crypto: cast5 - add x86_64/avx assembler implementation
This patch adds a x86_64/avx assembler implementation of the Cast5 block cipher. The implementation processes sixteen blocks in parallel (four 4 block chunk AVX operations). The table-lookups are done in general-purpose registers. For small blocksizes the functions from the generic module are called. A good performance increase is provided for blocksizes greater or equal to 128B. Patch has been tested with tcrypt and automated filesystem tests. Tcrypt benchmark results: Intel Core i5-2500 CPU (fam:6, model:42, step:7) cast5-avx-x86_64 vs. cast5-generic 64bit key: size ecb-enc ecb-dec cbc-enc cbc-dec ctr-enc ctr-dec 16B 0.99x 0.99x 1.00x 1.00x 1.02x 1.01x 64B 1.00x 1.00x 0.98x 1.00x 1.01x 1.02x 256B 2.03x 2.01x 0.95x 2.11x 2.12x 2.13x 1024B 2.30x 2.24x 0.95x 2.29x 2.35x 2.35x 8192B 2.31x 2.27x 0.95x 2.31x 2.39x 2.39x 128bit key: size ecb-enc ecb-dec cbc-enc cbc-dec ctr-enc ctr-dec 16B 0.99x 0.99x 1.00x 1.00x 1.01x 1.01x 64B 1.00x 1.00x 0.98x 1.01x 1.02x 1.01x 256B 2.17x 2.13x 0.96x 2.19x 2.19x 2.19x 1024B 2.29x 2.32x 0.95x 2.34x 2.37x 2.38x 8192B 2.35x 2.32x 0.95x 2.35x 2.39x 2.39x Signed-off-by: Johannes Goetzfried <Johannes.Goetzfried@informatik.stud.uni-erlangen.de> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
