crypto: algapi - create function to add request in front of queue

2020-05-08T05:30:40Z

Add crypto_enqueue_request_head function that enqueues a request in front of queue. This will be used in crypto-engine, on error path. In case a request was not executed by hardware, enqueue it back in front of queue (to keep the order of requests). Signed-off-by: Iuliana Prodan Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: algapi - remove crypto_template::{alloc,free}()

2020-01-09T03:30:58Z

Now that all templates provide a ->create() method which creates an instance, installs a strongly-typed ->free() method directly to it, and registers it, the older ->alloc() and ->free() methods in 'struct crypto_template' are no longer used. Remove them. Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: algapi - fold crypto_init_spawn() into crypto_grab_spawn()

2020-01-09T03:30:57Z

Now that crypto_init_spawn() is only called by crypto_grab_spawn(), simplify things by moving its functionality into crypto_grab_spawn(). In the process of doing this, also be more consistent about when the spawn and instance are updated, and remove the crypto_spawn::dropref flag since now it's always set.

crypto: algapi - remove obsoleted instance creation helpers

2020-01-09T03:30:57Z

Remove lots of helper functions that were previously used for instantiating crypto templates, but are now unused: - crypto_get_attr_alg() and similar functions looked up an inner algorithm directly from a template parameter. These were replaced with getting the algorithm's name, then calling crypto_grab_*(). - crypto_init_spawn2() and similar functions initialized a spawn, given an algorithm. Similarly, these were replaced with crypto_grab_*(). - crypto_alloc_instance() and similar functions allocated an instance with a single spawn, given the inner algorithm. These aren't useful anymore since crypto_grab_*() need the instance allocated first. Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: cipher - make crypto_spawn_cipher() take a crypto_cipher_spawn

2020-01-09T03:30:57Z

Now that all users of single-block cipher spawns have been converted to use 'struct crypto_cipher_spawn' rather than the less specifically typed 'struct crypto_spawn', make crypto_spawn_cipher() take a pointer to a 'struct crypto_cipher_spawn' rather than a 'struct crypto_spawn'.

crypto: cipher - introduce crypto_cipher_spawn and crypto_grab_cipher()

2020-01-09T03:30:55Z

Currently, "cipher" (single-block cipher) spawns are usually initialized by using crypto_get_attr_alg() to look up the algorithm, then calling crypto_init_spawn(). In one case, crypto_grab_spawn() is used directly. The former way is different from how skcipher, aead, and akcipher spawns are initialized (they use crypto_grab_*()), and for no good reason. This difference introduces unnecessary complexity. The crypto_grab_*() functions used to have some problems, like not holding a reference to the algorithm and requiring the caller to initialize spawn->base.inst. But those problems are fixed now. Also, the cipher spawns are not strongly typed; e.g., the API requires that the user manually specify the flags CRYPTO_ALG_TYPE_CIPHER and CRYPTO_ALG_TYPE_MASK. Though the "cipher" algorithm type itself isn't yet strongly typed, we can start by making the spawns strongly typed. So, let's introduce a new 'struct crypto_cipher_spawn', and functions crypto_grab_cipher() and crypto_drop_cipher() to grab and drop them. Later patches will convert all cipher spawns to use these, then make crypto_spawn_cipher() take 'struct crypto_cipher_spawn' as well, instead of a bare 'struct crypto_spawn' as it currently does.

crypto: algapi - pass instance to crypto_grab_spawn()

2020-01-09T03:30:54Z

Currently, crypto_spawn::inst is first used temporarily to pass the instance to crypto_grab_spawn(). Then crypto_init_spawn() overwrites it with crypto_spawn::next, which shares the same union. Finally, crypto_spawn::inst is set again when the instance is registered. Make this less convoluted by just passing the instance as an argument to crypto_grab_spawn() instead.

crypto: api - Retain alg refcount in crypto_grab_spawn

2019-12-27T10:18:03Z

This patch changes crypto_grab_spawn to retain the reference count on the algorithm. This is because the caller needs to access the algorithm parameters and without the reference count the algorithm can be freed at any time. The reference count will be subsequently dropped by the crypto API once the instance has been registered. The helper crypto_drop_spawn will also conditionally drop the reference count depending on whether it has been registered. Note that the code is actually added to crypto_init_spawn. However, unless the caller activates this by setting spawn->dropref beforehand then nothing happens. The only caller that sets dropref is currently crypto_grab_spawn. Once all legacy users of crypto_init_spawn disappear, then we can kill the dropref flag. Internally each instance will maintain a list of its spawns prior to registration. This memory used by this list is shared with other fields that are only used after registration. In order for this to work a new flag spawn->registered is added to indicate whether spawn->inst can be used.

crypto: algapi - make unregistration functions return void

2019-12-20T06:58:35Z

Some of the algorithm unregistration functions return -ENOENT when asked to unregister a non-registered algorithm, while others always return 0 or always return void. But no users check the return value, except for two of the bulk unregistration functions which print a message on error but still always return 0 to their caller, and crypto_del_alg() which calls crypto_unregister_instance() which always returns 0. Since unregistering a non-registered algorithm is always a kernel bug but there isn't anything callers should do to handle this situation at runtime, let's simplify things by making all the unregistration functions return void, and moving the error message into crypto_unregister_alg() and upgrading it to a WARN().

crypto: api - Do not zap spawn->alg

2019-12-11T08:48:39Z

Currently when a spawn is removed we will zap its alg field. This is racy because the spawn could belong to an unregistered instance which may dereference the spawn->alg field. This patch fixes this by keeping spawn->alg constant and instead adding a new spawn->dead field to indicate that a spawn is going away. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu
