In some cases (at least on ARM), it takes more than a cycle for the result of an instruction to become available to the next one, even if the computation itself completes in a single cycle, and this affects in-order cores as well. The crux here is that the associated benefit only exists if the independent inputs can be interleaved at the instruction level. OoO cores will have some tolerance for deviations from this, but in the general case, this kind of multi-stream processing requires meticulous parallellization. That also means that it is substantially different from the asynchronous accelerator use case where a single IP block may have different queues that can be used in parallel. For these, it might make sense to provide some infrastructure to mix inputs from disparate sources, but the same logic is unlikely to be useful for the CPU based parallel hashing case. ... > > This patch takes a new approach of just adding an API > crypto_shash_finup_mb() that synchronously computes the hash of multiple > equal-length messages, starting from a common state that represents the > (possibly empty) common prefix shared by the messages. > This is an independent optimization, right?

If you're referring to the part about using a common starting state, that's not an independent optimization. Only multibuffer hashing processes multiple messages in one call and therefore has an opportunity to share a starting shash_desc for finup. This isn't just an optimization but it also makes the multibuffer hashing API and its implementation much simpler. With single-buffer there has to be one shash_desc per message as usual. If you're asking if crypto_shash_finup_mb() can be used even without multibuffer hashing support, the answer is yes. This patchset makes crypto_shash_finup_mb() fall back to crypto_shash_finup() as needed, and this is used by fsverity and dm-verity to have one code path that uses crypto_shash_finup_mb() instead of separate code paths that use crypto_shash_finup_mb() and crypto_shash_finup(). This just makes things a bit simpler and isn't an optimization; note that the fallback has to copy the shash_desc for each message beyond the first. - Eric
