I pulled these into a libcrypto-fpsimd-on-stack branch based on
2dbb6f4a25d38fcf (which is currently the last commit that I'm planning
for the "main" libcrypto pull request).
Then I updated the head of libcrypto-next to be the merge of
libcrypto-tests, libcrypto-aes-gcm, and libcrypto-fpsimd-on-stack. I'll
send these as separate pull requests after the main libcrypto one.
In theory this should all work out.
Note: I changed "lib/crypto: arm64: Move remaining algorithms to scoped
ksimd API" to remove <asm/neon.h> from lib/crypto/arm64/polyval.h for
consistency with the other files, and to add braces around the for loop.
Thanks!
