commit d7e7b9af104c7b389a0c21eb26532511bce4b510 upstream.

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.

Most filesystems just call fscrypt_set_context on new inodes, which
usually causes a setxattr. That's a bit late for ceph, which can send
along a full set of attributes with the create request.

Doing so allows it to avoid race windows that where the new inode could
be seen by other clients without the crypto context attached. It also
avoids the separate round trip to the server.

Refactor the fscrypt code a bit to allow us to create a new crypto
context, attach it to the inode, and write it to the buffer, but without
calling set_context on it. ceph can later use this to marshal the
context into the attributes we send along with the create request.

<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.

<title>inode: make init and permission helpers idmapped mount aware</title>

The inode_owner_or_capable() helper determines whether the caller is the
owner of the inode or is capable with respect to that inode. Allow it to
handle idmapped mounts. If the inode is accessed through an idmapped
mount it according to the mount's user namespace. Afterwards the checks
are identical to non-idmapped mounts. If the initial user namespace is
passed nothing changes so non-idmapped mounts will see identical
behavior as before.

Similarly, allow the inode_init_owner() helper to handle idmapped
mounts. It initializes a new inode on idmapped mounts by mapping the
fsuid and fsgid of the caller from the mount's user namespace. If the
initial user namespace is passed nothing changes so non-idmapped mounts
will see identical behavior as before.

<title>fscrypt: allow deleting files with unsupported encryption policy</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a14d0b6764917b21ee6fdfd2a8a4c2920fbefcce</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently it's impossible to delete files that use an unsupported
encryption policy, as the kernel will just return an error when
performing any operation on the top-level encrypted directory, even just
a path lookup into the directory or opening the directory for readdir.

More specifically, this occurs in any of the following cases:

- The encryption context has an unrecognized version number.  Current
  kernels know about v1 and v2, but there could be more versions in the
  future.

- The encryption context has unrecognized encryption modes
  (FSCRYPT_MODE_*) or flags (FSCRYPT_POLICY_FLAG_*), an unrecognized
  combination of modes, or reserved bits set.

- The encryption key has been added and the encryption modes are
  recognized but aren't available in the crypto API -- for example, a
  directory is encrypted with FSCRYPT_MODE_ADIANTUM but the kernel
  doesn't have CONFIG_CRYPTO_ADIANTUM enabled.

It's desirable to return errors for most operations on files that use an
unsupported encryption policy, but the current behavior is too strict.
We need to allow enough to delete files, so that people can't be stuck
with undeletable files when downgrading kernel versions.  That includes
allowing directories to be listed and allowing dentries to be looked up.

Fix this by modifying the key setup logic to treat an unsupported
encryption policy in the same way as "key unavailable" in the cases that
are required for a recursive delete to work: preparing for a readdir or
a dentry lookup, revalidating a dentry, or checking whether an inode has
the same encryption policy as its parent directory.

<title>fscrypt: remove kernel-internal constants from UAPI header</title>

<id>urn:sha1:3ceb6543e9cf6ed87cc1fbc6f23ca2db903564cd</id>
<content type='text'>
There isn't really any valid reason to use __FSCRYPT_MODE_MAX or
FSCRYPT_POLICY_FLAGS_VALID in a userspace program.  These constants are
only meant to be used by the kernel internally, and they are defined in
the UAPI header next to the mode numbers and flags only so that kernel
developers don't forget to update them when adding new modes or flags.

In https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20201005074133.1958633-2-satyat@google.com
there was an example of someone wanting to use __FSCRYPT_MODE_MAX in a
user program, and it was wrong because the program would have broken if
__FSCRYPT_MODE_MAX were ever increased.  So having this definition
available is harmful.  FSCRYPT_POLICY_FLAGS_VALID has the same problem.

So, remove these definitions from the UAPI header.  Replace
FSCRYPT_POLICY_FLAGS_VALID with just listing the valid flags explicitly
in the one kernel function that needs it.  Move __FSCRYPT_MODE_MAX to
fscrypt_private.h, remove the double underscores (which were only
present to discourage use by userspace), and add a BUILD_BUG_ON() and
comments to (hopefully) ensure it is kept in sync.

Keep the old name FS_POLICY_FLAGS_VALID, since it's been around for
longer and there's a greater chance that removing it would break source
compatibility with some program.  Indeed, mtd-utils is using it in
an #ifdef, and removing it would introduce compiler warnings (about
FS_POLICY_FLAGS_PAD_* being redefined) into the mtd-utils build.
However, reduce its value to 0x07 so that it only includes the flags
with old names (the ones present before Linux 5.4), and try to make it
clear that it's now "frozen" and no new flags should be added to it.

fscrypt_set_test_dummy_encryption() requires that the optional argument
to the test_dummy_encryption mount option be specified as a substring_t.
That doesn't work well with filesystems that use the new mount API,
since the new way of parsing mount options doesn't use substring_t.

Make it take the argument as a 'const char *' instead.

Instead of moving the match_strdup() into the callers in ext4 and f2fs,
make them just use arg-&gt;from directly.  Since the pattern is
"test_dummy_encryption=%s", the argument will be null-terminated.
