[PATCH v2 6/6] crypto: lib/sha - Combine round constants and message schedule

From: Arvind Sankar
Date: Tue Oct 20 2020 - 16:40:28 EST


Putting the round constants and the message schedule arrays together in
one structure saves one register, which can be a significant benefit on
register-constrained architectures. On x86-32 (tested on Broadwell
Xeon), this gives a 10% performance benefit.
