* block: rename generic_make_request to submit_bio_noacctChristoph Hellwig2020-07-011-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | generic_make_request has always been very confusingly misnamed, so rename it to submit_bio_noacct to make it clear that it is submit_bio minus accounting and a few checks. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
* block: blk-crypto-fallback: remove redundant initialization of variable errColin Ian King2020-05-271-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | The variable err is being initialized with a value that is never read and it is being updated later with a new value. The initialization is redundant and can be removed.

* block: blk-crypto-fallback for Inline EncryptionSatya Tangirala2020-05-141-0/+657
Blk-crypto delegates crypto operations to inline encryption hardware when available. The separately configurable blk-crypto-fallback contains a software fallback to the kernel crypto API - when enabled, blk-crypto will use this fallback for en/decryption when inline encryption hardware is not available. This lets upper layers not have to worry about whether or not the underlying device has support for inline encryption before deciding to specify an encryption context for a bio. It also allows for testing without actual inline encryption hardware - in particular, it makes it possible to test the inline encryption code in ext4 and f2fs simply by running xfstests with the inlinecrypt mount option, which in turn allows for things like the regular upstream regression testing of ext4 to cover the inline encryption code paths. For more details, refer to Documentation/block/inline-encryption.rst.
