To fast update encryption keys, those freed keys with need_sync bit 1 and in_use bit 0 in a bulk, can be recycled. The keys are cached internally by the NIC, so invalidating internal NIC caches by SYNC_CRYPTO command is required before reusing them. A threshold in driver is added to avoid invalidating for every update. Only when the number of DEKs, which need to be synced, is over this threshold, the sync process will start. Besides, it is done in system workqueue. After SYNC_CRYPTO command is executed successfully, the bitmaps of each bulk must be reset accordingly, so that the freed DEKs can be reused. From the analysis in previous patch, the number of reused DEKs can be calculated by hweight_long(need_sync XOR in_use), and the need_sync bits can be reset by simply copying from in_use bits. Two more list (avail_list and sync_list) are added for each pool. The avail_list is for a bulk when all bits in need_sync are reset after sync. If there is no avail deks, and all are be freed by users, the bulk is moved to sync_list, instead of being destroyed in previous patch, and waiting for the invalidation. While syncing, they are simply reset need_sync bits, and moved to avail_list. Besides, add a wait_for_free list for the to-be-free DEKs. It is to avoid this corner case: when thread A is done with SYNC_CRYPTO but just before starting to reset the bitmaps, thread B is alloc dek, and free it immediately. It's obvious that this DEK can't be reused this time, so put it to waiting list, and do free after bulk bitmaps reset is finished.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
