crypto: serpent - add 4-way parallel i586/SSE2 assembler implementation
Patch adds i586/SSE2 assembler implementation of serpent cipher. Assembler functions crypt data in four block chunks. Patch has been tested with tcrypt and automated filesystem tests. Tcrypt benchmarks results (serpent-sse2/serpent_generic speed ratios): Intel Atom N270: size ecb-enc ecb-dec cbc-enc cbc-dec ctr-enc ctr-dec 16 0.95x 1.12x 1.02x 1.07x 0.97x 0.98x 64 1.73x 1.82x 1.08x 1.82x 1.72x 1.73x 256 2.08x 2.00x 1.04x 2.07x 1.99x 2.01x 1024 2.28x 2.18x 1.05x 2.23x 2.17x 2.20x 8192 2.28x 2.13x 1.05x 2.23x 2.18x 2.20x Full output: http://koti.mbnet.fi/axh/kernel/crypto/atom-n270/serpent-generic.txt http://koti.mbnet.fi/axh/kernel/crypto/atom-n270/serpent-sse2.txt Userspace test results: Encryption/decryption of sse2-i586 vs generic on Intel Atom N270: encrypt: 2.35x decrypt: 2.54x Encryption/decryption of sse2-i586 vs generic on AMD Phenom II: encrypt: 1.82x decrypt: 2.51x Encryption/decryption of sse2-i586 vs generic on Intel Xeon E7330: encrypt: 2.99x decrypt: 3.48x Signed-off-by: Jussi Kivilinna <jussi.kivilinna@mbnet.fi> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

+ Serpent cipher algorithm, by Anderson, Biham & Knudsen.
+
+ Keys are allowed to be from 0 to 256 bits in length, in steps
+ of 8 bits.
+
+ This module provides Serpent cipher algorithm that processes four
+ blocks parallel using SSE2 instruction set.
