Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.

The pure NEON AES implementation predates the bit-slicing one, and is generally slower, unless the algorithm in question can only execute sequentially. So advertising the skciphers that the bit-slicing driver implements as well serves no real purpose, and we can just disable them. Note that the bit-slicing driver also has a link time dependency on the pure NEON driver, for CBC encryption and for XTS tweak calculation, so we still need both drivers on systems that do not implement the Crypto Extensions. At the same time, expose those modaliases for the AES instruction based driver. This is necessary since otherwise, we may end up loading the wrong driver when any of the skciphers are instantiated before the CPU capability based module loading has completed. Finally, add the missing modalias for cts(cbc(aes)) so requests for this algorithm will autoload the correct module. Signed-off-by:Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> Signed-off-by:
