[ Upstream commit 3fc89adb9fa4beff31374a4bf50b3d099d88ae83 ]

Currently a number of Crypto API operations may fail when a signal
occurs.  This causes nasty problems as the caller of those operations
are often not in a good position to restart the operation.

In fact there is currently no need for those operations to be
interrupted by user signals at all.  All we need is for them to
be killable.

This patch replaces the relevant calls of signal_pending with
fatal_signal_pending, and wait_for_completion_interruptible with
wait_for_completion_killable, respectively.

commit 5d26a105b5a73e5635eae0629b42fa0a90e07b7b upstream.

This prefixes all crypto module loading with "crypto-" so we never run
the risk of exposing module auto-loading to userspace via a crypto API,
as demonstrated by Mathias Krause:

<content type='text'>
crypto_larval_lookup should only return a larval if it created one.
Any larval created by another entity must be processed through
crypto_larval_wait before being returned.

Otherwise this will lead to a larval being killed twice, which
will most likely lead to a crash.

&gt; 
&gt; My assumption is that the following is happening: the minimal SCTP
&gt; tool runs under ``echo 1 &gt; /proc/sys/net/sctp/auth_enable'', hence
&gt; it's making use of crypto_alloc_hash() via sctp_auth_init_hmacs().
&gt; It forks itself, heavily allocates, binds, listens and waits in
&gt; accept on sctp sockets, and then randomly kills some of them (no
&gt; need for an actual client in this case to hit this). Then, again,
&gt; allocating, binding, etc, and then killing child processes.
&gt; 
&gt; The problem that might be happening here is that cryptomgr requests
&gt; the module to probe/load through cryptomgr_schedule_probe(), but
&gt; before the thread handler cryptomgr_probe() returns, we return from
&gt; the wait_for_completion_interruptible() function and probably already
&gt; have cleared up larval, thus we run into a NULL pointer dereference
&gt; when in cryptomgr_probe() complete_all() is being called.
&gt; 
&gt; If we wait with wait_for_completion() instead, this panic will not
&gt; occur anymore. This is valid, because in case a signal is pending,
&gt; cryptomgr_probe() returns from probing anyway with properly calling
&gt; complete_all().

The use of wait_for_completion_interruptible is intentional so that
we don't lock up the thread if a bug causes us to never wake up.

This bug is caused by the helper thread using the larval without
holding a reference count on it.  If the helper thread completes
after the original thread requesting for help has gone away and
destroyed the larval, then we get the crash above.

So the fix is to hold a reference count on the larval.

As the extsize and init_tfm functions belong to the frontend the
frontend argument is superfluous.

This patch removes the implementation of hash and digest now that
no algorithms use them anymore.  The interface though will remain
until the users are converted across.

This patch adds the helper crypto_attr_alg2 which is similar to
crypto_attr_alg but takes an extra frontend argument.  This is
intended to be used by new style algorithm types such as shash.
