Now that fscrypt_add_test_dummy_key() is only called by
setup_file_encryption_key() and not by the individual filesystems,
un-export it.  Also change its prototype to take the
fscrypt_key_specifier directly, as the caller already has it.

<id>urn:sha1:60e463f0be9874692a56a7d419a6e39029b6290d</id>
<content type='text'>
When the key for an inode is not found but the inode is using the
test_dummy_encryption policy, automatically add the
test_dummy_encryption key to the filesystem keyring.  This eliminates
the need for all the individual filesystems to do this at mount time,
which is a bit tricky to clean up from on failure.

Note: this covers the call to fscrypt_find_master_key() from inode key
setup, but not from the fscrypt ioctls.  So, this isn't *exactly* the
same as the key being present from the very beginning.  I think we can
tolerate that, though, since the inode key setup caller is the only one
that actually matters in the context of test_dummy_encryption.

As this code confused Linus [1], pass the super_block as an argument to
fscrypt_put_master_key_activeref().  This removes the need to have the
back-pointer -&gt;mk_sb, so remove that.

Now that the fscrypt_master_key lifetime has been reworked to not be
subject to the quirks of the keyrings subsystem, blk_crypto_evict_key()
no longer gets called after the filesystem has already been unmounted.
Therefore, there is no longer any need to hold extra references to the
filesystem's request_queue(s).  (And these references didn't always do
their intended job anyway, as pinning a request_queue doesn't
necessarily pin the corresponding blk_crypto_profile.)

Stop taking these extra references.  Instead, just pass the super_block
to fscrypt_destroy_inline_crypt_key(), and use it to get the list of
block devices the key needs to be evicted from.

<id>urn:sha1:d7e7b9af104c7b389a0c21eb26532511bce4b510</id>
<content type='text'>
The approach of fs/crypto/ internally managing the fscrypt_master_key
structs as the payloads of "struct key" objects contained in a
"struct key" keyring has outlived its usefulness.  The original idea was
to simplify the code by reusing code from the keyrings subsystem.
However, several issues have arisen that can't easily be resolved:

- When a master key struct is destroyed, blk_crypto_evict_key() must be
  called on any per-mode keys embedded in it.  (This started being the
  case when inline encryption support was added.)  Yet, the keyrings
  subsystem can arbitrarily delay the destruction of keys, even past the
  time the filesystem was unmounted.  Therefore, currently there is no
  easy way to call blk_crypto_evict_key() when a master key is
  destroyed.  Currently, this is worked around by holding an extra
  reference to the filesystem's request_queue(s).  But it was overlooked
  that the request_queue reference is *not* guaranteed to pin the
  corresponding blk_crypto_profile too; for device-mapper devices that
  support inline crypto, it doesn't.  This can cause a use-after-free.

- When the last inode that was using an incompletely-removed master key
  is evicted, the master key removal is completed by removing the key
  struct from the keyring.  Currently this is done via key_invalidate().
  Yet, key_invalidate() takes the key semaphore.  This can deadlock when
  called from the shrinker, since in fscrypt_ioctl_add_key(), memory is
  allocated with GFP_KERNEL under the same semaphore.

- More generally, the fact that the keyrings subsystem can arbitrarily
  delay the destruction of keys (via garbage collection delay, or via
  random processes getting temporary key references) is undesirable, as
  it means we can't strictly guarantee that all secrets are ever wiped.

- Doing the master key lookups via the keyrings subsystem results in the
  key_permission LSM hook being called.  fscrypt doesn't want this, as
  all access control for encrypted files is designed to happen via the
  files themselves, like any other files.  The workaround which SELinux
  users are using is to change their SELinux policy to grant key search
  access to all domains.  This works, but it is an odd extra step that
  shouldn't really have to be done.

The fix for all these issues is to change the implementation to what I
should have done originally: don't use the keyrings subsystem to keep
track of the filesystem's fscrypt_master_key structs.  Instead, just
store them in a regular kernel data structure, and rework the reference
counting, locking, and lifetime accordingly.  Retain support for
RCU-mode key lookups by using a hash table.  Replace fscrypt_sb_free()
with fscrypt_sb_delete(), which releases the keys synchronously and runs
a bit earlier during unmount, so that block devices are still available.

A side effect of this patch is that neither the master keys themselves
nor the filesystem keyrings will be listed in /proc/keys anymore.
("Master key users" and the master key users keyrings will still be
listed.)  However, this was mostly an implementation detail, and it was
intended just for debugging purposes.  I don't know of anyone using it.

This patch does *not* change how "master key users" (-&gt;mk_users) works;
that still uses the keyrings subsystem.  That is still needed for key
quotas, and changing that isn't necessary to solve the issues listed
above.  If we decide to change that too, it would be a separate patch.

I've marked this as fixing the original commit that added the fscrypt
keyring, but as noted above the most important issue that this patch
fixes wasn't introduced until the addition of inline encryption support.

For ceph, we want to use our own scheme for handling filenames that are
are longer than NAME_MAX after encryption and Base64 encoding. This
allows us to have a consistent view of the encrypted filenames for
clients that don't support fscrypt and clients that do but that don't
have the key.

Currently, fs/crypto only supports encrypting filenames using
fscrypt_setup_filename, but that also handles encoding nokey names. Ceph
can't use that because it handles nokey names in a different way.

Export fscrypt_fname_encrypt. Rename fscrypt_fname_encrypted_size to
__fscrypt_fname_encrypted_size and add a new wrapper called
fscrypt_fname_encrypted_size that takes an inode argument rather than a
pointer to a fscrypt_policy union.

<title>fscrypt: Add HCTR2 support for filename encryption</title>

HCTR2 is a tweakable, length-preserving encryption mode that is intended
for use on CPUs with dedicated crypto instructions.  HCTR2 has the
property that a bitflip in the plaintext changes the entire ciphertext.
This property fixes a known weakness with filename encryption: when two
filenames in the same directory share a prefix of &gt;= 16 bytes, with
AES-CTS-CBC their encrypted filenames share a common substring, leaking
information.  HCTR2 does not have this problem.

More information on HCTR2 can be found here: "Length-preserving
encryption with HCTR2": https://eprint.iacr.org/2021/1441.pdf

<title>fscrypt: add new helper functions for test_dummy_encryption</title>

<id>urn:sha1:218d921b581eadf312c8ef0e09113b111f104eeb</id>
<content type='text'>
Unfortunately the design of fscrypt_set_test_dummy_encryption() doesn't
work properly for the new mount API, as it combines too many steps into
one function:

  - Parse the argument to test_dummy_encryption
  - Check the setting against the filesystem instance
  - Apply the setting to the filesystem instance

The new mount API has split these into separate steps.  ext4 partially
worked around this by duplicating some of the logic, but it still had
some bugs.  To address this, add some new helper functions that split up
the steps of fscrypt_set_test_dummy_encryption():

  - fscrypt_parse_test_dummy_encryption()
  - fscrypt_dummy_policies_equal()
  - fscrypt_add_test_dummy_key()

While we're add it, also add a function fscrypt_is_dummy_policy_set()
which will be useful to avoid some #ifdef's.

fscrypt_policy.  Before this was only needed when finding the key for a
file, but now it will also be needed for test_dummy_encryption support.
