lib/crypto: chacha: Rename libchacha.c to chacha.c

2025-08-29T16:50:19Z

Rename libchacha.c to chacha.c to make the naming consistent with other algorithms and allow additional source files to be added to the libchacha module. This file currently contains chacha_crypt_generic(), but it will soon be updated to contain chacha_crypt().

lib/crypto: Explicitly include

2025-06-30T16:26:19Z

Fix build warnings with W=1 that started appearing after commit a934a57a42f6 ("scripts/misc-check: check missing #include when W=1"). While at it, also sort the include lists alphabetically. (Keep asm/irqflags.h last, as otherwise it doesn't build on alpha.) This handles all of lib/crypto/, but not arch/*/lib/crypto/. The exports in arch/*/lib/crypto/ will go away when the code is properly integrated into lib/crypto/ as planned.

crypto: lib/chacha - strongly type the ChaCha state

2025-05-12T05:32:53Z

The ChaCha state matrix is 16 32-bit words. Currently it is represented in the code as a raw u32 array, or even just a pointer to u32. This weak typing is error-prone. Instead, introduce struct chacha_state: struct chacha_state { u32 x[16]; }; Convert all ChaCha and HChaCha functions to use struct chacha_state. No functional changes.

crypto: chacha - move existing library code into lib/crypto

2019-11-17T01:02:39Z

Currently, our generic ChaCha implementation consists of a permute function in lib/chacha.c that operates on the 64-byte ChaCha state directly [and which is always included into the core kernel since it is used by the /dev/random driver], and the crypto API plumbing to expose it as a skcipher. In order to support in-kernel users that need the ChaCha streamcipher but have no need [or tolerance] for going through the abstractions of the crypto API, let's expose the streamcipher bits via a library API as well, in a way that permits the implementation to be superseded by an architecture specific one if provided. So move the streamcipher code into a separate module in lib/crypto, and expose the init() and crypt() routines to users of the library. Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu
