* crypto: api - Fix race condition in crypto_spawn_algHerbert Xu2019-12-111-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | The function crypto_spawn_alg is racy because it drops the lock before shooting the dying algorithm. The algorithm could disappear altogether before we shoot it. This patch fixes it by moving the shooting into the locked section. Fixes: 6bfd48096ff8 ("[CRYPTO] api: Added spawns") Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
* crypto: cipher - remove crt_u.cipher (struct cipher_tfm)Eric Biggers2019-12-111-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Of the three fields in crt_u.cipher (struct cipher_tfm), ->cit_setkey() is pointless because it always points to setkey() in crypto/cipher.c. ->cit_decrypt_one() and ->cit_encrypt_one() are slightly less pointless, since if the algorithm doesn't have an alignmask, they are set directly to ->cia_encrypt() and ->cia_decrypt(). However, this "optimization" isn't worthwhile because: - The "cipher" algorithm type is the only algorithm still using crt_u, so it's bloating every struct crypto_tfm for every algorithm type. - If the algorithm has an alignmask, this "optimization" actually makes things slower, as it causes 2 indirect calls per block rather than 1. - It adds extra code complexity. - Some templates already call ->cia_encrypt()/->cia_decrypt() directly instead of going through ->cit_encrypt_one()/->cit_decrypt_one(). - The "cipher" algorithm type never gives optimal performance anyway. For that, a higher-level type such as skcipher needs to be used. Therefore, just remove the extra indirection, and make crypto_cipher_setkey(), crypto_cipher_encrypt_one(), and crypto_cipher_decrypt_one() be direct calls into crypto/cipher.c. Also remove the unused function crypto_cipher_cast(). Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
* crypto: compress - remove crt_u.compress (struct compress_tfm)Eric Biggers2019-12-111-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | crt_u.compress (struct compress_tfm) is pointless because its two fields, ->cot_compress() and ->cot_decompress(), always point to crypto_compress() and crypto_decompress(). Remove this pointless indirection, and just make crypto_comp_compress() and crypto_comp_decompress() be direct calls to what used to be crypto_compress() and crypto_decompress().

* crypto: api - Introduce notifier for new crypto algorithmsMartin K. Petersen2018-09-041-8/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce a facility that can be used to receive a notification callback when a new algorithm becomes available. This can be used by existing crypto registrations to trigger a switch from a software-only algorithm to a hardware-accelerated version. A new CRYPTO_MSG_ALG_LOADED state is introduced to the existing crypto notification chain, and the register/unregister functions are exported so they can be called by subsystems outside of crypto.

The use of wait_for_completion_interruptible is intentional so that we don't lock up the thread if a bug causes us to never wake up. This bug is caused by the helper thread using the larval without holding a reference count on it. If the helper thread completes after the original thread requesting for help has gone away and destroyed the larval, then we get the crash above. So the fix is to hold a reference count on the larval.

* crypto: algapi - Move larval completion into algbossHerbert Xu2012-06-221-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It has been observed that sometimes the crypto allocation code will get stuck for 60 seconds or multiples thereof. This is usually caused by an algorithm failing to pass the self-test. If an algorithm fails to be constructed, we will immediately notify all larval waiters. However, if it succeeds in construction, but then fails the self-test, we won't notify anyone at all. This patch fixes this by merging the notification in the case where the algorithm fails to be constructed with that of the the case where it pases the self-test. This way regardless of what happens, we'll give the larval waiters an answer. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

* random: Add optional continuous repetition test to entropy store based rngsNeil Horman2009-06-181-6/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | FIPS-140 requires that all random number generators implement continuous self tests in which each extracted block of data is compared against the last block for repetition. The ansi_cprng implements such a test, but it would be nice if the hw rng's did the same thing. Obviously its not something thats always needed, but it seems like it would be a nice feature to have on occasion. I've written the below patch which allows individual entropy stores to be flagged as desiring a continuous test to be run on them as is extracted. By default this option is off, but is enabled in the event that fips mode is selected during bootup.

* crypto: testmgr - Dynamically allocate xbuf and axbufHerbert Xu2009-06-021-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We currently allocate temporary memory that is used for testing statically. This renders the testing engine non-reentrant. As algorithms may nest, i.e., one may construct another in order to carry out a part of its operation, this is unacceptable. For example, it has been reported that an AEAD implementation allocates a cipher in its setkey function, which causes it to fail during testing as the temporary memory is overwritten. This patch replaces the static memory with dynamically allocated buffers. We need a maximum of 16 pages so this slightly increases the chances of an algorithm failing due to memory shortage. However, as testing usually occurs at registration, this shouldn't be a big problem. Reported-by: Shasi Pulijala <spulijala@amcc.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
* crypto: api - Fix crypto_alloc_tfm/create_create_tfm return conventionHerbert Xu2009-02-181-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is based on a report and patch by Geert Uytterhoeven. The functions crypto_alloc_tfm and create_create_tfm return a pointer that needs to be adjusted by the caller when successful and otherwise an error value. This means that the caller has to check for the error and only perform the adjustment if the pointer returned is valid. Since all callers want to make the adjustment and we know how to adjust it ourselves, it's much easier to just return adjusted pointer directly. The only caveat is that we have to return a void * instead of struct crypto_tfm *. However, this isn't that bad because both of these functions are for internal use only (by types code like shash.c, not even algorithms code). This patch also moves crypto_alloc_tfm into crypto/internal.h (crypto_create_tfm is already there) to reflect this. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
* crypto: api - Rebirth of crypto_alloc_tfmHerbert Xu2008-12-251-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch reintroduces a completely revamped crypto_alloc_tfm. The biggest change is that we now take two crypto_type objects when allocating a tfm, a frontend and a backend. In fact this simply formalises what we've been doing behind the API's back. For example, as it stands crypto_alloc_ahash may use an actual ahash algorithm or a crypto_hash algorithm. Putting this in the API allows us to do this much more cleanly. The existing types will be converted across gradually. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

In future this will also be passed onto user-space through netlink. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [CRYPTO] api: Add template registrationHerbert Xu2006-09-211-0/+17
| | | | | | | | | A crypto_template generates a crypto_alg object when given a set of parameters. this patch adds the basic data structure fo templates and code to handle their registration/deregistration.

* [CRYPTO] api: Split out low-level APIHerbert Xu2006-09-211-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | The crypto API is made up of the part facing users such as IPsec and the low-level part which is used by cryptographic entities such as algorithms. This patch splits out the latter so that the two APIs are more clearly delineated. As a bonus the low-level API can now be modularised if all algorithms are built as modules.

* [CRYPTO] Allow multiple implementations of the same algorithmHerbert Xu2006-01-091-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the first step on the road towards asynchronous support in the Crypto API. It adds support for having multiple crypto_alg objects for the same algorithm registered in the system. For example, each device driver would register a crypto_alg object for each algorithm that it supports. While at the same time the user may load software implementations of those same algorithms. Users of the Crypto API may then select a specific implementation by name, or choose any implementation for a given algorithm with the highest priority. The priority field is a 32-bit signed integer. In future it will be possible to modify it from user-space. This also provides a solution to the problem of selecting amongst various AES implementations, that is, aes vs. aes-i586 vs. aes-padlock.

* [CRYPTO]: Added CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_MAY_SLEEP flagHerbert Xu2005-09-011-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The crypto layer currently uses in_atomic() to determine whether it is allowed to sleep. This is incorrect since spin locks don't always cause in_atomic() to return true. Instead of that, this patch returns to an earlier idea of a per-tfm flag which determines whether sleeping is allowed. Unlike the earlier version, the default is to not allow sleeping. This ensures that no existing code can break. As usual, this flag may either be set through crypto_alloc_tfm(), or just before a specific crypto operation.

* [CRYPTO] Ensure cit_iv is aligned correctlyHerbert Xu2005-07-061-0/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | This patch ensures that cit_iv is aligned according to cra_alignmask by allocating it as part of the tfm structure. As a side effect the crypto layer will also guarantee that the tfm ctx area has enough space to be aligned by cra_alignmask. This allows us to remove the extra space reservation from the Padlock driver. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* [CRYPTO] Add support for low-level multi-block operationsHerbert Xu2005-07-061-5/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds hooks for cipher algorithms to implement multi-block ECB/CBC operations directly. This is expected to provide significant performance boots to the VIA Padlock. It could also be used for improving software implementations such as AES where operating on multiple blocks at a time may enable certain optimisations.
