crypto: af_alg - Drop support for off-CPU cryptography

2026-05-29T06:05:30Z

AF_ALG is deprecated and exposed to unprivileged userspace. Only use the least buggy algorithm implementations: the pure software ones. This removes one of the main advantages of AF_ALG, which is the ability to use it with off-CPU accelerators. However, using off-CPU accelerators has huge overheads, both in performance and attack surface. I have yet to see real-world, performance-critical workloads where using an accelerator via AF_ALG is actually a win over doing cryptography in userspace. If using an off-CPU accelerator really does turn out to be a win, a new API should be developed that is actually a good fit for it. Signed-off-by: Demi Marie Obenour Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

net: Remove support for AIO on sockets

2026-05-29T06:05:30Z

The only user of msg->msg_iocb was AF_ALG, but that's deprecated. It can be removed entirely at the cost of only supporting synchronous operations. This doesn't break userspace, which will silently block (for a bounded amount of time) in io_submit instead of operating asynchronously. This also makes struct msghdr smaller, helping every other caller of sendmsg(). Signed-off-by: Demi Marie Obenour Acked-by: Jakub Kicinski Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: ecrdsa - remove empty sig_alg exit callback

2026-05-29T05:54:43Z

ecrdsa_exit_tfm() is empty, and sig_alg .exit is optional. The corresponding .init callback is not set either, so there is nothing to release in .exit. Remove the empty function and leave .exit unset. Signed-off-by: Thorsten Blum Reviewed-by: Lukas Wunner Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

raid6: hide internals

2026-05-29T04:24:54Z

Split out two new headers from the public pq.h: - lib/raid/raid6/algos.h contains the algorithm lists private to lib/raid/raid6 - include/linux/raid/pq_tables.h contains the tables also used by async_tx providers. The public include/linux/pq.h is now limited to the public interface for the consumers of the RAID6 PQ API.

raid6: improve the public interface

2026-05-29T04:24:54Z

Stop directly calling into function pointers from users of the RAID6 PQ API, and provide exported functions with proper documentation and API guarantees asserts where applicable instead.
