Eric Biggers bb40d32689 crypto: xts - use 'spawn' for underlying single-block cipher 
Since commit adad556efc ("crypto: api - Fix built-in testing
dependency failures"), the following warning appears when booting an
x86_64 kernel that is configured with
CONFIG_CRYPTO_MANAGER_EXTRA_TESTS=y and CONFIG_CRYPTO_AES_NI_INTEL=y,
even when CONFIG_CRYPTO_XTS=y and CONFIG_CRYPTO_AES=y:

    alg: skcipher: skipping comparison tests for xts-aes-aesni because xts(ecb(aes-generic)) is unavailable

This is caused by an issue in the xts template where it allocates an
"aes" single-block cipher without declaring a dependency on it via the
crypto_spawn mechanism.  This issue was exposed by the above commit
because it reversed the order that the algorithms are tested in.

Specifically, when "xts(ecb(aes-generic))" is instantiated and tested
during the comparison tests for "xts-aes-aesni", the "xts" template
allocates an "aes" crypto_cipher for encrypting tweaks.  This resolves
to "aes-aesni".  (Getting "aes-aesni" instead of "aes-generic" here is a
bit weird, but it's apparently intended.)  Due to the above-mentioned
commit, the testing of "aes-aesni", and the finalization of its
registration, now happens at this point instead of before.  At the end
of that, crypto_remove_spawns() unregisters all algorithm instances that
depend on a lower-priority "aes" implementation such as "aes-generic"
but that do not depend on "aes-aesni".  However, because "xts" does not
use the crypto_spawn mechanism for its "aes", its dependency on
"aes-aesni" is not recognized by crypto_remove_spawns().  Thus,
crypto_remove_spawns() unexpectedly unregisters "xts(ecb(aes-generic))".

Fix this issue by making the "xts" template use the crypto_spawn
mechanism for its "aes" dependency, like what other templates do.

Note, this fix could be applied as far back as commit f1c131b454
("crypto: xts - Convert to skcipher").  However, the issue only got
exposed by the much more recent changes to how the crypto API runs the
self-tests, so there should be no need to backport this to very old
kernels.  Also, an alternative fix would be to flip the list iteration
order in crypto_start_tests() to restore the original testing order.
I'm thinking we should do that too, since the original order seems more
natural, but it shouldn't be relied on for correctness.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
