2015-01-14MPILIB: Fix comparison of negative MPIsRasmus Villemoes1-1/+1
If u and v both represent negative integers and their limb counts happen to differ, mpi_cmp will always return a positive value - this is obviously bogus. u is smaller than v if and only if it is larger in absolute value.

2015-01-14MPILIB: Deobfuscate mpi_cmpRasmus Villemoes1-5/+3
The condition preceding 'return 1;' makes my head hurt. At this point, we know that u and v have the same sign; if they are negative, they compare opposite to how their absolute values compare (which mpihelp_cmp found for us), otherwise cmp itself is the answer. Negating cmp is ok since mpihelp_cmp returns {-1,0,1}; -INT_MIN==INT_MIN won't bite us.

2012-10-08MPILIB: Reinstate mpi_cmp[_ui]() and export for RSA signature verificationDavid Howells1-0/+70

2012-05-26Revert "crypto: GnuPG based MPI lib - additional sources (part 4)"Dmitry Kasatkin1-68/+0
This reverts commit 7e8dec918ef8e0f68b4937c3c50fa57002077a4d. RSA verification implementation does not use this code. James Morris has asked to remove that.

2011-11-09crypto: GnuPG based MPI lib - additional sources (part 4)Dmitry Kasatkin1-0/+68
Adds the multi-precision-integer maths library which was originally taken from GnuPG and ported to the kernel by (among others) David Howells. This version is taken from Fedora kernel 2.6.32-71.14.1.el6. The difference is that checkpatch reported errors and warnings have been fixed. This library is used to implemenet RSA digital signature verification used in IMA/EVM integrity protection subsystem. Due to patch size limitation, the patch is divided into 4 parts. This code is unnecessary for RSA digital signature verification, but for completeness it is included here and can be compiled, if CONFIG_MPILIB_EXTRA is enabled.
