This is because each SHA-256 (and also most other cryptographic hash functions) is inherently serialized and therefore can't always take advantage of the CPU's full throughput. An earlier attempt to support multibuffer hashing in Linux was based around the ahash API. That approach had some major issues, as does the alternative ahash-based approach proposed by Herbert (see my response at https://lore.kernel.org/linux-crypto/20240610164258.GA3269@sol.localdomain/). This patchset instead takes a much simpler approach of just adding a synchronous API for hashing equal-length messages. This works well for dm-verity and fsverity, which use Merkle trees and therefore hash large numbers of equal-length messages. This patchset is organized as follows: - Patch 1-2 add crypto_shash_finup_mb() and tests for it. - Patch 3-4 implement finup_mb on x86_64 and arm64, using an interleaving factor of 2. - Patch 5 adds multibuffer hashing support to fsverity. - Patch 6-7 add multibuffer hashing support to dm-verity. This patchset increases raw SHA-256 hashing throughput by up to 98%, depending on the CPU (see patches for per-CPU results). The throughput of cold-cache reads from dm-verity and fsverity increases by around 35%. Changed in v7: - Rebased onto v6.12-rc1 and dropped patches that were upstreamed. - Added performance results for more CPUs. Changed in v6: - All patches: added Reviewed-by and Acked-by tags - "crypto: testmgr - add tests for finup_mb": Whitespace fix - "crypto: testmgr - generate power-of-2 lengths more often": Fixed undefined behavior - "fsverity: improve performance by using multibuffer hashing": Simplified a comment - "dm-verity: reduce scope of real and wanted digests": Fixed mention of nonexistent function in commit message - "dm-verity: improve performance by using multibuffer hashing": Two small optimizations, and simplified a comment Changed in v5: - Reworked the dm-verity patches again. Split the preparation work into separate patches, fixed two bugs, and added some new cleanups. - Other small cleanups Changed in v4: - Reorganized the fsverity and dm-verity code to have a unified code path for single-block vs. multi-block processing. For data blocks they now use only crypto_shash_finup_mb(). Changed in v3: - Change API from finup2x to finup_mb. It now takes arrays of data buffer and output buffers, avoiding hardcoding 2x in the API. Changed in v2: - Rebase onto cryptodev/master - Add more comments to assembly - Reorganize some of the assembly slightly - Fix the claimed throughput improvement on arm64 - Fix incorrect kunmap order in fs/verity/verify.c - Adjust testmgr generation logic slightly - Explicitly check for INT_MAX before casting unsigned int to int - Mention SHA3 based parallel hashes - Mention AVX512-based approach Eric Biggers (7): crypto: shash - add support for finup_mb crypto: testmgr - add tests for finup_mb crypto: x86/sha256-ni - add support for finup_mb crypto: arm64/sha256-ce - add support for finup_mb fsverity: improve performance by using multibuffer hashing dm-verity: reduce scope of real and wanted digests dm-verity: improve performance by using multibuffer hashing arch/arm64/crypto/sha2-ce-core.S | 281 ++++++++++++++++++++- arch/arm64/crypto/sha2-ce-glue.c | 40 +++ arch/x86/crypto/sha256_ni_asm.S | 368 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ arch/x86/crypto/sha256_ssse3_glue.c | 39 +++ crypto/shash.c | 58 +++++ crypto/testmgr.c | 73 +++++- drivers/md/dm-verity-fec.c | 19 +- drivers/md/dm-verity-fec.h | 5 +- drivers/md/dm-verity-target.c | 192 +++++++++++---- drivers/md/dm-verity.h | 34 +-- fs/verity/fsverity_private.h | 7 + fs/verity/hash_algs.c | 8 +- fs/verity/verify.c | 169 ++++++++++--- include/crypto/hash.h | 52 +++- 14 files changed, 1224 insertions(+), 121 deletions(-) base-commit: 9852d85ec9d492ebef56dc5f229416c925758edc
