Normally we wait for the socket to buffer up the whole record
before we service it. If the socket has a tiny buffer, however,
we read out the data sooner, to prevent connection stalls.
Make sure that we abort the connection when we find out late
that the record is actually invalid. Retrying the parsing is
fine in itself but since we copy some more data each time
before we parse we can overflow the allocated skb space.

Constructing a scenario in which we're under pressure without
enough data in the socket to parse the length upfront is quite
hard. syzbot figured out a way to do this by serving us the header
in small OOB sends, and then filling in the recvbuf with a large
normal send.

Make sure that tls_rx_msg_size() aborts strp, if we reach
an invalid record there's really no way to recover.

<title>tls: handle data disappearing from under the TLS ULP</title>

TLS expects that it owns the receive queue of the TCP socket.
This cannot be guaranteed in case the reader of the TCP socket
entered before the TLS ULP was installed, or uses some non-standard
read API (eg. zerocopy ones). Replace the WARN_ON() and a buggy
early exit (which leaves anchor pointing to a freed skb) with real
error handling. Wipe the parsing state and tell the reader to retry.

We already reload the anchor every time we (re)acquire the socket lock,
so the only condition we need to avoid is an out of bounds read
(not having enough bytes in the socket for previously parsed record len).

If some data was read from under TLS but there's enough in the queue
we'll reload and decrypt what is most likely not a valid TLS record.
Leading to some undefined behavior from TLS perspective (corrupting
a stream? missing an alert? missing an attack?) but no kernel crash
should take place.

<title>tls: implement rekey for TLS1.3</title>

This adds the possibility to change the key and IV when using
TLS1.3. Changing the cipher or TLS version is not supported.

Once we have updated the RX key, we can unblock the receive side. If
the rekey fails, the context is unmodified and userspace is free to
retry the update or close the socket.

This change only affects tls_sw, since 1.3 offload isn't supported.

tls_sk_poll is called without locking the socket, and needs to read
strp-&gt;msg_ready (via tls_strp_msg_ready). Convert msg_ready to a bool
and use READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE where needed. The remaining reads are
only performed when the socket is locked.

<title>tls: don't reset prot-&gt;aad_size and prot-&gt;tail_size for TLS_HW</title>

<content type='text'>
Prior to commit 1a074f7618e8 ("tls: also use init_prot_info in
tls_set_device_offload"), setting TLS_HW on TX didn't touch
prot-&gt;aad_size and prot-&gt;tail_size. They are set to 0 during context
allocation (tls_prot_info is embedded in tls_context, kzalloc'd by
tls_ctx_create).

When the RX key is configured, tls_set_sw_offload is called (for both
TLS_SW and TLS_HW). If the TX key is configured in TLS_HW mode after
the RX key has been installed, init_prot_info will now overwrite the
correct values of aad_size and tail_size, breaking SW decryption and
causing -EBADMSG errors to be returned to userspace.

Since TLS_HW doesn't use aad_size and tail_size at all (for TLS1.2,
tail_size is always 0, and aad_size is equal to TLS_HEADER_SIZE +
rec_seq_size), we can simply drop this hunk.

It's not really needed since we end up refetching it as tls_ctx. We
can also remove the NULL check, since we have already dereferenced ctx
in do_tls_setsockopt_conf.

While at it, fix up the reverse xmas tree ordering.

- add nonce, usually equal to iv_size but not for chacha
 - add offsets into the crypto_info for each field
 - add algorithm name
 - add offloadable flag

Also add helpers to access each field of a crypto_info struct
described by a tls_cipher_desc.
