    crypto: arm/sha512 - accelerated SHA-512 using ARM generic ASM and NEON · c80ae7ca
    Ard Biesheuvel authored
    This replaces the SHA-512 NEON module with the faster and more
    versatile implementation from the OpenSSL project. It consists
    of both a NEON and a generic ASM version of the core SHA-512
    transform, where the NEON version reverts to the ASM version
    when invoked in non-process context.
    
    This patch is based on the OpenSSL upstream version b1a5d1c65208
    of sha512-armv4.pl, which can be found here:

    Performance relative to the generic implementation (measured
    using tcrypt.ko mode=306 sec=1 running on a Cortex-A57 under
    KVM):
