crypto: aead - Count error stats differently

2023-03-14T09:06:41+00:00

Move all stat code specific to aead into the aead code. While we're at it, change the stats so that bytes and counts are always incremented even in case of error. This allows the reference counting to be removed as we can now increment the counters prior to the operation. After the operation we simply increase the error count if necessary. This is safe as errors can only occur synchronously (or rather, the existing code already ignored asynchronous errors which are only visible to the callback function). Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: aead - fix inaccurate documentation

2023-01-20T10:29:31+00:00

The AEAD documentation conflates associated data and authentication tags: the former (along with the ciphertext) is authenticated by the latter. Fix the doc accordingly. Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: api - Replace kernel.h with the necessary inclusions

2021-12-17T05:59:48+00:00

When kernel.h is used in the headers it adds a lot into dependency hell, especially when there are circular dependencies are involved. Replace kernel.h inclusion with the list of what is really being used. Signed-off-by: Andy Shevchenko Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: header - Fix spelling errors

2021-05-28T06:21:08+00:00

Fix some spelling mistakes in comments: cipherntext ==> ciphertext syncronise ==> synchronise feeded ==> fed Signed-off-by: Zhen Lei Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: api - check for ERR pointers in crypto_destroy_tfm()

2021-03-12T13:04:01+00:00

Given that crypto_alloc_tfm() may return ERR pointers, and to avoid crashes on obscure error paths where such pointers are presented to crypto_destroy_tfm() (such as [0]), add an ERR_PTR check there before dereferencing the second argument as a struct crypto_tfm pointer.

crypto: aead - add crypto_aead_driver_name()

Add crypto_aead_driver_name(), which is analogous to crypto_skcipher_driver_name(). Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

mm, treewide: rename kzfree() to kfree_sensitive()

2020-08-07T18:33:22+00:00

As said by Linus: A symmetric naming is only helpful if it implies symmetries in use. Otherwise it's actively misleading. In "kzalloc()", the z is meaningful and an important part of what the caller wants. In "kzfree()", the z is actively detrimental, because maybe in the future we really _might_ want to use that "memfill(0xdeadbeef)" or something. The "zero" part of the interface isn't even _relevant_. The main reason that kzfree() exists is to clear sensitive information that should not be leaked to other future users of the same memory objects. Rename kzfree() to kfree_sensitive() to follow the example of the recently added kvfree_sensitive() and make the intention of the API more explicit. In addition, memzero_explicit() is used to clear the memory to make sure that it won't get optimized away by the compiler. The renaming is done by using the command sequence: git grep -w --name-only kzfree |\ xargs sed -i 's/kzfree/kfree_sensitive/' followed by some editing of the kfree_sensitive() kerneldoc and adding a kzfree backward compatibility macro in slab.h.

crypto: aead - move crypto_aead_maxauthsize() to

2019-12-11T08:37:00+00:00

Move crypto_aead_maxauthsize() to so that it's available to users of the API, not just AEAD implementations. This will be used by the self-tests. Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: ablkcipher - remove deprecated and unused ablkcipher support
