register only "-lib" drivers
For the "crc32" and "crc32c" shash algorithms, instead of registering
"*-generic" drivers as well as conditionally registering "*-$(ARCH)"
drivers, instead just register "*-lib" drivers.  These just use the
regular library functions crc32_le() and crc32c(), so they just do the
right thing and are fully accelerated when supported by the CPU.

This eliminates the need for the CRC library to export crc32_le_base()
and crc32c_base().  Separate commits make those static functions.

Since this commit removes the "crc32-generic" and "crc32c-generic"
driver names which crypto/testmgr.c expects to exist, update testmgr.c
accordingly.  This does mean that testmgr.c will no longer fuzz-test the
"generic" implementation against the "arch" implementation for crc32 and
crc32c, but this was redundant with crc_kunit anyway.

Besides the above, and btrfs_init_csum_hash() which the previous commit
fixed, no code appears to have been relying on the "crc32-generic" or
"crc32c-generic" driver names specifically.

btrfs does export the checksum name and checksum driver name in
/sys/fs/btrfs/$uuid/checksum.  This commit makes the driver name portion
of that file contain "crc32c-lib" instead of "crc32c-generic" or
"crc32c-$(ARCH)".  This should be fine, since in practice the purpose of
the driver name portion of this file seems to have been just to allow
users to manually check whether they needed to enable the optimized
CRC32C code.  This was needed only because of the bug in old kernels
where the optimized CRC32C code defaulted to off and even needed to be
explicitly added to the ramdisk to be used.  Now that it just works in
Linux 6.14 and later, there's no need for users to take any action and
the driver name portion of this is basically obsolete.  (Also, note that
the crc32c driver name already changed in 6.14.)

469acaa125 crypto: sha512 - Replace sha512_generic with wrapper around SHA-512 library
Delete crypto/sha512_generic.c, which provided "generic" SHA-384 and
SHA-512 crypto_shash algorithms.  Replace it with crypto/sha512.c which
provides SHA-384, SHA-512, HMAC-SHA384, and HMAC-SHA512 crypto_shash
algorithms using the corresponding library functions.

This is a prerequisite for migrating all the arch-optimized SHA-512 code
(which is almost 3000 lines) to lib/crypto/ rather than duplicating it.

Since the replacement crypto_shash algorithms are implemented using the
(potentially arch-optimized) library functions, give them
cra_driver_names ending with "-lib" rather than "-generic".  Update
crypto/testmgr.c and one odd driver to take this change in driver name
into account.  Besides these cases which are accounted for, there are no
known cases where the cra_driver_name was being depended on.

This change does mean that the abstract partial block handling code in
crypto/shash.c, which got added in 6.16, no longer gets used.  But
that's fine; the library has to implement the partial block handling
anyway, and it's better to do it in the library since the block size and
other properties of the algorithm are all fixed at compile time there,
resulting in more streamlined code.

950e5c8411 crypto: sha256 - support arch-optimized lib and expose through shash
As has been done for various other algorithms, rework the design of the
SHA-256 library to support arch-optimized implementations, and make
crypto/sha256.c expose both generic and arch-optimized shash algorithms
that wrap the library functions.

This allows users of the SHA-256 library functions to take advantage of
the arch-optimized code, and this makes it much simpler to integrate
SHA-256 for each architecture.

Note that sha256_base.h is not used in the new design.  It will be
removed once all the architecture-specific code has been updated.

Move the generic block function into its own module to avoid a circular
dependency from libsha256.ko => sha256-$ARCH.ko => libsha256.ko.

46e3311607 crypto: crc32 - remove "generic" from file and module names
Since crc32_generic.c and crc32c_generic.c now expose both the generic
and architecture-optimized implementations via the crypto_shash API,
rather than just the generic implementations as they originally did,
remove the "generic" part of the filenames and module names:

    crypto/crc32-generic.c => crypto/crc32.c
    crypto/crc32c-generic.c => crypto/crc32c.c
    crc32-generic.ko => crc32-cryptoapi.ko
    crc32c-generic.ko => crc32c-cryptoapi.ko

The reason for adding the -cryptoapi suffixes to the module names is to
avoid a module name collision with crc32.ko which is the library API.

We could instead rename the library module to libcrc32.ko.  However,
while lib/crypto/ uses that convention, the rest of lib/ doesn't.  Since
the library API is the primary API for CRC-32, I'd like to keep the
unsuffixed name for it and make the Crypto API modules use a suffix.

ecaa4be128 crypto: poly1305 - centralize the shash wrappers for arch code
Following the example of the crc32, crc32c, and chacha code, make the
crypto subsystem register both generic and architecture-optimized
poly1305 shash algorithms, both implemented on top of the appropriate
library functions.  This eliminates the need for every architecture to
implement the same shash glue code.

Note that the poly1305 shash requires that the key be prepended to the
data, which differs from the library functions where the key is simply a
parameter to poly1305_init().  Previously this was handled at a fairly
low level, polluting the library code with shash-specific code.
Reorganize things so that the shash code handles this quirk itself.

Also, to register the architecture-optimized shashes only when
architecture-optimized code is actually being used, add a function
poly1305_is_arch_optimized() and make each arch implement it.  Change
each architecture's Poly1305 module_init function to arch_initcall so
that the CPU feature detection is guaranteed to run before
poly1305_is_arch_optimized() gets called by crypto/poly1305.c.  (In
cases where poly1305_is_arch_optimized() just returns true
unconditionally, using arch_initcall is not strictly needed, but it's
still good to be consistent across architectures.)

d1775a177f crypto: Add 'krb5enc' hash and cipher AEAD algorithm
Add an AEAD template that does hash-then-cipher (unlike authenc that does
cipher-then-hash).  This is required for a number of Kerberos 5 encoding
types.

[!] Note that the net/sunrpc/auth_gss/ implementation gets a pair of
ciphers, one non-CTS and one CTS, using the former to do all the aligned
blocks and the latter to do the last two blocks if they aren't also
aligned.  It may be necessary to do this here too for performance reasons -
but there are considerations both ways:

 (1) firstly, there is an optimised assembly version of cts(cbc(aes)) on
     x86_64 that should be used instead of having two ciphers;

 (2) secondly, none of the hardware offload drivers seem to offer CTS
     support (Intel QAT does not, for instance).

However, I don't know if it's possible to query the crypto API to find out
whether there's an optimised CTS algorithm available.

8522104f75 crypto: crct10dif - remove from crypto API
Remove the "crct10dif" shash algorithm from the crypto API.  It has no
known user now that the lib is no longer built on top of it.  It has no
remaining references in kernel code.  The only other potential users
would be the usual components that allow specifying arbitrary hash
algorithms by name, namely AF_ALG and dm-integrity.   However there are
no indications that "crct10dif" is being used with these components.
Debian Code Search and web searches don't find anything relevant, and
explicitly grepping the source code of the usual suspects (cryptsetup,
libell, iwd) finds no matches either.  "crc32" and "crc32c" are used in
a few more places, but that doesn't seem to be the case for "crct10dif".

crc_t10dif_update() is also tested by crc_kunit now, so the test
coverage provided via the crypto self-tests is no longer needed.

Also note that the "crct10dif" shash algorithm was inconsistent with the
rest of the shash API in that it wrote the digest in CPU endianness,
making the resulting byte array differ on little endian vs. big endian
platforms.  This means it was effectively just built for use by the lib
functions, and it was not actually correct to treat it as "just another
hash function" that could be dropped in via the shash API.

0fcec0b73a crypto: crc64-rocksoft - remove from crypto API
Remove crc64-rocksoft from the crypto API.  It has no known user now
that the lib is no longer built on top of it.  It was also added much
more recently than the longstanding crc32 and crc32c.  Unlike crc32 and
crc32c, crc64-rocksoft is also not mentioned in the dm-integrity
documentation and there are no references to it in anywhere in the
cryptsetup git repo, so it is unlikely to have any user there either.

Also, this CRC variant is named incorrectly; it has nothing to do with
Rocksoft and should be called crc64-nvme.  That is yet another reason to
remove it from the crypto API; we would not want anyone to start
depending on the current incorrect algorithm name of crc64-rocksoft.

Note that this change temporarily makes this CRC variant not be covered
by any tests, as previously it was relying on the crypto self-tests.
This will be fixed by adding this CRC variant to crc_kunit.

730f67d8b8 crypto: keywrap - remove unused keywrap algorithm
The keywrap (kw) algorithm has no in-tree user.  It has never had an
in-tree user, and the patch that added it provided no justification for
its inclusion.  Even use of it via AF_ALG is impossible, as it uses a
weird calling convention where part of the ciphertext is returned via
the IV buffer, which is not returned to userspace in AF_ALG.

It's also unclear whether any new code in the kernel that does key
wrapping would actually use this algorithm.  It is controversial in the
cryptographic community due to having no clearly stated security goal,
no security proof, poor performance, and only a 64-bit auth tag.  Later
work (https://eprint.iacr.org/2006/221) suggested that the goal is
deterministic authenticated encryption.  But there are now more modern
algorithms for this, and this is not the same as key wrapping, for which
a regular AEAD such as AES-GCM usually can be (and is) used instead.

Therefore, remove this unused code.

There were several special cases for this algorithm in the self-tests,
due to its weird calling convention.  Remove those too.

2890601f54 crypto: vmac - remove unused VMAC algorithm
Remove the vmac64 template, as it has no known users.  It also continues
to have longstanding bugs such as alignment violations (see
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241226134847.6690-1-evepolonium@gmail.com/).

This code was added in 2009 by commit f1939f7c56 ("crypto: vmac - New
hash algorithm for intel_txt support").  Based on the mention of
intel_txt support in the commit title, it seems it was added as a
prerequisite for the contemporaneous patch
"intel_txt: add s3 userspace memory integrity verification"
(https://lore.kernel.org/r/4ABF2B50.6070106@intel.com/).  In the design
proposed by that patch, when an Intel Trusted Execution Technology (TXT)
enabled system resumed from suspend, the "tboot" trusted executable
launched the Linux kernel without verifying userspace memory, and then
the Linux kernel used VMAC to verify userspace memory.

However, that patch was never merged, as reviewers had objected to the
design.  It was later reworked into commit 4bd96a7a81 ("x86, tboot:
Add support for S3 memory integrity protection") which made tboot verify
the memory instead.  Thus the VMAC support in Linux was never used.

No in-tree user has appeared since then, other than potentially the
usual components that allow specifying arbitrary hash algorithms by
name, namely AF_ALG and dm-integrity.  However there are no indications
that VMAC is being used with these components.  Debian Code Search and
web searches for "vmac64" (the actual algorithm name) do not return any
results other than the kernel itself, suggesting that it does not appear
in any other code or documentation.  Explicitly grepping the source code
of the usual suspects (libell, iwd, cryptsetup) finds no matches either.

Before 2018, the vmac code was also completely broken due to using a
hardcoded nonce and the wrong endianness for the MAC.  It was then fixed
by commit ed331adab3 ("crypto: vmac - add nonced version with big
endian digest") and commit 0917b87312 ("crypto: vmac - remove insecure
version with hardcoded nonce").  These were intentionally breaking
changes that changed all the computed MAC values as well as the
algorithm name ("vmac" to "vmac64").  No complaints were ever received
about these breaking changes, strongly suggesting the absence of users.

The reason I had put some effort into fixing this code in 2018 is
because it was used by an out-of-tree driver.  But if it is still needed
in that particular out-of-tree driver, the code can be carried in that
driver instead.  There is no need to carry it upstream.

21dda37f3f crypto: crct10dif - expose arch-optimized lib function
Now that crc_t10dif_update() may be directly optimized for each
architecture, make the shash driver for crct10dif register a
crct10dif-$arch algorithm that uses it, instead of only
crct10dif-generic which uses crc_t10dif_generic().

The result is that architecture-optimized crct10dif will remain
available through the shash API once the architectures implement
crc_t10dif_arch() instead of the shash API.
