Subject: [PATCH 0/4] powerpc/crypto: IBM Power7+ in-Nest compression support
Date: Thu, 19 Jul 2012 09:42:37 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1342708961-28587-1-git-send-email-sjenning@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)

This is a continuation of support for the Power7+ in-Nest
hardware accelerator.

https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/12/223

This patchset adds the hardware driver and the cryptographic
driver for hardware accelerated compression, which uses a
hardware-optimized algorithm named 842.

The hardware driver has limits on generic compression and is
geared toward compressing units that are of PAGE_SIZE for
in-kernel memory compression.

Based on linux-next (20120717)

Seth Jennings (4):
  powerpc: nx: rework Kconfig
  powerpc: nx: add compression support to arch vec
  powerpc: nx: add 842 hardware compression driver
  crypto: add 842 crypto driver
