Implement AES in CFB mode using the existing, mostly constant-time generic AES library implementation. This will be used by the TPM code to encrypt communications with TPM hardware, which is often a discrete component connected using sniffable wires or traces. While a CFB template does exist, using a skcipher is a major pain for non-performance critical synchronous crypto where the algorithm is known at compile time and the data is in contiguous buffers with valid kernel virtual addresses.

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 reStructuredText 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.
