After the generation of a local public key, SP800-56A rev 3 section 5.6.2.1.3 mandates a validation of that key with a full validation compliant to section 5.6.2.3.3. Only if the full validation passes, the key is allowed to be used. The patch adds the full key validation compliant to 5.6.2.3.3 and performs the required check on the generated public key.

Rationale: Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate. Deterministic algorithm: For each file: If not .svg: For each line: If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`: For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`: If neither `\bgnu\.org/license`, nor `\bmozilla\.org/MPL\b`: If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions return 200 OK and serve the same content: Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

RNGB block is found in some i.MX6 SoCs - 6SL, 6SLL, 6ULL, 6ULZ. Add corresponding compatible strings. Note: Several NXP SoC from QorIQ family (P1010, P1023, P4080, P3041, P5020) also have a RNGB, however it's part of the CAAM (Cryptograhic Accelerator and Assurance Module) crypto accelerator. In this case, RNGB is managed in the caam driver (drivers/crypto/caam/), since it's tightly related to the caam "job ring" interface, not to mention CAAM internally relying on RNGB as source of randomness. On the other hand, the i.MX6 SoCs with RNGB have a DCP (Data Co-Processor) crypto accelerator and this block and RNGB are independent.

padata_stop() has two callers and is unnecessary in both cases. When pcrypt calls it before padata_free(), it's being unloaded so there are no outstanding padata jobs[0]. When __padata_free() calls it, it's either along the same path or else pcrypt initialization failed, which of course means there are also no outstanding jobs. Removing it simplifies padata and saves text.

padata_start() is only used right after pcrypt allocates an instance with all possible CPUs, when PADATA_INVALID can't happen, so there's no need for a separate "start" step. It can be done during allocation to save text, make using padata easier, and avoid unneeded calls in the future.

clang static analysis flags this error qat_uclo.c:297:3: warning: Attempt to free released memory [unix.Malloc] kfree(*init_tab_base); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ When input *init_tab_base is null, the function allocates memory for the head of the list. When there is problem allocating other list elements the list is unwound and freed. Then a check is made if the list head was allocated and is also freed. Keeping track of the what may need to be freed is the variable 'tail_old'. The unwinding/freeing block is while (tail_old) { mem_init = tail_old->next; kfree(tail_old); tail_old = mem_init; } The problem is that the first element of tail_old is also what was allocated for the list head init_header = kzalloc(sizeof(*init_header), GFP_KERNEL); ... *init_tab_base = init_header; flag = 1; } tail_old = init_header; So *init_tab_base/init_header are freed twice. There is another problem. When the input *init_tab_base is non null the tail_old is calculated by traveling down the list to first non null entry. tail_old = init_header; while (tail_old->next) tail_old = tail_old->next; When the unwinding free happens, the last entry of the input list will be freed. So the freeing needs a general changed. If locally allocated the first element of tail_old is freed, else it is skipped. As a bit of cleanup, reset *init_tab_base if it came in as null.

Introduce a new algorithm flag CRYPTO_ALG_ALLOCATES_MEMORY. If this flag is set, then the driver allocates memory in its request routine. Such drivers are not suitable for disk encryption because GFP_ATOMIC allocation can fail anytime (causing random I/O errors) and GFP_KERNEL allocation can recurse into the block layer, causing a deadlock. For now, this flag is only implemented for some algorithm types. We also assume some usage constraints for it to be meaningful, since there are lots of edge cases the crypto API allows (e.g., misaligned or fragmented scatterlists) that mean that nearly any crypto algorithm can allocate memory in some case. See the comment for details. Also add this flag to CRYPTO_ALG_INHERITED_FLAGS so that when a template is instantiated, this flag is set on the template instance if it is set on any algorithm the instance uses. Based on a patch by Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> (https://lore.kernel.org/r/alpine.LRH.2.02.2006301414580.30526@file01.intranet.prod.int.rdu2.redhat.com).

CRYPTO_ALG_NEED_FALLBACK is handled inconsistently. When it's requested to be clear, some templates propagate that request to child algorithms, while others don't. It's apparently desired for NEED_FALLBACK to be propagated, to avoid deadlocks where a module tries to load itself while it's being initialized, and to avoid unnecessarily complex fallback chains where we have e.g. cbc-aes-$driver falling back to cbc(aes-$driver) where aes-$driver itself falls back to aes-generic, instead of cbc-aes-$driver simply falling back to cbc(aes-generic). There have been a number of fixes to this effect: commit 89027579 ("crypto: xts - Propagate NEED_FALLBACK bit") commit d2c2a85c ("crypto: ctr - Propagate NEED_FALLBACK bit") commit e6c2e65c ("crypto: cbc - Propagate NEED_FALLBACK bit") But it seems that other templates can have the same problems too. To avoid this whack-a-mole, just add NEED_FALLBACK to INHERITED_FLAGS so that it's always inherited.
