Subject: [PATCH v2 10/13] crypto: aes - Add CTR and XCTR support using library
Date: Wed, 15 Jul 2026 15:11:50 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260715221153.246410-11-ebiggers@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260715221153.246410-1-ebiggers@kernel.org>

Implement the "ctr(aes)" and "xctr(aes)" crypto_skcipher algorithms
using the corresponding library functions.

Among other benefits, this allows the architecture-optimized AES-CTR and
AES-XCTR code to be migrated into the library while still leaving it
accessible via crypto_skcipher, eliminating lots of boilerplate code.

For now the cra_priority is set to just 110, since the
architecture-optimized implementations of these algorithms haven't yet
been migrated into the library.  It will be boosted once that happens.
