      crypto: doc - clear htmldocs build warnings for crypto/hash · b40fa82c
      tcharding authored
      SPHINX build emits multiple warnings of kind:
      
      	warning: duplicate section name 'Note'
      
      (when building kernel via make target 'htmldocs')
      
      This is caused by repeated use of comments of form:
      
      	* Note: soau soaeusoa uoe
      
      We can change the format without loss of clarity and clear the build
      warnings.
      
      Add '**[mandatory]**' or '**[optional]**' as kernel-doc field element
      description prefix
      
      This renders in HTML as (prefixes in bold)
      
      final
          [mandatory] Retrieve result from the driver. This function finalizes the
          transformation and retrieves the resulting hash from the driver and
          pushes it back to upper layers. No data processing happens at this
          point unless hardware requires it to finish the transformation (then
          the data buffered by the device driver is processed).

      crypto: x86/salsa20 - cleanup and convert to skcipher API · c9a3ff8f
      Eric Biggers authored
      Convert salsa20-asm from the deprecated "blkcipher" API to the
      "skcipher" API, in the process fixing it up to use the generic helpers.
      This allows removing the salsa20_keysetup() and salsa20_ivsetup()
      assembly functions, which aren't performance critical; the C versions do
      just fine.
      
      This also fixes the same bug that salsa20-generic had, where the state
      array was being maintained directly in the transform context rather than
      on the stack or in the request context.  Thus, if multiple threads used
      the same Salsa20 transform concurrently they produced the wrong results.

      crypto: salsa20-generic - cleanup and convert to skcipher API · b62b3db7
      Eric Biggers authored
      Convert salsa20-generic from the deprecated "blkcipher" API to the
      "skcipher" API, in the process fixing it up to be thread-safe (as the
      crypto API expects) by maintaining each request's state separately from
      the transform context.
      
      Also remove the unnecessary cra_alignmask and tighten validation of the
      key size by accepting only 16 or 32 bytes, not anything in between.
      
      These changes bring the code close to the way chacha20-generic does
      things, so hopefully it will be easier to maintain in the future.
      
      However, the way Salsa20 interprets the IV is still slightly different;
      that was not changed.

      crypto: aes-generic - build with -Os on gcc-7+ · 148b974d
      Arnd Bergmann authored
      While testing other changes, I discovered that gcc-7.2.1 produces badly
      optimized code for aes_encrypt/aes_decrypt. This is especially true when
      CONFIG_UBSAN_SANITIZE_ALL is enabled, where it leads to extremely
      large stack usage that in turn might cause kernel stack overflows:
      
      crypto/aes_generic.c: In function 'aes_encrypt':
      crypto/aes_generic.c:1371:1: warning: the frame size of 4880 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]
      crypto/aes_generic.c: In function 'aes_decrypt':
      crypto/aes_generic.c:1441:1: warning: the frame size of 4864 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]
      
      I verified that this problem exists on all architectures that are
      supported by gcc-7.2, though arm64 in particular is less affected than
      the others. I also found that gcc-7.1 and gcc-8 do not show the extreme
      stack usage but still produce worse code than earlier versions for this
      file, apparently because of optimization passes that generally provide
      a substantial improvement in object code quality but understandably fail
      to find any shortcuts in the AES algorithm.
      
      Possible workarounds include
      
      a) disabling -ftree-pre and -ftree-sra optimizations, this was an earlier
         patch I tried, which reliably fixed the stack usage, but caused a
         serious performance regression in some versions, as later testing
         found.
      
      b) disabling UBSAN on this file or all ciphers, as suggested by Ard
         Biesheuvel. This would lead to massively better crypto performance in
         UBSAN-enabled kernels and avoid the stack usage, but there is a concern
         over whether we should exclude arbitrary files from UBSAN at all.
      
      c) Forcing the optimization level in a different way. Similar to a),
         but rather than deselecting specific optimization stages,
         this now uses "gcc -Os" for this file, regardless of the
         CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE/SIZE option. This is a reliable
         workaround for the stack consumption on all architecture, and I've
         retested the performance results now on x86, cycles/byte (lower is
         better) for cbc(aes-generic) with 256 bit keys:
      
      			-O2     -Os
      	gcc-6.3.1	14.9	15.1
      	gcc-7.0.1	14.7	15.3
      	gcc-7.1.1	15.3	14.7
      	gcc-7.2.1	16.8	15.9
      	gcc-8.0.0	15.5	15.6
      
      This implements the option c) by enabling forcing -Os on all compiler
      versions starting with gcc-7.1. As a workaround for PR83356, it would
      only be needed for gcc-7.2+ with UBSAN enabled, but since it also shows
      better performance on gcc-7.1 without UBSAN, it seems appropriate to
      use the faster version here as well.
      
      Side note: during testing, I also played with the AES code in libressl,
      which had a similar performance regression from gcc-6 to gcc-7.2,
      but was three times slower overall. It might be interesting to
      investigate that further and possibly port the Linux implementation
      into that.

      crypto: aead - prevent using AEADs without setting key · dc26c17f
      Eric Biggers authored
      Similar to what was done for the hash API, update the AEAD API to track
      whether each transform has been keyed, and reject encryption/decryption
      if a key is needed but one hasn't been set.
      
      This isn't quite as important as the equivalent fix for the hash API
      because AEADs always require a key, so are unlikely to be used without
      one.  Still, tracking the key will prevent accidental unkeyed use.
      algif_aead also had to track the key anyway, so the new flag replaces
      that and slightly simplifies the algif_aead implementation.

      crypto: hash - prevent using keyed hashes without setting key · 9fa68f62
      Eric Biggers authored
      Currently, almost none of the keyed hash algorithms check whether a key
      has been set before proceeding.  Some algorithms are okay with this and
      will effectively just use a key of all 0's or some other bogus default.
      However, others will severely break, as demonstrated using
      "hmac(sha3-512-generic)", the unkeyed use of which causes a kernel crash
      via a (potentially exploitable) stack buffer overflow.
      
      A while ago, this problem was solved for AF_ALG by pairing each hash
      transform with a 'has_key' bool.  However, there are still other places
      in the kernel where userspace can specify an arbitrary hash algorithm by
      name, and the kernel uses it as unkeyed hash without checking whether it
      is really unkeyed.  Examples of this include:
      
          - KEYCTL_DH_COMPUTE, via the KDF extension
          - dm-verity
          - dm-crypt, via the ESSIV support
          - dm-integrity, via the "internal hash" mode with no key given
          - drbd (Distributed Replicated Block Device)
      
      This bug is especially bad for KEYCTL_DH_COMPUTE as that requires no
      privileges to call.
      
      Fix the bug for all users by adding a flag CRYPTO_TFM_NEED_KEY to the
      ->crt_flags of each hash transform that indicates whether the transform
      still needs to be keyed or not.  Then, make the hash init, import, and
      digest functions return -ENOKEY if the key is still needed.
      
      The new flag also replaces the 'has_key' bool which algif_hash was
      previously using, thereby simplifying the algif_hash implementation.
