Subject: [PATCH 2/8] crypto: Kconfig - simplify public-key entries
Date: Mon, 15 Aug 2022 14:06:02 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220815190608.47182-3-elliott@hpe.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220815190608.47182-1-elliott@hpe.com>
Shorten menu titles and help text and make them consistent:
* acronym
* name
* architecture and architecture features in parenthesis
* no suffixes like "<something> algorithm", "support", or
"hardware acceleration", or "optimized"
Clarify architecture restrictions (e.g., include x86 in the names of
all the x86-optimized modules.
Simplify descriptions, update references, and ensure that https
references are still valid.
