From a0fc20333ee4bac1147c4cf75dea098c26671a2f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ard Biesheuvel Date: Wed, 21 Apr 2021 09:55:10 +0200 Subject: fscrypt: relax Kconfig dependencies for crypto API algorithms Even if FS encryption has strict functional dependencies on various crypto algorithms and chaining modes. those dependencies could potentially be satisified by other implementations than the generic ones, and no link time dependency exists on the 'depends on' claused defined by CONFIG_FS_ENCRYPTION_ALGS. So let's relax these clauses to 'imply', so that the default behavior is still to pull in those generic algorithms, but in a way that permits them to be disabled again in Kconfig.

However, fsverity has no strict link time dependency, and the same shash could be exposed by an optimized implementation, and arm64 has a number of those (scalar, NEON-based and one based on special crypto instructions). In such cases, it makes little sense to require that the generic C implementation is incorporated as well, given that it will never be called. To address this, relax the 'select' clause to 'imply' so that the generic driver can be omitted from the build if desired.
