From: Geert Uytterhoeven
Date: Wed Feb 25 2009 - 08:43:38 EST



Hi Herbert,

The following patch series adds support for partial (de)compression to the
CRYPTO API, and modifies SquashFS 4 to use this:

- [1] netlink: Move netlink attribute parsing support to lib/
- [2] crypto: compress - Add pcomp interface
- [3] crypto: testmgr - Add support for the pcomp interface
- [4] crypto: new zlib crypto module, using pcomp
- [5] crypto: testmgr - add zlib test
- [6] squashfs: Make SquashFS 4 use the new pcomp crypto interface

The patches are based on:
linux-2.6.git + cryptodev-2.6.git

Changes since last version (2009-02-18):
- Use netlink attributes for the (de)compression setup parameters
- Move netlink attribute parsing support to lib/, enabled by CONFIG_NLATTR

David, Phillip: can I please have your ack?

If nobody objects, please apply.

Thanks!

With kind regards,
