2023-06-27crypto: sig - Fix verify callHerbert Xu
The dst SG list needs to be set to NULL for verify calls. Do this as otherwise the underlying algorithm may fail. Furthermore the digest needs to be copied just like the source. Fixes: 6cb8815f41a9 ("crypto: sig - Add interface for sign/verify") Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2023-06-23crypto: sig - Add interface for sign/verifyHerbert Xu
Split out the sign/verify functionality from the existing akcipher interface. Most algorithms in akcipher either support encryption and decryption, or signing and verify. Only one supports both. As a signature algorithm may not support encryption at all, these two should be spearated. For now sig is simply a wrapper around akcipher as all algorithms remain unchanged. This is a first step and allows users to start allocating sig instead of akcipher. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

2023-04-20crypto: api - Add crypto_clone_tfmHerbert Xu
This patch adds the helper crypto_clone_tfm. The purpose is to allocate a tfm object with GFP_ATOMIC. As we cannot sleep, the object has to be cloned from an existing tfm object. This allows code paths that cannot otherwise allocate a crypto_tfm object to do so. Once a new tfm has been obtained its key could then be changed without impacting other users.

2022-11-25crypto: api - compile out crypto_boot_test_finished when tests disabledEric Biggers
The crypto_boot_test_finished static key is unnecessary when self-tests are disabled in the kconfig, so optimize it out accordingly, along with the entirety of crypto_start_tests().

2021-09-24crypto: api - Fix built-in testing dependency failuresHerbert Xu
When complex algorithms that depend on other algorithms are built into the kernel, the order of registration must be done such that the underlying algorithms are ready before the ones on top are registered. As otherwise they would fail during the self-test which is required during registration. In the past we have used subsystem initialisation ordering to guarantee this. The number of such precedence levels are limited and they may cause ripple effects in other subsystems. This patch solves this problem by delaying all self-tests during boot-up for built-in algorithms. They will be tested either when something else in the kernel requests for them, or when we have finished registering all built-in algorithms, whichever comes earlier.

2020-07-09crypto: api - permit users to specify numa node of acomp hardwareBarry Song
For a Linux server with NUMA, there are possibly multiple (de)compressors which are either local or remote to some NUMA node. Some drivers will automatically use the (de)compressor near the CPU calling acomp_alloc(). However, it is not necessarily correct because users who send acomp_req could be from different NUMA node with the CPU which allocates acomp. Just like kernel has kmalloc() and kmalloc_node(), here crypto can have same support.

2020-04-16crypto: api - Fix use-after-free and race in crypto_spawn_algHerbert Xu
There are two problems in crypto_spawn_alg. First of all it may return spawn->alg even if spawn->dead is set. This results in a double-free as detected by syzbot. Secondly the setting of the DYING flag is racy because we hold the read-lock instead of the write-lock. We should instead call crypto_shoot_alg in a safe manner by gaining a refcount, dropping the lock, and then releasing the refcount. This patch fixes both problems.

2019-12-11crypto: cipher - remove crt_u.cipher (struct cipher_tfm)Eric Biggers
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>
2019-12-11crypto: compress - remove crt_u.compress (struct compress_tfm)Eric Biggers
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().

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.

2012-06-22crypto: algapi - Move larval completion into algbossHerbert Xu
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>

2009-06-18random: Add optional continuous repetition test to entropy store based rngsNeil Horman
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.

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.

2009-06-02crypto: testmgr - Dynamically allocate xbuf and axbufHerbert Xu
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>
2009-02-18crypto: api - Fix crypto_alloc_tfm/create_create_tfm return conventionHerbert Xu
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>
2008-12-25crypto: api - Rebirth of crypto_alloc_tfmHerbert Xu
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>

2008-01-11[CRYPTO] scatterwalk: Move scatterwalk.h to linux/cryptoHerbert Xu
The scatterwalk infrastructure is used by algorithms so it needs to move out of crypto for future users that may live in drivers/crypto or asm/*/crypto. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2007-10-10[CRYPTO] api: Kill crypto_km_typesHerbert Xu
When scatterwalk is built as a module digest.c was broken because it requires the crypto_km_types structure which is in scatterwalk. This patch removes the crypto_km_types structure by encoding the logic into crypto_kmap_type directly. In fact, this even saves a few bytes of code (not to mention the data structure itself) on i386 which is about the only place where it's needed.

2007-02-07[CRYPTO] api: Allow multiple frontends per backendHerbert Xu
This patch adds support for multiple frontend types for each backend algorithm by passing the type and mask through to the backend type init function. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

This patch removes the old cipher interface and related code. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2006-09-21[CRYPTO] digest: Remove old HMAC implementationHerbert Xu
This patch removes the old HMAC implementation now that nobody uses it anymore. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2006-09-21[CRYPTO] cipher: Added block ciphers for CBC/ECBHerbert Xu
This patch adds two block cipher algorithms, CBC and ECB. These are implemented as templates on top of existing single-block cipher algorithms. They invoke the single-block cipher through the new encrypt_one/decrypt_one interface. This also optimises the in-place encryption and decryption to remove the cost of an IV copy each round.

2006-09-21[CRYPTO] api: Feed flag directly to crypto_yieldHerbert Xu
The sleeping flag used to determine whether crypto_yield can actually yield is really a per-operation flag rather than a per-tfm flag. This patch changes crypto_yield to take a flag directly so that we can start using a per-operation flag instead the tfm flag. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
