By switching the checksum to PCLMULQDQ based computation, we can speedup the computation by 8x for checksumming 512 bytes and even more for larger buffer size. This will improve performance of SCSI drivers turning on the CRC-T10IDF checksum. In our SSD based experiments, we have seen increase disk throughput by 3.5x with T10DIF for 512 byte block size. This patch set provides the x86_64 routine using PCLMULQDQ instruction and switches the crc_t10dif library function to use the faster PCLMULQDQ based routine when available. Tim v3 1. Update the crct10dif crypto transform used in the crct10dif library in a safe way. 2. Load the accelerated t10dif transform for the x86_64 cpus that support it. 3. Added generic crct10dif crypto transform. v2 1. Get rid of unnecessary xmm registers save and restore and fix ENDPROC position in PCLMULQDQ version of crc t10dif computation. 2. Fix URL to paper reference of CRC computation with PCLMULQDQ. 3. Add one additional tcrypt test case to exercise more code paths through crc t10dif computation. 4. Fix config dependencies of CRYPTO_CRCT10DIF. Thanks to Herbert Xu, Matthew Wilcox and Jussi Kivilinna who reviewed the patches and Keith Busch for testing version 1 of the patch set.
