+ * struct crypto_alg - definition of a cryptograpic cipher algorithm
+ * @cra_flags: Flags describing this transformation. See include/linux/crypto.h
+ * CRYPTO_ALG_* flags for the flags which go in here. Those are
+ * used for fine-tuning the description of the transformation
+ * algorithm.
+ * @cra_blocksize: Minimum block size of this transformation. The size in bytes
+ * of the smallest possible unit which can be transformed with
+ * this algorithm. The users must respect this value.
+ * In case of HASH transformation, it is possible for a smaller
+ * block than @cra_blocksize to be passed to the crypto API for
+ * transformation, in case of any other transformation type, an
+ * error will be returned upon any attempt to transform smaller
+ * than @cra_blocksize chunks.
+ * @cra_ctxsize: Size of the operational context of the transformation. This
+ * value informs the kernel crypto API about the memory size
+ * needed to be allocated for the transformation context.
+ * @cra_alignmask: Alignment mask for the input and output data buffer. The data
+ * buffer containing the input data for the algorithm must be
+ * aligned to this alignment mask. The data buffer for the
+ * output data must be aligned to this alignment mask. Note that
+ * the Crypto API will do the re-alignment in software, but
+ * only under special conditions and there is a performance hit.
+ * The re-alignment happens at these occasions for different
+ * @cra_u types: cipher -- For both input data and output data
+ * buffer; ahash -- For output hash destination buf; shash --
+ * For output hash destination buf.
+ * This is needed on hardware which is flawed by design and
+ * cannot pick data from arbitrary addresses.
+ * @cra_priority: Priority of this transformation implementation. In case
+ * multiple transformations with same @cra_name are available to
+ * the Crypto API, the kernel will use the one with highest
+ * @cra_priority.
+ * @cra_name: Generic name (usable by multiple implementations) of the
+ * transformation algorithm. This is the name of the transformation
+ * itself. This field is used by the kernel when looking up the
+ * providers of particular transformation.
+ * @cra_driver_name: Unique name of the transformation provider. This is the
+ * name of the provider of the transformation. This can be any
+ * arbitrary value, but in the usual case, this contains the
+ * name of the chip or provider and the name of the
+ * transformation algorithm.
+ * @cra_type: Type of the cryptographic transformation. This is a pointer to
+ * struct crypto_type, which implements callbacks common for all
+ * trasnformation types. There are multiple options:
+ * &crypto_blkcipher_type, &crypto_ablkcipher_type,
+ * &crypto_ahash_type, &crypto_aead_type, &crypto_rng_type.
+ * This field might be empty. In that case, there are no common
+ * callbacks. This is the case for: cipher, compress, shash.
+ * @cra_u: Callbacks implementing the transformation. This is a union of
+ * multiple structures. Depending on the type of transformation selected
+ * by @cra_type and @cra_flags above, the associated structure must be
+ * filled with callbacks. This field might be empty. This is the case
+ * for ahash, shash.
+ * @cra_init: Initialize the cryptographic transformation object. This function
+ * is used to initialize the cryptographic transformation object.
+ * This function is called only once at the instantiation time, right
+ * after the transformation context was allocated. In case the
+ * cryptographic hardware has some special requirements which need to
+ * be handled by software, this function shall check for the precise
+ * requirement of the transformation and put any software fallbacks
+ * in place.
+ * @cra_exit: Deinitialize the cryptographic transformation object. This is a
+ * counterpart to @cra_init, used to remove various changes set in
+ * @cra_init.
+ * @cra_module: Owner of this transformation implementation. Set to THIS_MODULE
+ * @cra_list: internally used
+ * @cra_users: internally used
+ * @cra_refcnt: internally used
+ * @cra_destroy: internally used
+ *
+ * The struct crypto_alg describes a generic Crypto API algorithm and is common
+ * for all of the transformations. Any variable not documented here shall not
+ * be used by a cipher implementation as it is internal to the Crypto API.
