[PATCH v3 7/7] arm64/crypto: add voluntary preemption to Crypto Extensions GHASH

Ard Biesheuvel ard.biesheuvel at linaro.org
Tue Apr 1 06:47:39 PDT 2014


The Crypto Extensions based GHASH implementation uses the NEON register file,
and hence runs with preemption disabled. This patch adds a TIF_NEED_RESCHED
check to its inner loop so we at least give up the CPU voluntarily when if we
are running in process context and have been tagged for preemption by the
scheduler.
