The AES-NI instructions are also available in legacy mode so the 32-bit
architecture may profit from those, too.
To illustrate the performance gain here's a short summary of a dm-crypt
speed test on a Core i7 M620 running at 2.67GHz comparing both assembler
implementations:
x86: i568 aes-ni delta
ECB, 256 bit: 93.8 MB/s 123.3 MB/s +31.4%
CBC, 256 bit: 84.8 MB/s 262.3 MB/s +209.3%
LRW, 256 bit: 108.6 MB/s 222.1 MB/s +104.5%
XTS, 256 bit: 105.0 MB/s 205.5 MB/s +95.7%
Additionally, due to some minor optimizations, the 64-bit version also
got a minor performance gain as seen below:
x86-64: old impl. new impl. delta
ECB, 256 bit: 121.1 MB/s 123.0 MB/s +1.5%
CBC, 256 bit: 285.3 MB/s 290.8 MB/s +1.9%
LRW, 256 bit: 263.7 MB/s 265.3 MB/s +0.6%
XTS, 256 bit: 251.1 MB/s 255.3 MB/s +1.7%

This patch adds an optimized RFC4106 AES-GCM implementation for 64-bit
kernels. It supports 128-bit AES key size. This leverages the crypto
AEAD interface type to facilitate a combined AES & GCM operation to
be implemented in assembly code. The assembly code leverages Intel(R)
AES New Instructions and the PCLMULQDQ instruction.

To take advantage of the hardware pipeline implementation of AES-NI
instructions. CTR mode cryption is implemented in ASM to schedule
multiple AES-NI instructions one after another. This way, some latency
of AES-NI instruction can be eliminated.
Performance testing based on dm-crypt should 50% reduction of
ecryption/decryption time.

When renaming kernel_fpu_using to irq_fpu_usable, the semantics of the
function is changed too, from mesuring whether kernel is using FPU,
that is, the FPU is NOT available, to measuring whether FPU is usable,
that is, the FPU is available.
But the usage of irq_fpu_usable in aesni-intel_glue.c is not changed
accordingly. This patch fixes this.

This function measures whether the FPU/SSE state can be touched in
interrupt context. If the interrupted code is in user space or has no
valid FPU/SSE context (CR0.TS == 1), FPU/SSE state can be used in IRQ
or soft_irq context too.
This is used by AES-NI accelerated AES implementation and PCLMULQDQ
accelerated GHASH implementation.
v3:
- Renamed to irq_fpu_usable to reflect the purpose of the function.
v2:
- Renamed to irq_is_fpu_using to reflect the real situation.

at level KERN_ERR. Since aes-intel is aliased to "aes" it will be tried
whenever anything uses AES and spam the console. This doesn't match
existing practice for how to handle "no hardware" when initializing a

Because AES-NI instructions will touch XMM state, corresponding code
must be enclosed within kernel_fpu_begin/end, which used

Because kernel_fpu_begin() and kernel_fpu_end() operations are too
slow, the performance gain of general mode implementation + aes-aesni
is almost all compensated.
The AES-NI support for more modes are implemented as follow:
- Add a new AES algorithm implementation named __aes-aesni without
kernel_fpu_begin/end()
- Use fpu(<mode>(AES)) to provide kenrel_fpu_begin/end() invoking
- Add <mode>(AES) ablkcipher, which uses cryptd(fpu(<mode>(AES))) to
defer cryption to cryptd context in soft_irq context.
Now the ctr, lrw, pcbc and xts support are added.
Performance testing based on dm-crypt shows that cryption time can be
reduced to 50% of general mode implementation + aes-aesni implementation.

Intel AES-NI is a new set of Single Instruction Multiple Data (SIMD)
instructions that are going to be introduced in the next generation of
Intel processor, as of 2009. These instructions enable fast and secure
data encryption and decryption, using the Advanced Encryption Standard
(AES), defined by FIPS Publication number 197. The architecture
introduces six instructions that offer full hardware support for
AES. Four of them support high performance data encryption and
decryption, and the other two instructions support the AES key
expansion procedure.
The white paper can be downloaded from:
http://softwarecommunity.intel.com/isn/downloads/intelavx/AES-Instructions-Set_WP.pdf
AES may be used in soft_irq context, but MMX/SSE context can not be
touched safely in soft_irq context. So in_interrupt() is checked, if
in IRQ or soft_irq context, the general x86_64 implementation are used
instead.
