("kernel: use macros from compiler.h instead of __attribute__((...))")
I submitted 4 total patches. They are part of task I've taken up to
increase compiler portability in the kernel. I've cleaned up the
subsystems under /kernel /mm /block and /security, this patch targets
/crypto.
There is <linux/compiler.h> which provides macros for various gcc specific
constructs. Eg: __weak for __attribute__((weak)). I've cleaned all
instances of gcc specific attributes with the right macros for the crypto
subsystem.
I had to make one additional change into compiler-gcc.h for the case when
one wants to use this: __attribute__((aligned) and not specify an alignment
factor. From the gcc docs, this will result in the largest alignment for
that data type on the target machine so I've named the macro
__aligned_largest. Please advise if another name is more appropriate.

This patch adds a chunk size parameter to aead algorithms, just
like the chunk size for skcipher algorithms.
However, unlike skcipher we do not currently export this to AEAD
users. It is only meant to be used by AEAD implementors for now.

As it stands the only non-type safe functions left in the new
AEAD interface are the cra_init/cra_exit functions. It means
exposing the ugly __crypto_aead_cast to every AEAD implementor.
This patch adds type-safe init/exit functions to AEAD. Existing
algorithms are unaffected while new implementations can simply
fill in these two instead of cra_init/cra_exit.

The function aead_geniv_alloc currently sets cra_type even for

AEAD algorithm implementors need to figure out a given algorithm's
IV size and maximum authentication size. During the transition
this is difficult to do as an algorithm could be new style or old
style.
This patch creates two helpers to make this easier.

This patch converts the seqiv IV generator to work with the new
AEAD interface where IV generators are just normal AEAD algorithms.
Full backwards compatibility is paramount at this point since
no users have yet switched over to the new interface. Nor can
they switch to the new interface until IV generation is fully
supported by it.
So this means we are adding two versions of seqiv alongside the
existing one. The first one is the one that will be used when
the underlying AEAD algorithm has switched over to the new AEAD
interface. The second one handles the current case where the
underlying AEAD algorithm still uses the old interface.
Both versions export themselves through the new AEAD interface.

This patch adds the basic structure of the new AEAD type. Unlike
the current version, there is no longer any concept of geniv. IV
generation will still be carried out by wrappers but they will be
normal AEAD algorithms that simply take the IPsec sequence number
as the IV.

This patch is the first step in the introduction of a new AEAD
alg type. Unlike normal conversions this patch only renames the
existing aead_alg structure because there are external references
to it.
Those references will be removed after this patch.

The primary user of AEAD, IPsec includes the IV in the AD in
most cases, except where it is implicitly authenticated by the
underlying algorithm.
The way it is currently implemented is a hack because we pass
the data in piecemeal and the underlying algorithms try to stitch
them back up into one piece.
This is why this patch is adding a new interface that allows a
single SG list to be passed in that contains everything so the
algorithm implementors do not have to stitch.
The new interface accepts a single source SG list and a single
destination SG list. Both must be laid out as follows:
AD, skipped data, plain/cipher text, ICV
The ICV is not present from the source during encryption and from
the destination during decryption.
For the top-level IPsec AEAD algorithm the plain/cipher text will
contain the generated (or received) IV.

This patch converts the top-level aead interface to the new style.
All user-level AEAD interface code have been moved into crypto/aead.h.
The allocation/free functions have switched over to the new way of
allocating tfms.
This patch also removes the double indrection on setkey so the
indirection now exists only at the alg level.
Apart from these there are no user-visible changes.

When the user explicitly states that they don't care whether the
algorithm has been tested (type = CRYPTO_ALG_TESTED and mask = 0),
there is a corner case where we may erroneously return ENOENT.
This patch fixes it by correcting the logic in the test.

Three errors resulting in kernel memory disclosure:
1/ The structures used for the netlink based crypto algorithm report API
are located on the stack. As snprintf() does not fill the remainder of
the buffer with null bytes, those stack bytes will be disclosed to users
of the API. Switch to strncpy() to fix this.
2/ crypto_report_one() does not initialize all field of struct
crypto_user_alg. Fix this to fix the heap info leak.
3/ For the module name we should copy only as many bytes as
module_name() returns -- not as much as the destination buffer could
hold. But the current code does not and therefore copies random data
from behind the end of the module name, as the module name is always
shorter than CRYPTO_MAX_ALG_NAME.
Also switch to use strncpy() to copy the algorithm's name and
driver_name. They are strings, after all.

We lookup algorithms with crypto_alg_mod_lookup() when instantiating via
crypto_add_alg(). However, algorithms that are wrapped by an IV genearator
(e.g. aead or genicv type algorithms) need special care. The userspace
process hangs until it gets a timeout when we use crypto_alg_mod_lookup()
to lookup these algorithms. So export the lookup functions for these
algorithms and use them in crypto_add_alg().

When an aead constructed through crypto_nivaead_default fails
its selftest, we'll loop forever trying to construct new aead
objects but failing because it already exists.
The crux of the issue is that once an aead fails the selftest,
we'll ignore it on the next run through crypto_aead_lookup and
attempt to construct a new aead.
We should instead return an error to the caller if we find an
an that has failed the test.
This bug hasn't manifested itself yet because we don't have any
test vectors for the existing nivaead algorithms. They're tested
through the underlying algorithms only.

Some algorithms always require manual IV construction. For instance,
the generic CCM algorithm requires the first byte of the IV to be manually
constructed. Such algorithms are always used by other algorithms equipped

This patch adds the underlying givcrypt operations for aead and associated
support elements. The rationale is identical to that of the skcipher
givcrypt operations, i.e., sometimes only the algorithm knows how the
IV should be generated.
A new request type aead_givcrypt_request is added which contains an
embedded aead_request structure with two new elements to support this
operation. The new elements are seq and giv. The seq field should
contain a strictly increasing 64-bit integer which may be used by
certain IV generators as an input value. The giv field will be used
to store the generated IV. It does not need to obey the alignment
requirements of the algorithm because it's not used during the operation.
The existing iv field must still be available as it will be used to store
intermediate IVs and the output IV if chaining is desired.

As it is authsize is an algorithm paramter which cannot be changed at
run-time. This is inconvenient because hardware that implements such
algorithms would have to register each authsize that they support
separately.
Since authsize is a property common to all AEAD algorithms, we can add
a function setauthsize that sets it at run-time, just like setkey.
This patch does exactly that and also changes authenc so that authsize
is no longer a parameter of its template.

This patch adds crypto_aead which is the interface for AEAD
(Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data) algorithms.
AEAD algorithms perform authentication and encryption in one
step. Traditionally users (such as IPsec) would use two
different crypto algorithms to perform these. With AEAD
this comes down to one algorithm and one operation.
Of course if traditional algorithms were used we'd still
be doing two operations underneath. However, real AEAD
algorithms may allow the underlying operations to be
optimised as well.
