This patch is a CE-optimized assembly implementation for GCM mode. Benchmark on T-Head Yitian-710 2.75 GHz, the data comes from the 224 and 224 modes of tcrypt, and compared the performance before and after this patch (the driver used before this patch is gcm_base(ctr-sm4-ce,ghash-generic)). The abscissas are blocks of different lengths. The data is tabulated and the unit is Mb/s: Before (gcm_base(ctr-sm4-ce,ghash-generic)): gcm(sm4) | 16 64 256 512 1024 1420 4096 8192 -------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------- GCM enc | 25.24 64.65 104.66 116.69 123.81 125.12 129.67 130.62 GCM dec | 25.40 64.80 104.74 116.70 123.81 125.21 129.68 130.59 GCM mb enc | 24.95 64.06 104.20 116.38 123.55 124.97 129.63 130.61 GCM mb dec | 24.92 64.00 104.13 116.34 123.55 124.98 129.56 130.48 After: gcm-sm4-ce | 16 64 256 512 1024 1420 4096 8192 -------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------- GCM enc | 108.62 397.18 971.60 1283.92 1522.77 1513.39 1777.00 1806.96 GCM dec | 116.36 398.14 1004.27 1319.11 1624.21 1635.43 1932.54 1974.20 GCM mb enc | 107.13 391.79 962.05 1274.94 1514.76 1508.57 1769.07 1801.58 GCM mb dec | 113.40 389.36 988.51 1307.68 1619.10 1631.55 1931.70 1970.86 Signed-off-by: Tianjia Zhang <tianjia.zhang@linux.alibaba.com> 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.
