[ Upstream commit fd7f6727102a1ccf6b4c1dfcc631f9b546526b26 ]

I don't think it makes sense for a module to have a soft dependency
on itself. This seems quite cyclic by nature and I can't see what
purpose it could serve.

OTOH libcrc32c calls crypto_alloc_shash("crc32c", 0, 0) so it pretty
much assumes that some incarnation of the "crc32c" hash algorithm has
been loaded. Therefore it makes sense to have the soft dependency
there (as crc-t10dif does.)

crypto: add missing crypto module aliases 2015-01-30T01:40:46+00:00 Mathias Krause minipli@googlemail.com 2015-01-11T17:17:42+00:00 47e4434d89fe19b883b37efd70f5f4fe44f495fc commit 3e14dcf7cb80b34a1f38b55bc96f02d23fdaaaaf upstream. Commit 5d26a105b5a7 ("crypto: prefix module autoloading with "crypto-"") changed the automatic module loading when requesting crypto algorithms to prefix all module requests with "crypto-". This requires all crypto modules to have a crypto specific module alias even if their file name would otherwise match the requested crypto algorithm. Even though commit 5d26a105b5a7 added those aliases for a vast amount of modules, it was missing a few. Add the required MODULE_ALIAS_CRYPTO annotations to those files to make them get loaded automatically, again. This fixes, e.g., requesting 'ecb(blowfish-generic)', which used to work with kernels v3.18 and below. Also change MODULE_ALIAS() lines to MODULE_ALIAS_CRYPTO(). The former won't work for crypto modules any more.

commit 3e14dcf7cb80b34a1f38b55bc96f02d23fdaaaaf upstream.

Commit 5d26a105b5a7 ("crypto: prefix module autoloading with "crypto-"")
changed the automatic module loading when requesting crypto algorithms
to prefix all module requests with "crypto-". This requires all crypto
modules to have a crypto specific module alias even if their file name
would otherwise match the requested crypto algorithm.

Even though commit 5d26a105b5a7 added those aliases for a vast amount of
modules, it was missing a few. Add the required MODULE_ALIAS_CRYPTO
annotations to those files to make them get loaded automatically, again.
This fixes, e.g., requesting 'ecb(blowfish-generic)', which used to work
with kernels v3.18 and below.

Also change MODULE_ALIAS() lines to MODULE_ALIAS_CRYPTO(). The former
won't work for crypto modules any more.

CRC32C: Add soft module dependency to load other accelerated crc32c modules 2014-02-25T11:45:04+00:00 Tim Chen tim.c.chen@linux.intel.com 2014-01-23T11:25:47+00:00 06e5a1f29819759392239669beb2cad27059c8ec We added the soft module dependency of crc32c module alias to generic crc32c module so other hardware accelerated crc32c modules could get loaded and used before the generic version.
