The use of the term "glue" in filenames is a Crypto API-ism that does not show up elsewhere in lib/. I think adopting it there was a mistake. The library just uses standard functions, so the amount of code that could be considered "glue" is quite small. And while often the C functions just wrap the assembly functions, there are also cases like crc32c_arch() in arch/x86/lib/crc32-glue.c that blur the line by in-lining the actual implementation into the C function. That's not "glue code", but rather the actual code. Therefore, let's drop "glue" from the filenames and instead use e.g. crc32.c instead of crc32-glue.c. Reviewed-by: "Martin K.

README
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 reStructuredText 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.
