* crypto: remove propagation of CRYPTO_TFM_RES_* flagsEric Biggers2020-01-091-18/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The CRYPTO_TFM_RES_* flags were apparently meant as a way to make the ->setkey() functions provide more information about errors. But these flags weren't actually being used or tested, and in many cases they weren't being set correctly anyway. So they've now been removed. Also, if someone ever actually needs to start better distinguishing ->setkey() errors (which is somewhat unlikely, as this has been unneeded for a long time), we'd be much better off just defining different return values, like -EINVAL if the key is invalid for the algorithm vs. -EKEYREJECTED if the key was rejected by a policy like "no weak keys". That would be much simpler, less error-prone, and easier to test. So just remove CRYPTO_TFM_RES_MASK and all the unneeded logic that propagates these flags around.

* crypto: remove CRYPTO_TFM_RES_BAD_KEY_LENEric Biggers2020-01-091-3/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The CRYPTO_TFM_RES_BAD_KEY_LEN flag was apparently meant as a way to make the ->setkey() functions provide more information about errors. However, no one actually checks for this flag, which makes it pointless. Also, many algorithms fail to set this flag when given a bad length key. Reviewing just the generic implementations, this is the case for aes-fixed-time, cbcmac, echainiv, nhpoly1305, pcrypt, rfc3686, rfc4309, rfc7539, rfc7539esp, salsa20, seqiv, and xcbc. But there are probably many more in arch/*/crypto/ and drivers/crypto/. Some algorithms can even set this flag when the key is the correct length. For example, authenc and authencesn set it when the key payload is malformed in any way (not just a bad length), the atmel-sha and ccree drivers can set it if a memory allocation fails, and the chelsio driver sets it for bad auth tag lengths, not just bad key lengths. So even if someone actually wanted to start checking this flag (which seems unlikely, since it's been unused for a long time), there would be a lot of work needed to get it working correctly. But it would probably be much better to go back to the drawing board and just define different return values, like -EINVAL if the key is invalid for the algorithm vs. -EKEYREJECTED if the key was rejected by a policy like "no weak keys". That would be much simpler, less error-prone, and easier to test. So just remove this flag.

* crypto: shash - allow essiv and hmac to use OPTIONAL_KEY algorithmsEric Biggers2019-12-111-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The essiv and hmac templates refuse to use any hash algorithm that has a ->setkey() function, which includes not just algorithms that always need a key, but also algorithms that optionally take a key. Previously the only optionally-keyed hash algorithms in the crypto API were non-cryptographic algorithms like crc32, so this didn't really matter. But that's changed with BLAKE2 support being added. BLAKE2 should work with essiv and hmac, just like any other cryptographic hash. Fix this by allowing the use of both algorithms without a ->setkey() function and algorithms that have the OPTIONAL_KEY flag set.

* crypto: skcipher - remove the "blkcipher" algorithm typeEric Biggers2019-11-011-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that all "blkcipher" algorithms have been converted to "skcipher", remove the blkcipher algorithm type. The skcipher (symmetric key cipher) algorithm type was introduced a few years ago to replace both blkcipher and ablkcipher (synchronous and asynchronous block cipher). The advantages of skcipher include: - A much less confusing name, since none of these algorithm types have ever actually been for raw block ciphers, but rather for all length-preserving encryption modes including block cipher modes of operation, stream ciphers, and other length-preserving modes. - It unified blkcipher and ablkcipher into a single algorithm type which supports both synchronous and asynchronous implementations. Note, blkcipher already operated only on scatterlists, so the fact that skcipher does too isn't a regression in functionality. - Better type safety by using struct skcipher_alg, struct crypto_skcipher, etc. instead of crypto_alg, crypto_tfm, etc. - It sometimes simplifies the implementations of algorithms. Also, the blkcipher API was no longer being tested. Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
* crypto: essiv - create wrapper template for ESSIV generationArd Biesheuvel2019-09-031-0/+663
Implement a template that wraps a (skcipher,shash) or (aead,shash) tuple so that we can consolidate the ESSIV handling in fscrypt and dm-crypt and move it into the crypto API. This will result in better test coverage, and will allow future changes to make the bare cipher interface internal to the crypto subsystem, in order to increase robustness of the API against misuse.
