Use of multiple-page collect buffers reduces: 1) the number of block IO requests 2) the number of asynchronous hash update requests Second is important for HW accelerated hashing, because significant amount of time is spent for preparation of hash update operation, which includes configuring acceleration HW, DMA engine, etc... Thus, HW accelerators are more efficient when working on large chunks of data. This patch introduces usage of multi-page collect buffers. Buffer size can be specified using 'ahash_bufsize' module parameter. Default buffer size is 4096 bytes. Changes in v3: - kernel parameter replaced with module parameter Signed-off-by: Dmitry Kasatkin <d.kasatkin@samsung.com> Signed-off-by: Mimi Zohar <zohar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> |
