Building with clang for a 32-bit architecture runs over the stack frame limit in the setkey function: drivers/crypto/ccree/cc_cipher.c:318:12: error: stack frame size of 1152 bytes in function 'cc_cipher_setkey' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than=] The problem is that there are two large variables: the temporary 'tmp' array and the SHASH_DESC_ON_STACK() declaration. Moving the first into the block in which it is used reduces the total frame size to 768 bytes, which seems more reasonable and is under the warning limit.

All crypto API algorithms are supposed to support the case where they are called in a context where SIMD instructions are unusable, e.g. IRQ context on some architectures. However, this isn't tested for by the self-tests, causing bugs to go undetected. Now that all algorithms have been converted to use crypto_simd_usable(), update the self-tests to test the no-SIMD case. First, a bool testvec_config::nosimd is added. When set, the crypto operation is executed with preemption disabled and with crypto_simd_usable() mocked out to return false on the current CPU. A bool test_sg_division::nosimd is also added. For hash algorithms it's honored by the corresponding ->update(). By setting just a subset of these bools, the case where some ->update()s are done in SIMD context and some are done in no-SIMD context is also tested. These bools are then randomly set by generate_random_testvec_config(). For now, all no-SIMD testing is limited to the extra crypto self-tests, because it might be a bit too invasive for the regular self-tests. But this could be changed later. This has already found bugs in the arm64 AES-GCM and ChaCha algorithms. This would have found some past bugs as well.

So that the no-SIMD fallback code can be tested by the crypto self-tests, add a macro crypto_simd_usable() which wraps may_use_simd(), but also returns false if the crypto self-tests have set a per-CPU bool to disable SIMD in crypto code on the current CPU.

The arm64 gcm-aes-ce algorithm is failing the extra crypto self-tests following my patches to test the !may_use_simd() code paths, which previously were untested. The problem is that in the !may_use_simd() case, an odd number of AES blocks can be processed within each step of the skcipher_walk. However, the skcipher_walk is being done with a "stride" of 2 blocks and is advanced by an even number of blocks after each step. This causes the encryption to produce the wrong ciphertext and authentication tag, and causes the decryption to incorrectly fail. Fix it by only processing an even number of blocks per step.

The arm64 implementations of ChaCha and XChaCha are failing the extra crypto self-tests following my patches to test the !may_use_simd() code paths, which previously were untested. The problem is as follows: When !may_use_simd(), the arm64 NEON implementations fall back to the generic implementation, which uses the skcipher_walk API to iterate through the src/dst scatterlists. Due to how the skcipher_walk API works, walk.stride is set from the skcipher_alg actually being used, which in this case is the arm64 NEON algorithm. Thus walk.stride is 5*CHACHA_BLOCK_SIZE, not CHACHA_BLOCK_SIZE. This unnecessarily large stride shouldn't cause an actual problem. However, the generic implementation computes round_down(nbytes, walk.stride). round_down() assumes the round amount is a power of 2, which 5*CHACHA_BLOCK_SIZE is not, so it gives the wrong result. This causes the following case in skcipher_walk_done() to be hit, causing a WARN() and failing the encryption operation: if (WARN_ON(err)) { /* unexpected case; didn't process all bytes */ err = -EINVAL; goto finish; } Fix it by rounding down to CHACHA_BLOCK_SIZE instead of walk.stride. (Or we could replace round_down() with rounddown(), but that would add a slow division operation every time, which I think we should avoid.)

Update the crypto_simd module to support wrapping AEAD algorithms. Previously it only supported skciphers. The code for each is similar. I'll be converting the x86 implementations of AES-GCM, AEGIS, and MORUS to use this. Currently they each independently implement the same functionality. This will not only simplify the code, but it will also fix the bug detected by the improved self-tests: the user-provided aead_request is modified. This is because these algorithms currently reuse the original request, whereas the crypto_simd helpers build a new request in the original request's context.

Instead of reading job ring's occupancy registers for every req/rsp enqueued/dequeued respectively, we read these registers once and store them in memory. After completing a job enqueue/dequeue, we decrement these values. When these values become zero, we refresh the snapshot of job ring's occupancy registers. This eliminates need of expensive device register read operations for every job enqueued and dequeued and hence makes caam_jr_enqueue() and caam_jr_dequeue() faster. The performance of kernel ipsec improved by about 6% on ls1028 (for frame size 408 bytes).

During a simple no-op (nothing changed) build I saw 39 invocations of the C compiler with the argument "-print-file-name=include". We don't need to call the C compiler 39 times for this--one time will suffice. Let's change NOSTDINC_FLAGS to a simply expanded variable to avoid this since there doesn't appear to be any reason it should be recursively expanded. On my build this shaved ~400 ms off my "no-op" build. Note that the recursive expansion seems to date back to the (really old) commit e8f5bdb0 ("[PATCH] Makefile include path ordering"). It's a little unclear to me if the point of that patch was to switch the variable to be recursively expanded (which it did) or to avoid directly assigning to NOSTDINC_FLAGS (AKA to switch to +=) because someone else (out of tree?) was setting it. I presume later since if the only goal was to switch to recursive expansion the patch would have just removed the ":".

The of_find_device_by_node() takes a reference to the underlying device structure, we should release that reference. The implementation of this semantic code search is: In a function, for a local variable returned by calling of_find_device_by_node(), a, if it is released by a function such as put_device()/of_dev_put()/platform_device_put() after the last use, it is considered that there is no reference leak; b, if it is passed back to the caller via dev_get_drvdata()/platform_get_drvdata()/get_device(), etc., the reference will be released in other functions, and the current function also considers that there is no reference leak; c, for the rest of the situation, the current function should release the reference by calling put_device, this code search will report the corresponding error message. By using this semantic code search, we have found some object reference leaks, such as: commit 11907e9d ("ASoC: fsl-asoc-card: fix object reference leaks in fsl_asoc_card_probe") commit a12085d1 ("mtd: rawnand: atmel: fix possible object reference leak") commit 11493f26 ("mtd: rawnand: jz4780: fix possible object reference leak") There are still dozens of reference leaks in the current kernel code. Further, for the case of b, the object returned to other functions may also have a reference leak, we will continue to develop other cocci scripts to further check the reference leak.

Pull pidfd system call from Christian Brauner: "This introduces the ability to use file descriptors from /proc/<pid>/ as stable handles on struct pid. Even if a pid is recycled the handle will not change. For a start these fds can be used to send signals to the processes they refer to. With the ability to use /proc/<pid> fds as stable handles on struct pid we can fix a long-standing issue where after a process has exited its pid can be reused by another process. If a caller sends a signal to a reused pid it will end up signaling the wrong process. With this patchset we enable a variety of use cases. One obvious example is that we can now safely delegate an important part of process management - sending signals - to processes other than the parent of a given process by sending file descriptors around via scm rights and not fearing that the given process will have been recycled in the meantime. It also allows for easy testing whether a given process is still alive or not by sending signal 0 to a pidfd which is quite handy. There has been some interest in this feature e.g. from systems management (systemd, glibc) and container managers. I have requested and gotten comments from glibc to make sure that this syscall is suitable for their needs as well. In the future I expect it to take on most other pid-based signal syscalls. But such features are left for the future once they are needed. This has been sitting in linux-next for quite a while and has not caused any issues. It comes with selftests which verify basic functionality and also test that a recycled pid cannot be signaled via a pidfd. Jon has written about a prior version of this patchset. It should cover the basic functionality since not a lot has changed since then: https://lwn.net/Articles/773459/ The commit message for the syscall itself is extensively documenting the syscall, including it's functionality and extensibility" * tag 'pidfd-v5.1-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux: selftests: add tests for pidfd_send_signal() signal: add pidfd_send_signal() syscall

Pull device-dax updates from Dan Williams: "New device-dax infrastructure to allow persistent memory and other "reserved" / performance differentiated memories, to be assigned to the core-mm as "System RAM". Some users want to use persistent memory as additional volatile memory. They are willing to cope with potential performance differences, for example between DRAM and 3D Xpoint, and want to use typical Linux memory management apis rather than a userspace memory allocator layered over an mmap() of a dax file. The administration model is to decide how much Persistent Memory (pmem) to use as System RAM, create a device-dax-mode namespace of that size, and then assign it to the core-mm. The rationale for device-dax is that it is a generic memory-mapping driver that can be layered over any "special purpose" memory, not just pmem. On subsequent boots udev rules can be used to restore the memory assignment. One implication of using pmem as RAM is that mlock() no longer keeps data off persistent media. For this reason it is recommended to enable NVDIMM Security (previously merged for 5.0) to encrypt pmem contents at rest. We considered making this recommendation an actively enforced requirement, but in the end decided to leave it as a distribution / administrator policy to allow for emulation and test environments that lack security capable NVDIMMs. Summary: - Replace the /sys/class/dax device model with /sys/bus/dax, and include a compat driver so distributions can opt-in to the new ABI. - Allow for an alternative driver for the device-dax address-range - Introduce the 'kmem' driver to hotplug / assign a device-dax address-range to the core-mm. - Arrange for the device-dax target-node to be onlined so that the newly added memory range can be uniquely referenced by numa apis" NOTE! I'm not entirely happy with the whole "PMEM as RAM" model because we currently have special - and very annoying rules in the kernel about accessing PMEM only with the "MC safe" accessors, because machine checks inside the regular repeat string copy functions can be fatal in some (not described) circumstances. And apparently the PMEM modules can cause that a lot more than regular RAM. The argument is that this happens because PMEM doesn't necessarily get scrubbed at boot like RAM does, but that is planned to be added for the user space tooling. Quoting Dan from another email: "The exposure can be reduced in the volatile-RAM case by scanning for and clearing errors before it is onlined as RAM. The userspace tooling for that can be in place before v5.1-final. There's also runtime notifications of errors via acpi_nfit_uc_error_notify() from background scrubbers on the DIMM devices. With that mechanism the kernel could proactively clear newly discovered poison in the volatile case, but that would be additional development more suitable for v5.2. I understand the concern, and the need to highlight this issue by tapping the brakes on feature development, but I don't see PMEM as RAM making the situation worse when the exposure is also there via DAX in the PMEM case. Volatile-RAM is arguably a safer use case since it's possible to repair pages where the persistent case needs active application coordination" * tag 'devdax-for-5.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: device-dax: "Hotplug" persistent memory for use like normal RAM mm/resource: Let walk_system_ram_range() search child resources mm/memory-hotplug: Allow memory resources to be children mm/resource: Move HMM pr_debug() deeper into resource code mm/resource: Return real error codes from walk failures device-dax: Add a 'modalias' attribute to DAX 'bus' devices device-dax: Add a 'target_node' attribute device-dax: Auto-bind device after successful new_id acpi/nfit, device-dax: Identify differentiated memory with a unique numa-node device-dax: Add /sys/class/dax backwards compatibility device-dax: Add support for a dax override driver device-dax: Move resource pinning+mapping into the common driver device-dax: Introduce bus + driver model device-dax: Start defining a dax bus model device-dax: Remove multi-resource infrastructure device-dax: Kill dax_region base device-dax: Kill dax_region ida
