Current implementation attempts to request keys from the keyring even when
security is not enabled. Change behavior so when security is disabled it
will skip key request.
Error messages seen when no keys are installed and libnvdimm is loaded:

The security operations are exported from libnvdimm/security.c to
libnvdimm/dimm_devs.c, and libnvdimm/security.c is optionally compiled
based on the CONFIG_NVDIMM_KEYS config symbol.
Rather than export the operations across compile objects, just move the
__security_store() entry point to live with the helpers.

An attempt to freeze DIMMs currently runs afoul of default blocking of
all security operations in the entry to the 'store' routine for the
'security' sysfs attribute.
The blanket blocking of all security operations while the DIMM is in
active use in a region is too restrictive. The only security operations
that need to be aware of the ->busy state are those that mutate the
state of data, i.e. erase and overwrite.
Refactor the ->busy checks to be applied at the entry common entry point
in __security_store() rather than each of the helper routines to enable
freeze to be run regardless of busy state.

In the process of debugging a system with an NVDIMM that was failing to
unlock it was found that the kernel is reporting 'locked' while the DIMM
security interface is 'frozen'. Unfortunately the security state is
tracked internally as an enum which prevents it from communicating the
difference between 'locked' and 'locked + frozen'. It follows that the
enum also prevents the kernel from communicating 'unlocked + frozen'
which would be useful for debugging why security operations like 'change
passphrase' are disabled.
Ditch the security state enum for a set of flags and introduce a new
sysfs attribute explicitly for the 'frozen' state. The regression risk
is low because the 'frozen' state was already blocked behind the
'locked' state, but will need to revisit if there were cases where
applications need 'frozen' to show up in the primary 'security'
attribute. The expectation is that communicating 'frozen' is mostly a
helper for debug and status monitoring.

Replace the uid/gid/perm permissions checking on a key with an ACL to allow
the SETATTR and SEARCH permissions to be split. This will also allow a
greater range of subjects to represented.
============
WHY DO THIS?
============
The problem is that SETATTR and SEARCH cover a slew of actions, not all of
which should be grouped together.
For SETATTR, this includes actions that are about controlling access to a
key:
(1) Changing a key's ownership.
(2) Changing a key's security information.
(3) Setting a keyring's restriction.
And actions that are about managing a key's lifetime:
(4) Setting an expiry time.
(5) Revoking a key.
and (proposed) managing a key as part of a cache:
(6) Invalidating a key.
Managing a key's lifetime doesn't really have anything to do with
controlling access to that key.
Expiry time is awkward since it's more about the lifetime of the content
and so, in some ways goes better with WRITE permission. It can, however,
be set unconditionally by a process with an appropriate authorisation token
for instantiating a key, and can also be set by the key type driver when a
key is instantiated, so lumping it with the access-controlling actions is
probably okay.
As for SEARCH permission, that currently covers:
(1) Finding keys in a keyring tree during a search.
(2) Permitting keyrings to be joined.
(3) Invalidation.
But these don't really belong together either, since these actions really
need to be controlled separately.
Finally, there are number of special cases to do with granting the
administrator special rights to invalidate or clear keys that I would like
to handle with the ACL rather than key flags and special checks.
===============
WHAT IS CHANGED
===============
The SETATTR permission is split to create two new permissions:
(1) SET_SECURITY - which allows the key's owner, group and ACL to be
changed and a restriction to be placed on a keyring.
(2) REVOKE - which allows a key to be revoked.
The SEARCH permission is split to create:
(1) SEARCH - which allows a keyring to be search and a key to be found.
(2) JOIN - which allows a keyring to be joined as a session keyring.
(3) INVAL - which allows a key to be invalidated.
The WRITE permission is also split to create:
(1) WRITE - which allows a key's content to be altered and links to be
added, removed and replaced in a keyring.
(2) CLEAR - which allows a keyring to be cleared completely. This is
split out to make it possible to give just this to an administrator.
(3) REVOKE - see above.
Keys acquire ACLs which consist of a series of ACEs, and all that apply are
unioned together. An ACE specifies a subject, such as:
(*) Possessor - permitted to anyone who 'possesses' a key
(*) Owner - permitted to the key owner
(*) Group - permitted to the key group
(*) Everyone - permitted to everyone
Note that 'Other' has been replaced with 'Everyone' on the assumption that
you wouldn't grant a permit to 'Other' that you wouldn't also grant to
everyone else.
Further subjects may be made available by later patches.
The ACE also specifies a permissions mask. The set of permissions is now:
VIEW Can view the key metadata
READ Can read the key content
WRITE Can update/modify the key content
SEARCH Can find the key by searching/requesting
LINK Can make a link to the key
SET_SECURITY Can change owner, ACL, expiry
INVAL Can invalidate
REVOKE Can revoke
JOIN Can join this keyring
CLEAR Can clear this keyring
The KEYCTL_SETPERM function is then deprecated.
The KEYCTL_SET_TIMEOUT function then is permitted if SET_SECURITY is set,
or if the caller has a valid instantiation auth token.
The KEYCTL_INVALIDATE function then requires INVAL.
The KEYCTL_REVOKE function then requires REVOKE.
The KEYCTL_JOIN_SESSION_KEYRING function then requires JOIN to join an
existing keyring.
The JOIN permission is enabled by default for session keyrings and manually
created keyrings only.
======================
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY
======================
To maintain backward compatibility, KEYCTL_SETPERM will translate the
permissions mask it is given into a new ACL for a key - unless
KEYCTL_SET_ACL has been called on that key, in which case an error will be
returned.
It will convert possessor, owner, group and other permissions into separate
ACEs, if each portion of the mask is non-zero.
SETATTR permission turns on all of INVAL, REVOKE and SET_SECURITY. WRITE
permission turns on WRITE, REVOKE and, if a keyring, CLEAR. JOIN is turned
on if a keyring is being altered.
The KEYCTL_DESCRIBE function translates the ACL back into a permissions
mask to return depending on possessor, owner, group and everyone ACEs.
It will make the following mappings:
(1) INVAL, JOIN -> SEARCH
(2) SET_SECURITY -> SETATTR
(3) REVOKE -> WRITE if SETATTR isn't already set
(4) CLEAR -> WRITE
Note that the value subsequently returned by KEYCTL_DESCRIBE may not match
the value set with KEYCTL_SETATTR.
=======
TESTING
=======
This passes the keyutils testsuite for all but a couple of tests:
(1) tests/keyctl/dh_compute/badargs: The first wrong-key-type test now
returns EOPNOTSUPP rather than ENOKEY as READ permission isn't removed
if the type doesn't have ->read(). You still can't actually read the
key.
(2) tests/keyctl/permitting/valid: The view-other-permissions test doesn't
work as Other has been replaced with Everyone in the ACL.

commands to use the zero-key. Helper functions are introduced to return the
data that points to the actual key payload or the zero_key. This helps

Add a zero key in order to standardize hardware that want a key of 0's to
be passed. Some platforms defaults to a zero-key with security enabled
rather than allow the OS to enable the security. The zero key would allow
us to manage those platform as well. This also adds a fix to secure erase
so it can use the zero key to do crypto erase. Some other security commands
already use zero keys. This introduces a standard zero-key to allow
unification of semantics cross nvdimm security commands.

The security implementation is too chatty. For example, the common case
is that security is not enabled / setup, and booting a qemu
configuration currently yields:
nvdimm nmem0: request_key() found no key
nvdimm nmem0: failed to unlock dimm: -126
nvdimm nmem1: request_key() found no key
nvdimm nmem1: failed to unlock dimm: -126
Convert all security related log messages to debug level.

With Intel DSM 1.8 [1] two new security DSMs are introduced. Enable/update
master passphrase and master secure erase. The master passphrase allows
a secure erase to be performed without the user passphrase that is set on
the NVDIMM. The commands of master_update and master_erase are added to
the sysfs knob in order to initiate the DSMs. They are similar in opeartion
mechanism compare to update and erase.

Add support for the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL "ovewrite" capability as
described by the Intel DSM spec v1.7. This will allow triggering of
overwrite on Intel NVDIMMs. The overwrite operation can take tens of
minutes. When the overwrite DSM is issued successfully, the NVDIMMs will
be unaccessible. The kernel will do backoff polling to detect when the
overwrite process is completed. According to the DSM spec v1.7, the 128G
NVDIMMs can take up to 15mins to perform overwrite and larger DIMMs will
take longer.
Given that overwrite puts the DIMM in an indeterminate state until it
completes introduce the NDD_SECURITY_OVERWRITE flag to prevent other
operations from executing when overwrite is happening. The
NDD_WORK_PENDING flag is added to denote that there is a device reference
on the nvdimm device for an async workqueue thread context.

Add support to unlock the dimm via the kernel key management APIs. The
passphrase is expected to be pulled from userspace through keyutils.
The key management and sysfs attributes are libnvdimm generic.
Encrypted keys are used to protect the nvdimm passphrase at rest. The
master key can be a trusted-key sealed in a TPM, preferred, or an
encrypted-key, more flexible, but more exposure to a potential attacker.
