The bluetooth code uses a bare AES cipher for the encryption operations. Given that it carries out a set_key() operation right before every encryption operation, this is clearly not a hot path, and so the use of the cipher interface (which provides the best implementation available on the system) is not really required. In fact, when using a cipher like AES-NI or AES-CE, both the set_key() and the encrypt() operations involve en/disabling preemption as well as stacking and unstacking the SIMD context, and this is most certainly not worth it for encrypting 16 bytes of data. So let's switch to the new lightweight library interface instead. Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
