* crypto: algif_aead - Temporarily disable all AEAD algorithmsHerbert Xu2015-06-221-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | As the AEAD conversion is still ongoing, we do not yet wish to export legacy AEAD implementations to user-space, as their calling convention will change. This patch actually disables all AEAD algorithms because some of them (e.g., cryptd) will need to be modified to propagate this flag. Subsequent patches will reenable them on an individual basis.

* crypto: api - Add CRYPTO_MINALIGN_ATTR to struct crypto_algHerbert Xu2015-06-191-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The struct crypto_alg is embedded into various type-specific structs such as aead_alg. This is then used as part of instances such as struct aead_instance. It is also embedded into the generic struct crypto_instance. In order to ensure that struct aead_instance can be converted to struct crypto_instance when necessary, we need to ensure that crypto_alg is aligned properly. This patch adds an alignment attribute to struct crypto_alg to ensure this. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

| | | | | | | | | | | This patch is the first step in the introduction of a new AEAD alg type. Unlike normal conversions this patch only renames the existing aead_alg structure because there are external references to it. Those references will be removed after this patch.

* crypto: aead - Convert top level interface to new styleHerbert Xu2015-05-131-441/+1Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch converts the top-level aead interface to the new style. All user-level AEAD interface code have been moved into crypto/aead.h. The allocation/free functions have switched over to the new way of allocating tfms. This patch also removes the double indrection on setkey so the indirection now exists only at the alg level. Apart from these there are no user-visible changes. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

* crypto: api - prevent helper ciphers from being usedStephan Mueller2015-03-311-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Several hardware related cipher implementations are implemented as follows: a "helper" cipher implementation is registered with the kernel crypto API. Such helper ciphers are never intended to be called by normal users. In some cases, calling them via the normal crypto API may even cause failures including kernel crashes. In a normal case, the "wrapping" ciphers that use the helpers ensure that these helpers are invoked such that they cannot cause any calamity. Considering the AF_ALG user space interface, unprivileged users can call all ciphers registered with the crypto API, including these helper ciphers that are not intended to be called directly. That means, with AF_ALG user space may invoke these helper ciphers and may cause undefined states or side effects. To avoid any potential side effects with such helpers, the patch prevents the helpers to be called directly. A new cipher type flag is added: CRYPTO_ALG_INTERNAL. This flag shall be used to mark helper ciphers. These ciphers can only be used if the caller invoke the cipher with CRYPTO_ALG_INTERNAL in the type and mask field.

Due to historical reasons, we have some BUG code in bug.h and some in kernel.h -- i.e. the support for BUILD_BUG in linux/kernel.h predates the addition of linux/bug.h, but old code in kernel.h wasn't moved to bug.h at that time. As a band-aid, kernel.h was including <asm/bug.h> to pseudo link them. This has caused confusion[1] and general yuck/WTF[2] reactions. Here is an example that violates the principle of least surprise: CC lib/string.o lib/string.c: In function 'strlcat': lib/string.c:225:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'BUILD_BUG_ON' make[2]: *** [lib/string.o] Error 1 $ $ grep linux/bug.h lib/string.c #include <linux/bug.h> $ We've included <linux/bug.h> for the BUG infrastructure and yet we still get a compile fail! [We've not kernel.h for BUILD_BUG_ON.] Ugh - very confusing for someone who is new to kernel development. With the above in mind, the goals of this changeset are: 1) find and fix any include/*.h files that were relying on the implicit presence of BUG code. 2) find and fix any C files that were consuming kernel.h and hence relying on implicitly getting some/all BUG code. 3) Move the BUG related code living in kernel.h to <linux/bug.h> 4) remove the asm/bug.h from kernel.h to finally break the chain. During development, the order was more like 3-4, build-test, 1-2. But to ensure that git history for bisect doesn't get needless build failures introduced, the commits have been reorderd to fix the problem areas in advance.

| * BUG: headers with BUG/BUG_ON etc. need linux/bug.hPaul Gortmaker2012-03-041-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a header file is making use of BUG, BUG_ON, BUILD_BUG_ON, or any other BUG variant in a static inline (i.e. not in a #define) then that header really should be including <linux/bug.h> and not just expecting it to be implicitly present. We can make this change risk-free, since if the files using these headers didn't have exposure to linux/bug.h already, they would have been causing compile failures/warnings.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The <linux/crypto.h> (which is in turn in common headers like tcp.h) wants to use module_name() in an inline fcn. But having all of <linux/module.h> along for the ride is overkill and slows down compiles by a measureable amount, since it in turn includes lots of headers. Since the inline is never used anywhere in the kernel[1], we can just remove it, and then also remove the module.h include as well. In all the many crypto modules, there were some relying on crypto.h including module.h -- for them we now explicitly call out module.h for inclusion. [1] git grep shows some staging drivers also define the same static inline, but they also never ever use it. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>

* crypto: compress - Add pcomp interfaceGeert Uytterhoeven2009-03-041-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current "comp" crypto interface supports one-shot (de)compression only, i.e. the whole data buffer to be (de)compressed must be passed at once, and the whole (de)compressed data buffer will be received at once. In several use-cases (e.g. compressed file systems that store files in big compressed blocks), this workflow is not suitable. Furthermore, the "comp" type doesn't provide for the configuration of (de)compression parameters, and always allocates workspace memory for both compression and decompression, which may waste memory. To solve this, add a "pcomp" partial (de)compression interface that provides the following operations: - crypto_compress_{init,update,final}() for compression, - crypto_decompress_{init,update,final}() for decompression, - crypto_{,de}compress_setup(), to configure (de)compression parameters (incl. allocating workspace memory). The (de)compression methods take a struct comp_request, which was mimicked after the z_stream object in zlib, and contains buffer pointer and length pairs for input and output. The setup methods take an opaque parameter pointer and length pair. Parameters are supposed to be encoded using netlink attributes, whose meanings depend on the actual (name of the) (de)compression algorithm.

* crypto: api - Fix crypto_alloc_tfm/create_create_tfm return conventionHerbert Xu2009-02-181-3/+0Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is based on a report and patch by Geert Uytterhoeven. The functions crypto_alloc_tfm and create_create_tfm return a pointer that needs to be adjusted by the caller when successful and otherwise an error value. This means that the caller has to check for the error and only perform the adjustment if the pointer returned is valid. Since all callers want to make the adjustment and we know how to adjust it ourselves, it's much easier to just return adjusted pointer directly. The only caveat is that we have to return a void * instead of struct crypto_tfm *. However, this isn't that bad because both of these functions are for internal use only (by types code like shash.c, not even algorithms code). This patch also moves crypto_alloc_tfm into crypto/internal.h (crypto_create_tfm is already there) to reflect this. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

* crypto: hash - Add import/export interfaceHerbert Xu2008-12-251-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | It is often useful to save the partial state of a hash function so that it can be used as a base for two or more computations. The most prominent example is HMAC where all hashes start from a base determined by the key.

* crypto: hash - Add shash interfaceHerbert Xu2008-12-251-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The shash interface replaces the current synchronous hash interface. It improves over hash in two ways. Firstly shash is reentrant, meaning that the same tfm may be used by two threads simultaneously as all hashing state is stored in a local descriptor. The other enhancement is that shash no longer takes scatter list entries. This is because shash is specifically designed for synchronous algorithms and as such scatter lists are unnecessary. All existing hash users will be converted to shash once the algorithms have been completely converted. There is also a new finup function that combines update with final. This will be extended to ahash once the algorithm conversion is done. This is also the first time that an algorithm type has their own registration function. Existing algorithm types will be converted to this way in due course. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
* crypto: api - Rebirth of crypto_alloc_tfmHerbert Xu2008-12-251-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch reintroduces a completely revamped crypto_alloc_tfm. The biggest change is that we now take two crypto_type objects when allocating a tfm, a frontend and a backend. In fact this simply formalises what we've been doing behind the API's back. For example, as it stands crypto_alloc_ahash may use an actual ahash algorithm or a crypto_hash algorithm. Putting this in the API allows us to do this much more cleanly. The existing types will be converted across gradually. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
* crypto: api - Move type exit function into crypto_tfmHerbert Xu2008-12-251-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The type exit function needs to undo any allocations done by the type init function. However, the type init function may differ depending on the upper-level type of the transform (e.g., a crypto_blkcipher instantiated as a crypto_ablkcipher). So we need to move the exit function out of the lower-level structure and into crypto_tfm itself. As it stands this is a no-op since nobody uses exit functions at all. However, all cases where a lower-level type is instantiated as a different upper-level type (such as blkcipher as ablkcipher) will be converted such that they allocate the underlying transform and use that instead of casting (e.g., crypto_ablkcipher casted into crypto_blkcipher). That will need to use a different exit function depending on the upper-level type. This patch also allows the type init/exit functions to call (or not) cra_init/cra_exit instead of always calling them from the top level. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
* crypto: rng - RNG interface and implementationNeil Horman2008-08-291-0/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a random number generator interface as well as a cryptographic pseudo-random number generator based on AES. It is meant to be used in cases where a deterministic CPRNG is required. One of the first applications will be as an input in the IPsec IV generation process.

* crypto: api - Use test infrastructureHerbert Xu2008-08-291-0/+8
| | | | | | | | This patch makes use of the new testing infrastructure by requiring algorithms to pass a run-time test before they're made available to users. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
* crypto: cryptomgr - Add test infrastructureHerbert Xu2008-08-291-0/+2
| | | | | | | | This patch moves the newly created alg_test infrastructure into cryptomgr. This shall allow us to use it for testing at algorithm registrations. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
