2026-01-15lib/crypto: aesgcm: Use new AES library APIEric Biggers
Switch from the old AES library functions (which use struct crypto_aes_ctx) to the new ones (which use struct aes_enckey). This eliminates the unnecessary computation and caching of the decryption round keys. The new AES en/decryption functions are also much faster and use AES instructions when supported by the CPU. Note that in addition to the change in the key preparation function and the key struct type itself, the change in the type of the key struct results in aes_encrypt() (which is temporarily a type-generic macro) calling the new encryption function rather than the old one.

2022-11-11crypto: lib/aesgcm - Provide minimal library implementationArd Biesheuvel
Implement a minimal library version of AES-GCM based on the existing library implementations of AES and multiplication in GF(2^128). Using these primitives, GCM can be implemented in a straight-forward manner. GCM has a couple of sharp edges, i.e., the amount of input data processed with the same initialization vector (IV) should be capped to protect the counter from 32-bit rollover (or carry), and the size of the authentication tag should be fixed for a given key. [0] The former concern is addressed trivially, given that the function call API uses 32-bit signed types for the input lengths. It is still up to the caller to avoid IV reuse in general, but this is not something we can police at the implementation level. As for the latter concern, let's make the authentication tag size part of the key schedule, and only permit it to be configured as part of the key expansion routine. Note that table based AES implementations are susceptible to known plaintext timing attacks on the encryption key. The AES library already attempts to mitigate this to some extent, but given that the counter mode encryption used by GCM operates exclusively on known plaintext by construction (the IV and therefore the initial counter value are known to an attacker), let's take some extra care to mitigate this, by calling the AES library with interrupts disabled.

2019-08-09crypto: gcm - helper functions for assoclen/authsize checkIuliana Prodan
Added inline helper functions to check authsize and assoclen for gcm, rfc4106 and rfc4543. These are used in the generic implementation of gcm, rfc4106 and rfc4543. Signed-off-by: Iuliana Prodan <iuliana.prodan@nxp.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2017-09-22crypto: gcm - add GCM IV size constantCorentin LABBE
Many GCM users use directly GCM IV size instead of using some constant. This patch add all IV size constant used by GCM. Signed-off-by: Corentin Labbe <clabbe.montjoie@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
