2020-01-09	crypto: remove CRYPTO_TFM_RES_BAD_KEY_LEN	Eric Biggers	1	-3/+1
	The CRYPTO_TFM_RES_BAD_KEY_LEN flag was apparently meant as a way to make the ->setkey() functions provide more information about errors. However, no one actually checks for this flag, which makes it pointless. Also, many algorithms fail to set this flag when given a bad length key. Reviewing just the generic implementations, this is the case for aes-fixed-time, cbcmac, echainiv, nhpoly1305, pcrypt, rfc3686, rfc4309, rfc7539, rfc7539esp, salsa20, seqiv, and xcbc. But there are probably many more in arch/*/crypto/ and drivers/crypto/. Some algorithms can even set this flag when the key is the correct length. For example, authenc and authencesn set it when the key payload is malformed in any way (not just a bad length), the atmel-sha and ccree drivers can set it if a memory allocation fails, and the chelsio driver sets it for bad auth tag lengths, not just bad key lengths. So even if someone actually wanted to start checking this flag (which seems unlikely, since it's been unused for a long time), there would be a lot of work needed to get it working correctly. But it would probably be much better to go back to the drawing board and just define different return values, like -EINVAL if the key is invalid for the algorithm vs. -EKEYREJECTED if the key was rejected by a policy like "no weak keys". That would be much simpler, less error-prone, and easier to test. So just remove this flag.

2019-06-06	crypto: xxhash - Implement xxhash support	Nikolay Borisov	1	-0/+108
	xxhash is currently implemented as a self-contained module in /lib. This patch enables that module to be used as part of the generic kernel crypto framework. It adds a simple wrapper to the 64bit version. I've also added test vectors (with help from Nick Terrell). The upstream xxhash code is tested by running hashing operation on random 222 byte data with seed values of 0 and a prime number. The upstream test suite can be found at https://github.com/Cyan4973/xxHash/blob/cf46e0c/xxhsum.c#L664 Essentially hashing is run on data of length 0,1,14,222 with the aforementioned seed values 0 and prime 2654435761. The particular random 222 byte string was provided to me by Nick Terrell by reading /dev/random and the checksums were calculated by the upstream xxsum utility with the following bash script: dd if=/dev/random of=TEST_VECTOR bs=1 count=222 for a in 0 1; do for l in 0 1 14 222; do for s in 0 2654435761; do echo algo $a length $l seed $s; head -c $l TEST_VECTOR \| ~/projects/kernel/xxHash/xxhsum -H$a -s$s done done done This produces output as follows: algo 0 length 0 seed 0 02cc5d05 stdin algo 0 length 0 seed 2654435761 02cc5d05 stdin algo 0 length 1 seed 0 25201171 stdin algo 0 length 1 seed 2654435761 25201171 stdin algo 0 length 14 seed 0 c1d95975 stdin algo 0 length 14 seed 2654435761 c1d95975 stdin algo 0 length 222 seed 0 b38662a6 stdin algo 0 length 222 seed 2654435761 b38662a6 stdin algo 1 length 0 seed 0 ef46db3751d8e999 stdin algo 1 length 0 seed 2654435761 ac75fda2929b17ef stdin algo 1 length 1 seed 0 27c3f04c2881203a stdin algo 1 length 1 seed 2654435761 4a15ed26415dfe4d stdin algo 1 length 14 seed 0 3d33dc700231dfad stdin algo 1 length 14 seed 2654435761 ea5f7ddef9a64f80 stdin algo 1 length 222 seed 0 5f3d3c08ec2bef34 stdin algo 1 length 222 seed 2654435761 6a9df59664c7ed62 stdin algo 1 is xx64 variant, algo 0 is the 32 bit variant which is currently not hooked up.
