66c9c6c0fb block-sha1: improved SHA1 hashing
I think I have found a way to avoid the gcc crazyness.

Lookie here:

	nettle          1.591       383.6

notice? I outperform all the hand-tuned asm on 32-bit too. By quite a
margin, in fact.

Now, I didn't try a P4, and it's possible that it won't do that there, but
the 32-bit code generation sure looks impressive on my Nehalem box. The
magic? I force the stores to the 512-bit hash bucket to be done in order.
That seems to help a lot.

The diff is trivial (on top of the "rename registers with cpp" patch), as
appended. And it does seem to fix the P4 issues too, although I can
obviously (once again) only test Prescott, and only in 64-bit mode:

	#             TIME[s] SPEED[MB/s]
	rfc3174         1.662       36.73
	rfc3174          1.64       37.22
	linus          0.2523       241.9
	linusas        0.4367       139.8
	linusas2       0.4487         136
	mozilla        0.9704        62.9
	mozillaas      0.9399       64.94

that's some really impressive improvement. All from just saying "do the
stores in the order I told you to, dammit!" to the compiler.

30d12d4c16 block-sha1: perform register rotation using cpp
Instead of letting the compiler to figure out the optimal way to rotate
register usage, explicitly rotate the register names with cpp.

5d5210c35a block-sha1: get rid of redundant 'lenW' context
.. and simplify the ctx->size logic.

We now count the size in bytes, which means that 'lenW' was always just
the low 6 bits of the total size, so we don't carry it around separately
any more.  And we do the 'size in bits' shift at the end.

Suggested by Nicolas Pitre and linux@horizon.com.

e869e113c8 block-sha1: Use '(B&C)+(D&(B^C))' instead of '(B&C)|(D&(B|C))' in round 3
It's an equivalent expression, but the '+' gives us some freedom in
instruction selection (for example, we can use 'lea' rather than 'add'),
and associates with the other additions around it to give some minor
scheduling freedom.

ab14c823df block-sha1: macroize the rounds a bit further
Avoid repeating the shared parts of the different rounds by adding a
macro layer or two. It was already more cpp than C.

7b5075fcfb block-sha1: re-use the temporary array as we calculate the SHA1
The mozilla-SHA1 code did this 80-word array for the 80 iterations.  But
the SHA1 state is really just 512 bits, and you can actually keep it in
a kind of "circular queue" of just 16 words instead.

This requires us to do the xor updates as we go along (rather than as a
pre-phase), but that's really what we want to do anyway.

This gets me really close to the OpenSSL performance on my Nehalem.
Look ma, all C code (ok, there's the rol/ror hack, but that one doesn't
strictly even matter on my Nehalem, it's just a local optimization).

139e3456ec block-sha1: make the 'ntohl()' part of the first SHA1 loop
This helps a teeny bit.  But what I -really- want to do is to avoid the
whole 80-array loop, and do the xor updates as I go along..

fd536d3439 block-sha1: minor fixups
Bert Wesarg noticed non-x86 version of SHA_ROT() had a typo.
Also spell in-line assembly as __asm__(), otherwise I seem to get
error: implicit declaration of function 'asm' from my compiler.

b8e48a89b8 block-sha1: try to use rol/ror appropriately
Use the one with the smaller constant.  It _can_ generate slightly
smaller code (a constant of 1 is special), but perhaps more importantly
it's possibly faster on any uarch that does a rotate with a loop.

d7c208a92e Add new optimized C 'block-sha1' routines
Based on the mozilla SHA1 routine, but doing the input data accesses a
word at a time and with 'htonl()' instead of loading bytes and shifting.

It requires an architecture that is ok with unaligned 32-bit loads and a
fast htonl().
