Subject: [GIT PULL] AES-GCM optimizations for 6.19
Date: Sat, 29 Nov 2025 18:47:19 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251130024719.GD12664@sol> (raw)
The following changes since commit dcb6fa37fd7bc9c3d2b066329b0d27dedf8becaa:

crypto: x86/aes-gcm-vaes-avx2 - initialize full %rax return register (2025-11-03 09:07:57 -0800)
----------------------------------------------------------------
More optimizations and cleanups for the x86_64 AES-GCM code:
- Add a VAES+AVX2 optimized implementation of AES-GCM. This is very
helpful on CPUs that have VAES but not AVX512, such as AMD Zen 3.
- Make the VAES+AVX512 optimized implementation of AES-GCM handle
large amounts of associated data efficiently.
- Remove the "avx10_256" implementation of AES-GCM. It's superseded by
the VAES+AVX2 optimized implementation.
- Rename the "avx10_512" implementation to "avx512".
Overall, this fills in a gap where AES-GCM wasn't fully optimized on
some recent CPUs. It also drops code that won't be as useful as
initially expected due to AVX10/256 being dropped from the AVX10 spec.
