Whenever seeing Linux kernel mailing list patches from Google engineer Eric Biggers it tends to be about performance optimizations to the Linux kernel's cryptography subsystem. That was once again the case on Sunday with the newest patch series providing some nice gains.

A set of nine patches were sent out by Biggers to migrate the POLYVAL code to the lib/crypto area of the kernel and to replace a generic implementation of POLYVAL with a superior implementation.
