2020-09-25crypto: af_alg - add extra parameters for DRBG interfaceElena Petrova
Extend the user-space RNG interface: 1. Add entropy input via ALG_SET_DRBG_ENTROPY setsockopt option; 2. Add additional data input via sendmsg syscall. This allows DRBG to be tested with test vectors, for example for the purpose of CAVP testing, which otherwise isn't possible. To prevent erroneous use of entropy input, it is hidden under CRYPTO_USER_API_RNG_CAVP config option and requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN to succeed.

2020-07-23crypto: Replace HTTP links with HTTPS onesAlexander A. Klimov
Rationale: Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate. Deterministic algorithm: For each file: If not .svg: For each line: If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`: For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`: If neither `\bgnu\.org/license`, nor `\bmozilla\.org/MPL\b`: If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions return 200 OK and serve the same content: Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

2016-12-13crypto: doc - convert crypto API documentation to SphinxStephan Mueller
With the conversion of the kernel crypto API DocBook to Sphinx, the monolithic document is broken up into individual documents. The documentation is unchanged with the exception of a slight reordering to keep the individual document parts self-contained.
