<id>urn:sha1:ee6ff2071f172a8b74ec733ba167e5a5f98786c3</id>

commit c0403ec0bb5a8c5b267fb7e16021bec0b17e4964 upstream.

This reverts Linux 4.1-rc1 commit 0618764cb25f6fa9fb31152995de42a8a0496475.

The problem which that commit attempts to fix actually lies in the
Freescale CAAM crypto driver not dm-crypt.

dm-crypt uses CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_MAY_BACKLOG.  This means the the crypto
driver should internally backlog requests which arrive when the queue is
full and process them later.  Until the crypto hw's queue becomes full,
the driver returns -EINPROGRESS.  When the crypto hw's queue if full,
the driver returns -EBUSY, and if CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_MAY_BACKLOG is set, is
expected to backlog the request and process it when the hardware has
queue space.  At the point when the driver takes the request from the
backlog and starts processing it, it calls the completion function with
a status of -EINPROGRESS.  The completion function is called (for a
second time, in the case of backlogged requests) with a status/err of 0
when a request is done.

Crypto drivers for hardware without hardware queueing use the helpers,
crypto_init_queue(), crypto_enqueue_request(), crypto_dequeue_request()
and crypto_get_backlog() helpers to implement this behaviour correctly,
while others implement this behaviour without these helpers (ccp, for
example).

dm-crypt (before the patch that needs reverting) uses this API
correctly.  It queues up as many requests as the hw queues will allow
(i.e. as long as it gets back -EINPROGRESS from the request function).
Then, when it sees at least one backlogged request (gets -EBUSY), it
waits till that backlogged request is handled (completion gets called
with -EINPROGRESS), and then continues.  The references to
af_alg_wait_for_completion() and af_alg_complete() in that commit's
commit message are irrelevant because those functions only handle one
request at a time, unlink dm-crypt.

The problem is that the Freescale CAAM driver, which that commit
describes as having being tested with, fails to implement the
backlogging behaviour correctly.  In cam_jr_enqueue(), if the hardware
queue is full, it simply returns -EBUSY without backlogging the request.
What the observed deadlock was is not described in the commit message
but it is obviously the wait_for_completion() in crypto_convert() where
dm-crypto would wait for the completion being called with -EINPROGRESS
in the case of backlogged requests.  This completion will never be
completed due to the bug in the CAAM driver.

Commit 0618764cb25 incorrectly made dm-crypt wait for every request,
even when the driver/hardware queues are not full, which means that
dm-crypt will never see -EBUSY.  This means that that commit will cause
a performance regression on all crypto drivers which implement the API
correctly.

Revert it.  Correct backlog handling should be implemented in the CAAM
driver instead.

Cc'ing stable purely because commit 0618764cb25 did.  If for some reason
a stable@ kernel did pick up commit 0618764cb25 it should get reverted.

commit 0618764cb25f6fa9fb31152995de42a8a0496475 upstream.

I suspect this doesn't show up for most anyone because software
algorithms typically don't have a sense of being too busy.  However,
when working with the Freescale CAAM driver it will return -EBUSY on
occasion under heavy -- which resulted in dm-crypt deadlock.

After checking the logic in some other drivers, the scheme for
crypt_convert() and it's callback, kcryptd_async_done(), were not
correctly laid out to properly handle -EBUSY or -EINPROGRESS.

Fix this by using the completion for both -EBUSY and -EINPROGRESS.  Now
crypt_convert()'s use of completion is comparable to
af_alg_wait_for_completion().  Similarly, kcryptd_async_done() follows
the pattern used in af_alg_complete().

Before this fix dm-crypt would lockup within 1-2 minutes running with
the CAAM driver.  Fix was regression tested against software algorithms
on PPC32 and x86_64, and things seem perfectly happy there as well.

<title>dm crypt: fix access beyond the end of allocated space</title>

commit d49ec52ff6ddcda178fc2476a109cf1bd1fa19ed upstream.

The DM crypt target accesses memory beyond allocated space resulting in
a crash on 32 bit x86 systems.

This bug is very old (it dates back to 2.6.25 commit 3a7f6c990ad04 "dm
crypt: use async crypto").  However, this bug was masked by the fact
that kmalloc rounds the size up to the next power of two.  This bug
wasn't exposed until 3.17-rc1 commit 298a9fa08a ("dm crypt: use per-bio
data").  By switching to using per-bio data there was no longer any
padding beyond the end of a dm-crypt allocated memory block.

To minimize allocation overhead dm-crypt puts several structures into one
block allocated with kmalloc.  The block holds struct ablkcipher_request,
cipher-specific scratch pad (crypto_ablkcipher_reqsize(any_tfm(cc))),
struct dm_crypt_request and an initialization vector.

The variable dmreq_start is set to offset of struct dm_crypt_request
within this memory block.  dm-crypt allocates the block with this size:
cc-&gt;dmreq_start + sizeof(struct dm_crypt_request) + cc-&gt;iv_size.

When accessing the initialization vector, dm-crypt uses the function
iv_of_dmreq, which performs this calculation: ALIGN((unsigned long)(dmreq
+ 1), crypto_ablkcipher_alignmask(any_tfm(cc)) + 1).

dm-crypt allocated "cc-&gt;iv_size" bytes beyond the end of dm_crypt_request
structure.  However, when dm-crypt accesses the initialization vector, it
takes a pointer to the end of dm_crypt_request, aligns it, and then uses
it as the initialization vector.  If the end of dm_crypt_request is not
aligned on a crypto_ablkcipher_alignmask(any_tfm(cc)) boundary the
alignment causes the initialization vector to point beyond the allocated
space.

Fix this bug by calculating the variable iv_size_padding and adding it
to the allocated size.

Also correct the alignment of dm_crypt_request.  struct dm_crypt_request
is specific to dm-crypt (it isn't used by the crypto subsystem at all),
so it is aligned on __alignof__(struct dm_crypt_request).

Also align per_bio_data_size on ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN, so that it is
aligned as if the block was allocated with kmalloc.

<title>dm crypt: fix cpu hotplug crash by removing per-cpu structure</title>

<id>urn:sha1:4cf3d5e62ea1868a963f6430eb7e40e46ac7295b</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 610f2de3559c383caf8fbbf91e9968102dff7ca0 upstream.

The DM crypt target used per-cpu structures to hold pointers to a
ablkcipher_request structure.  The code assumed that the work item keeps
executing on a single CPU, so it didn't use synchronization when
accessing this structure.

If a CPU is disabled by writing 0 to /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/online,
the work item could be moved to another CPU.  This causes dm-crypt
crashes, like the following, because the code starts using an incorrect
ablkcipher_request:

 smpboot: CPU 7 is now offline
 BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000130

  [&lt;ffffffff81058cf0&gt;] ? kthread_create_on_node+0x120/0x120

Fix this bug by removing the per-cpu definition.  The structure
ablkcipher_request is accessed via a pointer from convert_context.
Consequently, if the work item is rescheduled to a different CPU, the
thread still uses the same ablkcipher_request.

This change may undermine performance improvements intended by commit
c0297721 ("dm crypt: scale to multiple cpus") on select hardware.  In
practice no performance difference was observed on recent hardware.  But
regardless, correctness is more important than performance.

Now that we've got a mechanism for immutable biovecs -
bi_iter.bi_bvec_done - we need to convert drivers to use primitives that
respect it instead of using the bvec array directly.

Immutable biovecs are going to require an explicit iterator. To
implement immutable bvecs, a later patch is going to add a bi_bvec_done
member to this struct; for now, this patch effectively just renames
things.

<title>dm crypt: add TCW IV mode for old CBC TCRYPT containers</title>

<id>urn:sha1:ed04d98169f1c33ebc79f510c855eed83924d97f</id>
<content type='text'>
dm-crypt can already activate TCRYPT (TrueCrypt compatible) containers
in LRW or XTS block encryption mode.

TCRYPT containers prior to version 4.1 use CBC mode with some additional
tweaks, this patch adds support for these containers.

This new mode is implemented using special IV generator named TCW
(TrueCrypt IV with whitening).  TCW IV only supports containers that are
encrypted with one cipher (Tested with AES, Twofish, Serpent, CAST5 and
TripleDES).

While this mode is legacy and is known to be vulnerable to some
watermarking attacks (e.g. revealing of hidden disk existence) it can
still be useful to activate old containers without using 3rd party
software or for independent forensic analysis of such containers.

(Both the userspace and kernel code is an independent implementation
based on the format documentation and it completely avoids use of
original source code.)

The TCW IV generator uses two additional keys: Kw (whitening seed, size
is always 16 bytes - TCW_WHITENING_SIZE) and Kiv (IV seed, size is
always the IV size of the selected cipher).  These keys are concatenated
at the end of the main encryption key provided in mapping table.

While whitening is completely independent from IV, it is implemented
inside IV generator for simplification.

The whitening value is always 16 bytes long and is calculated per sector
from provided Kw as initial seed, xored with sector number and mixed
with CRC32 algorithm.  Resulting value is xored with ciphertext sector
content.

IV is calculated from the provided Kiv as initial IV seed and xored with
sector number.

Detailed calculation can be found in the Truecrypt documentation for
version &lt; 4.1 and will also be described on dm-crypt site, see:
http://code.google.com/p/cryptsetup/wiki/DMCrypt

The experimental support for activation of these containers is already
present in git devel brach of cryptsetup.

Some encryption modes use extra keys (e.g. loopAES has IV seed) which
are not used in block cipher initialization but are part of key string
in table constructor.

This patch adds an additional field which describes the length of the
extra key(s) and substracts it before real key encryption setting.

The key_size always includes the size, in bytes, of the key provided
in mapping table.

The key_parts describes how many parts (usually keys) are contained in
the whole key buffer.  And key_extra_size contains size in bytes of
additional keys part (this number of bytes must be subtracted because it
is processed by the IV generator).

| K1 | K2 | .... | K64 |      Kiv       |
|----------- key_size ----------------- |
|                      |-key_extra_size-|
|     [64 keys]        |  [1 key]       | =&gt; key_parts = 65

Example where key string contains main key K, whitening key
Kw and IV seed Kiv:

|     K       |   Kiv   |       Kw      |
|--------------- key_size --------------|
|             |-----key_extra_size------|
|  [1 key]    | [1 key] |     [1 key]   | =&gt; key_parts = 3

Because key_extra_size is calculated during IV mode setting, key
initialization is moved after this step.

For now, this change has no effect to supported modes (thanks to ilog2
rounding) but it is required by the following patch.

Also, fix a sparse warning in crypt_iv_lmk_one().
