Provide an option to handle the partial blocks in the shash API. Almost every hash algorithm has a block size and are only able to hash partial blocks on finalisation. Rather than duplicating the partial block handling many times, add this functionality to the shash API. It is optional (e.g., hmac would never need this by relying on the partial block handling of the underlying hash), and to enable it set the bit CRYPTO_AHASH_ALG_BLOCK_ONLY. The export format is always that of the underlying hash export, plus the partial block buffer, followed by a single-byte for the partial block length. Set the bit CRYPTO_AHASH_ALG_FINAL_NONZERO to withhold an extra byte in the partial block. This will come in handy when this is extended to ahash where hardware often can't deal with a zero-length final. It will also be used for algorithms requiring an extra block for finalisation (e.g., cmac). As an optimisation, set the bit CRYPTO_AHASH_ALG_FINUP_MAX if the algorithm wishes to get as much data as possible instead of just the last partial block. The descriptor will be zeroed after finalisation. 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 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.
