At present, the tcrypt module always exits with an -EAGAIN upon
successfully completing all the tests its been asked to run. In fips
mode, integrity checking is done by running all self-tests from the
initrd, and its much simpler to check the ret from modprobe for
success than to scrape dmesg and/or /proc/crypto. Simply stay
loaded, giving modprobe a retval of 0, if self-tests all pass and
we're in fips mode.
A side-effect of tracking success/failure for fips mode is that in
non-fips mode, self-test failures will return the actual failure
return codes, rather than always returning -EAGAIN, which seems more
correct anyway.
The tcrypt_test() portion of the patch is dependent on my earlier
pair of patches that skip non-fips algs in fips mode, at least to
achieve the fully intended behavior.
Nb: testing this patch against the cryptodev tree revealed a test
failure for sha384, which I have yet to look into...

Because all fips-allowed algorithms must be self-tested before they
can be used, they will all have entries in testmgr.c's alg_test_descs[].
Skip self-tests for any algs not flagged as fips_approved and return
-EINVAL when in fips mode.

Set the fips_allowed flag in testmgr.c's alg_test_descs[] for algs
that are allowed to be used when in fips mode.
One caveat: des isn't actually allowed anymore, but des (and thus also
ecb(des)) has to be permitted, because disallowing them results in
des3_ede being unable to properly register (see des module init func).
Also, crc32 isn't technically on the fips approved list, but I think
it gets used in various places that necessitate it being allowed.
This list is based on
http://csrc.nist.gov/groups/STM/cavp/index.html
Important note: allowed/approved here does NOT mean "validated", just
that its an alg that *could* be validated.

We currently allocate temporary memory that is used for testing
statically. This renders the testing engine non-reentrant. As
algorithms may nest, i.e., one may construct another in order to
carry out a part of its operation, this is unacceptable. For
example, it has been reported that an AEAD implementation allocates
a cipher in its setkey function, which causes it to fail during
testing as the temporary memory is overwritten.
This patch replaces the static memory with dynamically allocated
buffers. We need a maximum of 16 pages so this slightly increases
the chances of an algorithm failing due to memory shortage.
However, as testing usually occurs at registration, this shouldn't
be a big problem.

According to our FIPS CAVS testing lab guru, when we're in fips mode,
we must print out notices of successful self-test completion for
every alg to be compliant.
New and improved v2, without strncmp crap. Doesn't need to touch a flag
though, due to not moving the notest label around anymore.
Applies atop '[PATCH v2] crypto: catch base cipher self-test failures
in fips mode'.
Personally, I wouldn't mind seeing this info printed out regardless of
whether or not we're in fips mode, I think its useful info, but will
stick with only in fips mode for now.

Add some necessary infrastructure to make it possible to run

to the ANSI X9.31 CPRNG in AES mode, and thus perhaps should
be named more specifically if/when we grow additional CPRNG
support...

Add an array of encryption and decryption + verification self-tests
for rfc4309(ccm(aes)).
Test vectors all come from sample FIPS CAVS files provided to
Red Hat by a testing lab. Unfortunately, all the published sample
vectors in RFC 3610 and NIST Special Publication 800-38C contain nonce
lengths that the kernel's rfc4309 implementation doesn't support, so
while using some public domain vectors would have been preferred, its
not possible at this time.

Because kernel_fpu_begin() and kernel_fpu_end() operations are too
slow, the performance gain of general mode implementation + aes-aesni
is almost all compensated.
The AES-NI support for more modes are implemented as follow:
- Add a new AES algorithm implementation named __aes-aesni without
kernel_fpu_begin/end()
- Use fpu(<mode>(AES)) to provide kenrel_fpu_begin/end() invoking
- Add <mode>(AES) ablkcipher, which uses cryptd(fpu(<mode>(AES))) to
defer cryption to cryptd context in soft_irq context.
Now the ctr, lrw, pcbc and xts support are added.
Performance testing based on dm-crypt shows that cryption time can be
reduced to 50% of general mode implementation + aes-aesni implementation.

Blkcipher touching FPU need to be enclosed by kernel_fpu_begin() and
kernel_fpu_end(). If they are invoked in cipher algorithm
implementation, they will be invoked for each block, so that
performance will be hurt, because they are "slow" operations. This
patch implements "fpu" template, which makes these operations to be
invoked for each request.

A quirk that we've always supported is having an sg entry that's
bigger than a page, or more generally an sg entry that crosses
page boundaries. Even though it would be better to explicitly have
to sg entries for this, we need to support it for the existing users,
in particular, IPsec.
The new ahash sg walking code did try to handle this, but there was
a bug where we didn't increment the page so kept on walking on the
first page over an dover again.
This patch fixes it.

The current "comp" crypto interface supports one-shot (de)compression only,
i.e. the whole data buffer to be (de)compressed must be passed at once, and
the whole (de)compressed data buffer will be received at once.
In several use-cases (e.g. compressed file systems that store files in big
compressed blocks), this workflow is not suitable.
Furthermore, the "comp" type doesn't provide for the configuration of
(de)compression parameters, and always allocates workspace memory for both
compression and decompression, which may waste memory.
To solve this, add a "pcomp" partial (de)compression interface that provides
the following operations:
- crypto_compress_{init,update,final}() for compression,
- crypto_decompress_{init,update,final}() for decompression,
- crypto_{,de}compress_setup(), to configure (de)compression parameters
(incl. allocating workspace memory).
The (de)compression methods take a struct comp_request, which was mimicked
after the z_stream object in zlib, and contains buffer pointer and length
pairs for input and output.
The setup methods take an opaque parameter pointer and length pair. Parameters
are supposed to be encoded using netlink attributes, whose meanings depend on
the actual (name of the) (de)compression algorithm.

With the mandatory algorithm testing at registration, we have
now created a deadlock with algorithms requiring fallbacks.
This can happen if the module containing the algorithm requiring
fallback is loaded first, without the fallback module being loaded
first. The system will then try to test the new algorithm, find
that it needs to load a fallback, and then try to load that.
As both algorithms share the same module alias, it can attempt
to load the original algorithm again and block indefinitely.
As algorithms requiring fallbacks are a special case, we can fix
this by giving them a different module alias than the rest. Then
it's just a matter of using the right aliases according to what
algorithms we're trying to find.

Original cryptd thread implementation has scalability issue, this
patch solve the issue with a per-CPU thread implementation.
struct cryptd_queue is defined to be a per-CPU queue, which holds one
struct cryptd_cpu_queue for each CPU. In struct cryptd_cpu_queue, a
struct crypto_queue holds all requests for the CPU, a struct
work_struct is used to run all requests for the CPU.
Testing based on dm-crypt on an Intel Core 2 E6400 (two cores) machine
shows 19.2% performance gain. The testing script is as follow:
-------------------- script begin ---------------------------
#!/bin/sh
dmc_create()
{
# Create a crypt device using dmsetup
dmsetup create $2 --table "0 `blockdev --getsize $1` crypt cbc(aes-asm)?cryptd?plain:plain babebabebabebabebabebabebabebabe 0 $1 0"
}
dmsetup remove crypt0
dmsetup remove crypt1
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ram0 bs=1M count=4 >& /dev/null
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ram1 bs=1M count=4 >& /dev/null
dmc_create /dev/ram0 crypt0
dmc_create /dev/ram1 crypt1
cat >tr.sh <<EOF
#!/bin/sh
for n in \$(seq 10); do
dd if=/dev/dm-0 of=/dev/null >& /dev/null &
dd if=/dev/dm-1 of=/dev/null >& /dev/null &
done
wait
EOF
for n in $(seq 10); do
/usr/bin/time sh tr.sh
done
rm tr.sh
-------------------- script end ---------------------------
The separator of dm-crypt parameter is changed from "-" to "?", because
"-" is used in some cipher driver name too, and cryptds need to specify
cipher driver name instead of cipher name.
The test result on an Intel Core2 E6400 (two cores) is as follow:

we only test givcipher objects. This patch fixes the bypass logic
to test these algorithms.
Conversely, we're currently testing nivaead algorithms with IVs,
which would have deadlocked had it not been for the fact that no
nivaead algorithms have any test vectors. This patch also fixes
that case.
Both fixes are ugly as hell, but this ugliness should hopefully
disappear once we move them into the per-type code (i.e., the
AEAD test would live in aead.c and the skcipher stuff in ablkcipher.c).

When an aead constructed through crypto_nivaead_default fails
its selftest, we'll loop forever trying to construct new aead
objects but failing because it already exists.
The crux of the issue is that once an aead fails the selftest,
we'll ignore it on the next run through crypto_aead_lookup and
attempt to construct a new aead.
We should instead return an error to the caller if we find an
an that has failed the test.
This bug hasn't manifested itself yet because we don't have any
test vectors for the existing nivaead algorithms. They're tested
through the underlying algorithms only.

This is based on a report and patch by Geert Uytterhoeven.
The functions crypto_alloc_tfm and create_create_tfm return a
pointer that needs to be adjusted by the caller when successful
and otherwise an error value. This means that the caller has
to check for the error and only perform the adjustment if the
pointer returned is valid.
Since all callers want to make the adjustment and we know how
to adjust it ourselves, it's much easier to just return adjusted
pointer directly.
The only caveat is that we have to return a void * instead of
struct crypto_tfm *. However, this isn't that bad because both
of these functions are for internal use only (by types code like
shash.c, not even algorithms code).
This patch also moves crypto_alloc_tfm into crypto/internal.h
(crypto_create_tfm is already there) to reflect this.

As it stands crypto_alg_mod_lookup will search either tested or
untested algorithms, but never both at the same time. However,
we need exactly that when constructing givcipher and aead so
this patch adds support for that by setting the tested bit in
type but clearing it in mask. This combination is currently
unused.

FIPS 140-2 specifies that all access to various cryptographic modules be
prevented in the event that any of the provided self tests fail on the various
implemented algorithms. We already panic when any of the test in testmgr.c
fail when we are operating in fips mode. The continuous test in the cprng here
was missed when that was implmented. This code simply checks for the
fips_enabled flag if the test fails, and warns us via syslog or panics the box
accordingly.

Pseudo RNGs provide predictable outputs based on input parateters {key, V, DT},
the idea behind them is that only the user should know what the inputs are.
While its nice to have default known values for testing purposes, it seems
dangerous to allow the use of those default values without some sort of safety
measure in place, lest an attacker easily guess the output of the cprng. This
patch forces the NEED_RESET flag on when allocating a cprng context, so that any
user is forced to reseed it before use. The defaults can still be used for
testing, but this will prevent their inadvertent use, and be more secure.

Intel AES-NI is a new set of Single Instruction Multiple Data (SIMD)
instructions that are going to be introduced in the next generation of
Intel processor, as of 2009. These instructions enable fast and secure
data encryption and decryption, using the Advanced Encryption Standard
(AES), defined by FIPS Publication number 197. The architecture
introduces six instructions that offer full hardware support for
AES. Four of them support high performance data encryption and
decryption, and the other two instructions support the AES key
expansion procedure.
The white paper can be downloaded from:
http://softwarecommunity.intel.com/isn/downloads/intelavx/AES-Instructions-Set_WP.pdf
AES may be used in soft_irq context, but MMX/SSE context can not be
touched safely in soft_irq context. So in_interrupt() is checked, if
in IRQ or soft_irq context, the general x86_64 implementation are used
instead.

cryptd_alloc_ablkcipher() will allocate a cryptd-ed ablkcipher for
specified algorithm name. The new allocated one is guaranteed to be
cryptd-ed ablkcipher, so the blkcipher underlying can be gotten via
cryptd_ablkcipher_child().
