This patch fixes a serious bug in the test disabling patch where it can cause an spurious load of the cryptomgr module even when it's compiled in. It also negates the test disabling option so that its absence causes tests to be enabled. The Kconfig option is also now behind EMBEDDED. Signed-off-by:

By default, CONFIG_CRYPTO_MANAGER_TESTS will be enabled and thus self-tests will still run, but it is now possible to disable them to gain some time during bootup. Signed-off-by:

include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch. Signed-off-by:

This patch introduces the template->create function intended to replace the existing alloc function. The intention is for create to handle the registration directly, whereas currently the caller of alloc has to handle the registration. This allows type-specific code to be run prior to registration.

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. Reported-by:

As it is an skcipher with no IV escapes testing altogether because 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).

As it is we only test ciphers when combined with a mode. That means users that do not invoke a mode of operations may get an untested cipher. This patch tests all ciphers using the ECB mode so that simple cipher users such as ansi-cprng are also protected. Signed-off-by:

As Joy Latten points out, inner algorithm parameters will miss the closing bracket which will also cause the outer algorithm to terminate prematurely. This patch fixes that also kills the WARN_ON if the number of parameters exceed the maximum as that is a user error. Signed-off-by:

This patch adds support for having multiple parameters to a template, separated by a comma. It also adds support for integer parameters in addition to the current algorithm parameter type. This will be used by the authenc template which will have four parameters: the authentication algorithm, the encryption algorithm, the authentication size and the encryption key length.

This patch passes the type/mask along when constructing instances of templates. This is in preparation for templates that may support multiple types of instances depending on what is requested. For example, the planned software async crypto driver will use this construct. For the moment this allows us to check whether the instance constructed is of the correct type and avoid returning success if the type does not match. Signed-off-by:

Pass the work_struct pointer to the work function rather than context data. The work function can use container_of() to work out the data. For the cases where the container of the work_struct may go away the moment the pending bit is cleared, it is made possible to defer the release of the structure by deferring the clearing of the pending bit. To make this work, an extra flag is introduced into the management side of the work_struct. This governs auto-release of the structure upon execution. Ordinarily, the work queue executor would release the work_struct for further scheduling or deallocation by clearing the pending bit prior to jumping to the work function. This means that, unless the driver makes some guarantee itself that the work_struct won't go away, the work function may not access anything else in the work_struct or its container lest they be deallocated.. This is a problem if the auxiliary data is taken away (as done by the last patch). However, if the pending bit is *not* cleared before jumping to the work function, then the work function *may* access the work_struct and its container with no problems. But then the work function must itself release the work_struct by calling work_release(). In most cases, automatic release is fine, so this is the default. Special initiators exist for the non-auto-release case (ending in _NAR). Signed-Off-By:

This patch also adds the infrastructure to pick an algorithm based on their type. For example, this allows you to select the encryption algorithm "aes", instead of any algorithm registered under the name "aes". For now this is only accessible internally. Eventually it will be made available through crypto_alloc_tfm. Signed-off-by:

The cryptomgr module is a simple manager of crypto algorithm instances. It ensures that parameterised algorithms of the type tmpl(alg) (e.g., cbc(aes)) are always created. This is meant to satisfy the needs for most users. For more complex cases such as deeper combinations or multiple parameters, a netlink module will be created which allows arbitrary expressions to be parsed in user-space. Signed-off-by:
