crypto: doc - improve the skcipher API example code

2019-06-13T06:31:40Z

Rewrite the skcipher API example, changing it to encrypt a buffer with AES-256-XTS. This addresses various problems with the previous example: - It requests a specific driver "cbc-aes-aesni", which is unusual. Normally users ask for "cbc(aes)", not a specific driver. - It encrypts only a single AES block. For the reader, that doesn't clearly distinguish the "skcipher" API from the "cipher" API. - Showing how to encrypt something with bare CBC is arguably a poor choice of example, as it doesn't follow modern crypto trends. Now, usually authenticated encryption is recommended, in which case the user would use the AEAD API, not skcipher. Disk encryption is still a legitimate use for skcipher, but for that usually XTS is recommended. - Many other bugs and poor coding practices, such as not setting CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_MAY_SLEEP, unnecessarily allocating a heap buffer for the IV, unnecessary NULL checks, using a pointless wrapper struct, and forgetting to set an error code in one case.

crypto: hash - remove CRYPTO_ALG_TYPE_DIGEST

crypto: shash - remove shash_desc::flags

2019-04-25T07:38:12Z

The flags field in 'struct shash_desc' never actually does anything. The only ostensibly supported flag is CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_MAY_SLEEP. However, no shash algorithm ever sleeps, making this flag a no-op. With this being the case, inevitably some users who can't sleep wrongly pass MAY_SLEEP. These would all need to be fixed if any shash algorithm actually started sleeping. For example, the shash_ahash_*() functions, which wrap a shash algorithm with the ahash API, pass through MAY_SLEEP from the ahash API to the shash API. However, the shash functions are called under kmap_atomic(), so actually they're assumed to never sleep. Even if it turns out that some users do need preemption points while hashing large buffers, we could easily provide a helper function crypto_shash_update_large() which divides the data into smaller chunks and calls crypto_shash_update() and cond_resched() for each chunk. It's not necessary to have a flag in 'struct shash_desc', nor is it necessary to make individual shash algorithms aware of this at all. Therefore, remove shash_desc::flags, and document that the crypto_shash_*() functions can be called from any context. Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: skcipher - remove remnants of internal IV generators

2018-12-23T03:52:45Z

Remove dead code related to internal IV generators, which are no longer used since they've been replaced with the "seqiv" and "echainiv" templates. The removed code includes: - The "givcipher" (GIVCIPHER) algorithm type. No algorithms are registered with this type anymore, so it's unneeded. - The "const char *geniv" member of aead_alg, ablkcipher_alg, and blkcipher_alg. A few algorithms still set this, but it isn't used anymore except to show via /proc/crypto and CRYPTO_MSG_GETALG. Just hardcode "" or "" in those cases. - The 'skcipher_givcrypt_request' structure, which is never used. Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu
