<title>lib/mpi: kunmap after finishing accessing buffer</title>

<id>dea3eb8b452e36cf2dd572b0a797915ccf452ae6</id>
<content type='text'>
Using sg_miter_start and sg_miter_next, the buffer of an SG is kmap'ed
to *buff. The current code calls sg_miter_stop (and thus kunmap) on the
SG entry before the last access of *buff.

The patch moves the sg_miter_stop call after the last access to *buff to
ensure that the memory pointed to by *buff is still mapped.

Use just @ to denote comments which works with gcc and clang.
Otherwise clang reports an escape sequence error:
  error: invalid % escape in inline assembly string

Use %0-%3 as operand references, this avoids:
  error: invalid operand in inline asm: 'umull ${1:r}, ${0:r}, ${2:r}, ${3:r}'

Also remove superfluous casts on output operands to avoid warnings
such as:

<title>mpi: Fix NULL ptr dereference in mpi_powm() [ver #3]</title>

<content type='text'>
This fixes CVE-2016-8650.

If mpi_powm() is given a zero exponent, it wants to immediately return
either 1 or 0, depending on the modulus.  However, if the result was
initalised with zero limb space, no limbs space is allocated and a
NULL-pointer exception ensues.

Fix this by allocating a minimal amount of limb space for the result when
the 0-exponent case when the result is 1 and not touching the limb space
when the result is 0.

This affects the use of RSA keys and X.509 certificates that carry them.

Currently the mpi SG helpers use sg_virt which is completely
broken.  It happens to work with normal kernel memory but will
fail with anything that is not linearly mapped.

This patch fixes this by using the SG iterator helpers.

Every implementation of RSA that we have naturally generates
output with leading zeroes.  The one and only user of RSA,
pkcs1pad wants to have those leading zeroes in place, in fact
because they are currently absent it has to write those zeroes
itself.

So we shouldn't be stripping leading zeroes in the first place.
In fact this patch makes rsa-generic produce output with fixed
length so that pkcs1pad does not need to do any extra work.

This patch also changes DH to use the new interface.

In fact this patch makes rsa-generic produce output with fixed
length so that pkcs1pad does not need to do any extra work.

This patch also changes DH to use the new interface.

mpi_read_from_buffer() and mpi_read_raw_data() do basically the same thing
except that the former extracts the number of payload bits from the first
two bytes of the input buffer.

Besides that, the data copying logic is exactly the same.

Replace the open coded buffer to MPI instance conversion by a call to
mpi_read_raw_data().

<title>lib/mpi: mpi_read_from_buffer(): sanitize short buffer printk</title>

The first two bytes of the input buffer encode its expected length and
mpi_read_from_buffer() prints a console message if the given buffer is too
short.

However, there are some oddities with how this message is printed:
- It is printed at the default loglevel. This is different from the
  one used in the case that the first two bytes' value is unsupportedly
  large, i.e. KERN_INFO.
- The format specifier '%d' is used for unsigned ints.
- It prints the values of nread and *ret_nread. This is redundant since
  the former is always the latter + 1.

Clean this up as follows:
- Use pr_info() rather than printk() with no loglevel.
- Use the format specifiers '%u' in place if '%d'.
- Do not print the redundant 'nread' but the more helpful 'nbytes' value.

<title>lib/mpi: mpi_read_from_buffer(): return -EINVAL upon too short buffer</title>

Currently, if the input buffer is shorter than the expected length as
indicated by its first two bytes, an MPI instance of this expected length
will be allocated and filled with as much data as is available. The rest
will remain uninitialized.

Instead of leaving this condition undetected, an error code should be
reported to the caller.

Since this situation indicates that the input buffer's first two bytes,
encoding the number of expected bits, are garbled, -EINVAL is appropriate
here.

If the input buffer is shorter than indicated by its first two bytes,
make mpi_read_from_buffer() return -EINVAL.
Get rid of the 'nread' variable: with the new semantics, the total number
of bytes read from the input buffer is known in advance.
