commit 6fe4e4b8259e1330945b5f3c9476e08473b8e0e8 upstream.

When a blk_crypto_key starts being used or is evicted, fs/crypto/ calls
fscrypt_get_devices() to get the filesystem's list of block devices,
then iterates over them and calls blk_crypto_config_supported(),
blk_crypto_start_using_key(), or blk_crypto_evict_key() on each one.

Currently, the block device pointers are placed in a dynamically
allocated array.  This dynamic allocation is problematic because:

- It can fail, especially at the fscrypt_destroy_inline_crypt_key() call
  site when it's invoked for inode eviction under direct reclaim.

- fscrypt_destroy_inline_crypt_key() doesn't handle the failure.  It
  just zeroizes and frees the blk_crypto_key without calling
  blk_crypto_evict_key().  That causes a use-after-free.

For now, let's fix this in the straightforward and easily-backportable
way by switching to an on-stack array.  Currently the fscrypt
multi-device functionality is used only by f2fs, which has a hardcoded
limit of 8 block devices.  An on-stack array works fine for that.

(Of course, this solution won't scale up to large number of block
devices.  For that we'd need a different solution, like moving the block
device iteration into the filesystem.  Or in the case of btrfs, which
will only support blk-crypto-fallback, we should make it just call
blk-crypto-fallback directly, so the block devices won't be needed.)

<title>fscrypt: Fix key setup in edge case with multiple data unit sizes</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit dd015b566d505d698386103e9c80b739c7336eb8 ]

The addition of support for customizable data unit sizes introduced an
edge case where a file's contents can be en/decrypted with the wrong
data unit size.  It occurs when there are multiple v2 policies that:

- Have *different* data unit sizes, via the log2_data_unit_size field

- Share the same master_key_identifier, contents_encryption_mode, and
  either FSCRYPT_POLICY_FLAG_DIRECT_KEY,
  FSCRYPT_POLICY_FLAG_IV_INO_LBLK_32, or
  FSCRYPT_POLICY_FLAG_IV_INO_LBLK_64

- Are being used on the same filesystem, which also must be mounted with
  the "inlinecrypt" mount option.

Fortunately this edge case doesn't actually occur in practice.  I just
found it via code review.  But it needs to be fixed regardless.

The bug is caused by the data unit size not being fully considered when
blk_crypto_keys are cached in mk_direct_keys, mk_iv_ino_lblk_32_keys,
and mk_iv_ino_lblk_64_keys.  They're differentiated only by master key,
encryption mode, and flag.  However, each one actually has a data unit
size too.  Only the first data unit size that is cached is used.

To fix this, start using the data unit size to differentiate the cached
keys.  For several reasons, including avoiding increasing the size of
struct fscrypt_master_key, just replace all three arrays with a single
linked list instead of changing them into two-dimensional arrays.  This
works well when considering that in practice at most 2 entries are used
across all three arrays, so it was already mostly wasted space.

For simplicity, make the list also take over the publish/subscribe of
the prepared key itself.  That is, create separate list nodes for
blk_crypto_keys vs crypto_skciphers, and add nodes to the list only when
their key is actually prepared.  (Note that the legacy
fscrypt_direct_keys table in fs/crypto/keysetup_v1.c already works this
way.)  This eliminates the need for the additional memory barriers when
reading and writing the fields of struct fscrypt_prepared_key.

Note that I technically should have included the data unit size in the
HKDF info string as well.  But it's too late to change that.

When simulating an nvme device on qemu with both logical_block_size and
physical_block_size set to 8 KiB, an error trace appears during
partition table reading at boot time. The issue is caused by
inode-&gt;i_blkbits being larger than PAGE_SHIFT, which leads to a left
shift of -1 and triggering a UBSAN warning.

This situation can happen for block devices because when
CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE is enabled, the maximum logical_block_size
is 64 KiB. set_init_blocksize() then sets the block device
inode-&gt;i_blkbits to 13, which is within this limit.

File I/O does not trigger this problem because for filesystems that do
not support the FS_LBS feature, sb_set_blocksize() prevents
sb-&gt;s_blocksize_bits from being larger than PAGE_SHIFT. During inode
allocation, alloc_inode()-&gt;inode_init_always() assigns inode-&gt;i_blkbits
from sb-&gt;s_blocksize_bits. Currently, only xfs_fs_type has the FS_LBS
flag, and since xfs I/O paths do not reach submit_bh_wbc(), it does not
hit the left-shift underflow issue.

Add and use a helper function fscrypt_get_inode_info_raw().  It loads an
inode's fscrypt info pointer using a raw dereference, which is
appropriate when the caller knows the key setup already happened.

This eliminates most occurrences of inode::i_crypt_info in the source,
in preparation for replacing that with a filesystem-specific field.

<id>urn:sha1:c07d3aede2b26830ee63f64d8326f6a87dee3a6d</id>
<content type='text'>
Add support for hardware-wrapped keys to fscrypt.  Such keys are
protected from certain attacks, such as cold boot attacks.  For more
information, see the "Hardware-wrapped keys" section of
Documentation/block/inline-encryption.rst.

To support hardware-wrapped keys in fscrypt, we allow the fscrypt master
keys to be hardware-wrapped.  File contents encryption is done by
passing the wrapped key to the inline encryption hardware via
blk-crypto.  Other fscrypt operations such as filenames encryption
continue to be done by the kernel, using the "software secret" which the
hardware derives.  For more information, see the documentation which
this patch adds to Documentation/filesystems/fscrypt.rst.

Note that this feature doesn't require any filesystem-specific changes.
However it does depend on inline encryption support, and thus currently
it is only applicable to ext4 and f2fs.

The version of this feature introduced by this patch is mostly
equivalent to the version that has existed downstream in the Android
Common Kernels since 2020.  However, a couple fixes are included.
First, the flags field in struct fscrypt_add_key_arg is now placed in
the proper location.  Second, key identifiers for HW-wrapped keys are
now derived using a distinct HKDF context byte; this fixes a bug where a
raw key could have the same identifier as a HW-wrapped key.  Note that
as a result of these fixes, the version of this feature introduced by
this patch is not UAPI or on-disk format compatible with the version in
the Android Common Kernels, though the divergence is limited to just
those specific fixes.  This version should be used going forwards.

This patch has been heavily rewritten from the original version by
Gaurav Kashyap &lt;quic_gaurkash@quicinc.com&gt; and
Barani Muthukumaran &lt;bmuthuku@codeaurora.org&gt;.

<content type='text'>
To prevent keys from being compromised if an attacker acquires read
access to kernel memory, some inline encryption hardware can accept keys
which are wrapped by a per-boot hardware-internal key.  This avoids
needing to keep the raw keys in kernel memory, without limiting the
number of keys that can be used.  Such hardware also supports deriving a
"software secret" for cryptographic tasks that can't be handled by
inline encryption; this is needed for fscrypt to work properly.

To support this hardware, allow struct blk_crypto_key to represent a
hardware-wrapped key as an alternative to a raw key, and make drivers
set flags in struct blk_crypto_profile to indicate which types of keys
they support.  Also add the -&gt;derive_sw_secret() low-level operation,
which drivers supporting wrapped keys must implement.

For more information, see the detailed documentation which this patch
adds to Documentation/block/inline-encryption.rst.

Until now, fscrypt has always used the filesystem block size as the
granularity of file contents encryption.  Two scenarios have come up
where a sub-block granularity of contents encryption would be useful:

1. Inline crypto hardware that only supports a crypto data unit size
   that is less than the filesystem block size.

2. Support for direct I/O at a granularity less than the filesystem
   block size, for example at the block device's logical block size in
   order to match the traditional direct I/O alignment requirement.

(1) first came up with older eMMC inline crypto hardware that only
supports a crypto data unit size of 512 bytes.  That specific case
ultimately went away because all systems with that hardware continued
using out of tree code and never actually upgraded to the upstream
inline crypto framework.  But, now it's coming back in a new way: some
current UFS controllers only support a data unit size of 4096 bytes, and
there is a proposal to increase the filesystem block size to 16K.

(2) was discussed as a "nice to have" feature, though not essential,
when support for direct I/O on encrypted files was being upstreamed.

Still, the fact that this feature has come up several times does suggest
it would be wise to have available.  Therefore, this patch implements it
by using one of the reserved bytes in fscrypt_policy_v2 to allow users
to select a sub-block data unit size.  Supported data unit sizes are
powers of 2 between 512 and the filesystem block size, inclusively.
Support is implemented for both the FS-layer and inline crypto cases.

This patch focuses on the basic support for sub-block data units.  Some
things are out of scope for this patch but may be addressed later:

- Supporting sub-block data units in combination with
  FSCRYPT_POLICY_FLAG_IV_INO_LBLK_64, in most cases.  Unfortunately this
  combination usually causes data unit indices to exceed 32 bits, and
  thus fscrypt_supported_policy() correctly disallows it.  The users who
  potentially need this combination are using f2fs.  To support it, f2fs
  would need to provide an option to slightly reduce its max file size.

- Supporting sub-block data units in combination with
  FSCRYPT_POLICY_FLAG_IV_INO_LBLK_32.  This has the same problem
  described above, but also it will need special code to make DUN
  wraparound still happen on a FS block boundary.

- Supporting use case (2) mentioned above.  The encrypted direct I/O
  code will need to stop requiring and assuming FS block alignment.
  This won't be hard, but it belongs in a separate patch.

- Supporting this feature on filesystems other than ext4 and f2fs.
  (Filesystems declare support for it via their fscrypt_operations.)
  On UBIFS, sub-block data units don't make sense because UBIFS encrypts
  variable-length blocks as a result of compression.  CephFS could
  support it, but a bit more work would be needed to make the
  fscrypt_*_block_inplace functions play nicely with sub-block data
  units.  I don't think there's a use case for this on CephFS anyway.
