crypto: af_alg - User-space interface for Crypto API This patch creates the backbone of the user-space interface for the Crypto API, through a new socket family AF_ALG. Each session corresponds to one or more connections obtained from that socket. The number depends on the number of inputs/outputs of that particular type of operation. For most types there will be a s ingle connection/file descriptor that is used for both input and output. AEAD is one of the few that require two inputs. Each algorithm type will provide its own implementation that plugs into af_alg. They're keyed using a string such as "skcipher" or "hash". IOW this patch only contains the boring bits that is required to hold everything together. Thakns to Miloslav Trmac for reviewing this and contributing fixes and improvements.

crypto: fix af_alg_make_sg() conversion to iov_iter Commit 1d10eb2f156f ("crypto: switch af_alg_make_sg() to iov_iter") broke af_alg_make_sg() and skcipher_recvmsg() in the process of moving them to the iov_iter interfaces. The 'npages' calculation in the formar calculated the number of *bytes* in the pages, and in the latter case the conversion didn't re-read the value of 'ctx->used' after waiting for it to become non-zero. This reverts to the original code for both these cases. Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

crypto: af_alg - fix backlog handling If a request is backlogged, it's complete() handler will get called twice: once with -EINPROGRESS, and once with the final error code. af_alg's complete handler, unlike other users, does not handle the -EINPROGRESS but instead always completes the completion that recvmsg() is waiting on. This can lead to a return to user space while the request is still pending in the driver. If userspace closes the sockets before the requests are handled by the driver, this will lead to use-after-frees (and potential crashes) in the kernel due to the tfm having been freed. The crashes can be easily reproduced (for example) by reducing the max queue length in cryptod.c and running the following (from http://www.chronox.de/libkcapi.html) on AES-NI capable hardware: $ while true; do kcapi -x 1 -e -c '__ecb-aes-aesni' \ -k 00000000000000000000000000000000 \ -p 00000000000000000000000000000000 >/dev/null & done Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Rabin Vincent <rabin.vincent@axis.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

crypto: af_alg - User-space interface for Crypto API This patch creates the backbone of the user-space interface for the Crypto API, through a new socket family AF_ALG. Each session corresponds to one or more connections obtained from that socket. The number depends on the number of inputs/outputs of that particular type of operation. For most types there will be a s ingle connection/file descriptor that is used for both input and output. AEAD is one of the few that require two inputs. Each algorithm type will provide its own implementation that plugs into af_alg. They're keyed using a string such as "skcipher" or "hash". IOW this patch only contains the boring bits that is required to hold everything together. Thakns to Miloslav Trmac for reviewing this and contributing fixes and improvements.
