Linus Torvalds 1a263ae60b gcc-10: avoid shadowing standard library 'free()' in crypto
gcc-10 has started warning about conflicting types for a few new
built-in functions, particularly 'free()'.

This results in warnings like:

   crypto/xts.c:325:13: warning: conflicting types for built-in function ‘free’; expected ‘void(void *)’ [-Wbuiltin-declaration-mismatch]

because the crypto layer had its local freeing functions called
'free()'.

Gcc-10 is in the wrong here, since that function is marked 'static', and
thus there is no chance of confusion with any standard library function
namespace.

But the simplest thing to do is to just use a different name here, and
avoid this gcc mis-feature.

[ Side note: gcc knowing about 'free()' is in itself not the
  mis-feature: the semantics of 'free()' are special enough that a
  compiler can validly do special things when seeing it.

  So the mis-feature here is that gcc thinks that 'free()' is some
  restricted name, and you can't shadow it as a local static function.

  Making the special 'free()' semantics be a function attribute rather
  than tied to the name would be the much better model ]

Eric Biggers 732e540953 crypto: xts - simplify error handling in ->create()
Simplify the error handling in the XTS template's ->create() function by

Eric Biggers b9f76dddb1 crypto: skcipher - pass instance to crypto_grab_skcipher()
Initializing a crypto_skcipher_spawn currently requires:

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

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 6db4341017 ("crypto: adiantum - initialize crypto_spawn::inst")

So just make crypto_grab_skcipher() 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.

Eric Biggers af5034e8e4 crypto: remove propagation of CRYPTO_TFM_RES_* flags
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.

Eric Biggers c4741b2305 crypto: run initcalls for generic implementations earlier
Use subsys_initcall for registration of all templates and generic
algorithm implementations, rather than module_init.  Then change
cryptomgr to use arch_initcall, to place it before the subsys_initcalls.

This is needed so that when both a generic and optimized implementation
of an algorithm are built into the kernel (not loadable modules), the
generic implementation is registered before the optimized one.
Otherwise, the self-tests for the optimized implementation are unable to
allocate the generic implementation for the new comparison fuzz tests.

Note that on arm, a side effect of this change is that self-tests for
generic implementations may run before the unaligned access handler has
been installed.  So, unaligned accesses will crash the kernel.  This is
arguably a good thing as it makes it easier to detect that type of bug.

Ondrej Mosnacek 78105c7e76 crypto: xts - Drop use of auxiliary buffer
Since commit acb9b159c7 ("crypto: gf128mul - define gf128mul_x_* in
gf128mul.h"), the gf128mul_x_*() functions are very fast and therefore
caching the computed XTS tweaks has only negligible advantage over
computing them twice.

In fact, since the current caching implementation limits the size of
the calls to the child ecb(...) algorithm to PAGE_SIZE (usually 4096 B),
it is often actually slower than the simple recomputing implementation.

This patch simplifies the XTS template to recompute the XTS tweaks from
scratch in the second pass and thus also removes the need to allocate a
dynamic buffer using kmalloc().

As discussed at [1], the use of kmalloc causes deadlocks with dm-crypt.

PERFORMANCE RESULTS
I measured time to encrypt/decrypt a memory buffer of varying sizes with
xts(ecb-aes-aesni) using a tool I wrote ([2]) and the results suggest
that after this patch the performance is either better or comparable for
both small and large buffers. Note that there is a lot of noise in the
measurements, but the overall difference is easy to see.

Eric Biggers 9df0eb180c crypto: xts,lrw - fix out-of-bounds write after kmalloc failure
In the generic XTS and LRW algorithms, for input data > 128 bytes, a
temporary buffer is allocated to hold the values to be XOR'ed with the
data before and after encryption or decryption.  If the allocation
fails, the fixed-size buffer embedded in the request buffer is meant to
be used as a fallback --- resulting in more calls to the ECB algorithm,
but still producing the correct result.  However, we weren't correctly
limiting subreq->cryptlen in this case, resulting in pre_crypt()
overrunning the embedded buffer.  Fix this by setting subreq->cryptlen
correctly.

Herbert Xu 89027579bc crypto: xts - Propagate NEED_FALLBACK bit
When we're used as a fallback algorithm, we should propagate
the NEED_FALLBACK bit when searching for the underlying ECB mode.

This just happens to fix a hang too because otherwise the search
may end up loading the same module that triggered this XTS creation.

Herbert Xu f1c131b454 crypto: xts - Convert to skcipher
This patch converts xts over to the skcipher interface.  It also
optimises the implementation to be based on ECB instead of the
underlying cipher.  For compatibility the existing naming scheme
of xts(aes) is maintained as opposed to the more obvious one of
xts(ecb(aes)).

Stephan Mueller 28856a9e52 crypto: xts - consolidate sanity check for keys
The patch centralizes the XTS key check logic into the service function
xts_check_key which is invoked from the different XTS implementations.
With this, the XTS implementations in ARM, ARM64, PPC and S390 have now
a sanity check for the XTS keys similar to the other arches.

In addition, this service function received a check to ensure that the
key != the tweak key which is mandated by FIPS 140-2 IG A.9. As the
check is not present in the standards defining XTS, it is only enforced
in FIPS mode of the kernel.

Kees Cook 4943ba16bb crypto: include crypto- module prefix in template
This adds the module loading prefix "crypto-" to the template lookup
as well.

For example, attempting to load 'vfat(blowfish)' via AF_ALG now correctly
includes the "crypto-" prefix at every level, correctly rejecting "vfat":

	net-pf-38
	algif-hash
	crypto-vfat(blowfish)
	crypto-vfat(blowfish)-all
	crypto-vfat

Sebastian Siewior 6212f2c7f7 [CRYPTO] xts: Use proper alignment
The XTS blockmode uses a copy of the IV which is saved on the stack
and may or may not be properly aligned. If it is not, it will break
hardware cipher like the geode or padlock.
This patch encrypts the IV in place so we don't have to worry about
alignment.

Rik Snel f19f5111c9 [CRYPTO] xts: XTS blockcipher mode implementation without partial blocks
XTS currently considered to be the successor of the LRW mode by the IEEE1619
workgroup. LRW was discarded, because it was not secure if the encyption key
itself is encrypted with LRW.

XTS does not have this problem. The implementation is pretty straightforward,
a new function was added to gf128mul to handle GF(128) elements in ble format.
Four testvectors from the specification
	http://grouper.ieee.org/groups/1619/email/pdf00086.pdf
were added, and they verify on my system.
