crypto: algapi - use common mechanism for inheriting flags

2020-07-16T11:49:08+00:00

The flag CRYPTO_ALG_ASYNC is "inherited" in the sense that when a
template is instantiated, the template will have CRYPTO_ALG_ASYNC set if
any of the algorithms it uses has CRYPTO_ALG_ASYNC set.

We'd like to add a second flag (CRYPTO_ALG_ALLOCATES_MEMORY) that gets
"inherited" in the same way.  This is difficult because the handling of
CRYPTO_ALG_ASYNC is hardcoded everywhere.  Address this by:

  - Add CRYPTO_ALG_INHERITED_FLAGS, which contains the set of flags that
    have these inheritance semantics.

  - Add crypto_algt_inherited_mask(), for use by template ->create()
    methods.  It returns any of these flags that the user asked to be
    unset and thus must be passed in the 'mask' to crypto_grab_*().

  - Also modify crypto_check_attr_type() to handle computing the 'mask'
    so that most templates can just use this.

  - Make crypto_grab_*() propagate these flags to the template instance
    being created so that templates don't have to do this themselves.

Make crypto/simd.c propagate these flags too, since it "wraps" another
algorithm, similar to a template.

crypto: cryptd - simplify error handling in cryptd_create_*()

2020-03-06T01:28:22+00:00

Simplify the error handling in the various cryptd_create_*() functions
by taking advantage of crypto_grab_*() now handling an ERR_PTR() name
and by taking advantage of crypto_drop_*() now accepting (as a no-op) a
spawn that hasn't been grabbed yet.

crypto: cryptd - convert to new way of freeing instances

2020-01-09T03:30:57+00:00

Convert the "cryptd" template to the new way of freeing instances, where
a ->free() method is installed to the instance struct itself.  This
replaces the weakly-typed method crypto_template::free().

This will allow removing support for the old way of freeing instances.

Note that the 'default' case in cryptd_free() was already unreachable.
So, we aren't missing anything by keeping only the ahash and aead parts.

crypto: cryptd - use crypto_grab_shash() and simplify error paths

2020-01-09T03:30:55+00:00

Make the cryptd template (in the hash case) use the new function
crypto_grab_shash() to initialize its shash spawn.

This is needed to make all spawns be initialized in a consistent way.

This required making cryptd_create_hash() allocate the instance directly
rather than use cryptd_alloc_instance().

Also simplify the error handling by taking advantage of crypto_drop_*()
now accepting (as a no-op) spawns that haven't been initialized yet, and
by taking advantage of crypto_grab_*() now handling ERR_PTR() names.

crypto: aead - pass instance to crypto_grab_aead()

2020-01-09T03:30:54+00:00

Initializing a crypto_aead_spawn currently requires:

1. Set spawn->base.inst to point to the instance.
2. Call crypto_grab_aead().

But there's no reason for these steps to be separate, and in fact this
unneeded complication has caused at least one bug, the one fixed by
commit 6db43410179b ("crypto: adiantum - initialize crypto_spawn::inst")

So just make crypto_grab_aead() take the instance as an argument.

To keep the function calls from getting too unwieldy due to this extra
argument, also introduce a 'mask' variable into the affected places
which weren't already using one.

crypto: remove propagation of CRYPTO_TFM_RES_* flags

2020-01-09T03:30:53+00:00

The CRYPTO_TFM_RES_* flags were apparently meant as a way to make the
->setkey() functions provide more information about errors.  But these
flags weren't actually being used or tested, and in many cases they
weren't being set correctly anyway.  So they've now been removed.

Also, if someone ever actually needs to start better distinguishing
->setkey() errors (which is somewhat unlikely, as this has been unneeded
for a long time), we'd be much better off just defining different return
values, like -EINVAL if the key is invalid for the algorithm vs.
-EKEYREJECTED if the key was rejected by a policy like "no weak keys".
That would be much simpler, less error-prone, and easier to test.

So just remove CRYPTO_TFM_RES_MASK and all the unneeded logic that
propagates these flags around.

crypto: skcipher - remove the "blkcipher" algorithm type

2019-11-01T05:38:32+00:00

Now that all "blkcipher" algorithms have been converted to "skcipher",
remove the blkcipher algorithm type.

The skcipher (symmetric key cipher) algorithm type was introduced a few
years ago to replace both blkcipher and ablkcipher (synchronous and
asynchronous block cipher).  The advantages of skcipher include:

  - A much less confusing name, since none of these algorithm types have
    ever actually been for raw block ciphers, but rather for all
    length-preserving encryption modes including block cipher modes of
    operation, stream ciphers, and other length-preserving modes.

  - It unified blkcipher and ablkcipher into a single algorithm type
    which supports both synchronous and asynchronous implementations.
    Note, blkcipher already operated only on scatterlists, so the fact
    that skcipher does too isn't a regression in functionality.

  - Better type safety by using struct skcipher_alg, struct
    crypto_skcipher, etc. instead of crypto_alg, crypto_tfm, etc.

  - It sometimes simplifies the implementations of algorithms.

Also, the blkcipher API was no longer being tested.

crypto: cryptd - Use refcount_t for refcount

2019-08-15T11:52:13+00:00

Reference counters are preferred to use refcount_t instead of
atomic_t.
This is because the implementation of refcount_t can prevent
overflows and detect possible use-after-free.
So convert atomic_t ref counters to refcount_t.
