This is a follow-up to, and supersedes [0], which moved some WEP code from the cipher to the skcipher interface, in order to reduce the use of the bare cipher interface in non-crypto subsystem code. Since using the skcipher interface to invoke the generic C implementation of an algorithm that is known at compile time is rather pointless, this series moves those users to a new arc4 library interface instead, which is based on the existing code. Along the way, the arc4 cipher implementation is removed entirely, and only the ecb(arc4) code is preserved, which is used in a number of places in the kernel, and is known to be used by at least 'iwd' from user space via the algif_skcipher API. Changes since v4: - add a missing MODULE_LICENSE() for the new libarc4 module - add a missing 'select CRYPTO_LIB_ARC4' to the lib80211-tkip patch - some cosmetic changes for the skcipher driver after removing the cipher code - a testmgr fix to ensure that the test framework understands that this skcipher driver is the reference for testing ecb(arc4) Changes since v3: - fix some remaining occurrences where a tfm non-NULL test should be replaced with a fips_enabled test - use kzfree() or memzero_explicit() to clear the arc4 ctx where appropriate - clean up the function naming of the crypto arc4 driver when removing the cipher part - remove .h declaration of a function that is being removed - revert a prior CIFS change that moved a variable from the stack to the heap, which is no longer necessary - remove arc4 softdep from the cifs code Changes since v2: - drop the crypto_ prefix from the arc4 library functions and types - rename the source file to arc4.c but keep the lib prefix for the actual module to prevent a clash with the crypto API driver - preserve the existing behavior wrt the fips_enabled flag, which prevents any use of ARC4 (note that the fips_enabled flag evaluates to 'false' at compile time for kernels that lack the feature, so with these patches, we get rid of most of the runtime logic regarding FIPS for builds that don't have it enabled) [0] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-crypto/20190607144944.13485-1-ard.biesheuvel@xxxxxxxxxx/ Cc: Herbert Xu <herbert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: "David S.
