      "message": "[CRYPTO] skcipher: Add givcrypt operations and givcipher type\n\nDifferent block cipher modes have different requirements for intialisation\nvectors.  For example, CBC can use a simple randomly generated IV while\nmodes such as CTR must use an IV generation mechanisms that give a stronger\nguarantee on the lack of collisions.  Furthermore, disk encryption modes\nhave their own IV generation algorithms.\n\nUp until now IV generation has been left to the users of the symmetric\nkey cipher API.  This is inconvenient as the number of block cipher modes\nincrease because the user needs to be aware of which mode is supposed to\nbe paired with which IV generation algorithm.\n\nTherefore it makes sense to integrate the IV generation into the crypto\nAPI.  This patch takes the first step in that direction by creating two\nnew ablkcipher operations, givencrypt and givdecrypt that generates an\nIV before performing the actual encryption or decryption.\n\nThe operations are currently not exposed to the user.  That will be done\nonce the underlying functionality has actually been implemented.\n\nIt also creates the underlying givcipher type.  Algorithms that directly\ngenerate IVs would use it instead of ablkcipher.  All other algorithms\n(including all existing ones) would generate a givcipher algorithm upon\nregistration.  This givcipher algorithm will be constructed from the geniv\nstring that\u0027s stored in every algorithm.  That string will locate a template\nwhich is instantiated by the blkcipher/ablkcipher algorithm in question to\ngive a givcipher algorithm.\n\nSigned-off-by: Herbert Xu \u003cherbert@gondor.apana.org.au\u003e\n"
