2008-02-23[CRYPTO] skcipher: Move chainiv/seqiv into crypto_blkcipher moduleHerbert Xu
For compatibility with dm-crypt initramfs setups it is useful to merge chainiv/seqiv into the crypto_blkcipher module. Since they're required by most algorithms anyway this is an acceptable trade-off. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2008-01-11[CRYPTO] skcipher: Create default givcipher instancesHerbert Xu
This patch makes crypto_alloc_ablkcipher/crypto_grab_skcipher always return algorithms that are capable of generating their own IVs through givencrypt and givdecrypt. Each algorithm may specify its default IV generator through the geniv field. For algorithms that do not set the geniv field, the blkcipher layer will pick a default. Currently it's chainiv for synchronous algorithms and eseqiv for asynchronous algorithms. Note that if these wrappers do not work on an algorithm then that algorithm must specify its own geniv or it can't be used at all. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2008-01-11[CRYPTO] skcipher: Add skcipher_geniv_alloc/skcipher_geniv_freeHerbert Xu
This patch creates the infrastructure to help the construction of givcipher templates that wrap around existing blkcipher/ablkcipher algorithms by adding an IV generator to them. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2008-01-11[CRYPTO] skcipher: Added geniv fieldHerbert Xu
This patch introduces the geniv field which indicates the default IV generator for each algorithm. It should point to a string that is not freed as long as the algorithm is registered. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2008-01-11[CRYPTO] scatterwalk: Move scatterwalk.h to linux/cryptoHerbert Xu
The scatterwalk infrastructure is used by algorithms so it needs to move out of crypto for future users that may live in drivers/crypto or asm/*/crypto. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2008-01-11[CRYPTO] ablkcipher: Add distinct ABLKCIPHER typeHerbert Xu
Up until now we have ablkcipher algorithms have been identified as type BLKCIPHER with the ASYNC bit set. This is suboptimal because ablkcipher refers to two things. On the one hand it refers to the top-level ablkcipher interface with requests. On the other hand it refers to and algorithm type underneath. As it is you cannot request a synchronous block cipher algorithm with the ablkcipher interface on top. This is a problem because we want to be able to eventually phase out the blkcipher top-level interface. This patch fixes this by making ABLKCIPHER its own type, just as we have distinct types for HASH and DIGEST. The type it associated with the algorithm implementation only. Which top-level interface is used for synchronous block ciphers is then determined by the mask that's used. If it's a specific mask then the old blkcipher interface is given, otherwise we go with the new ablkcipher interface. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2007-10-10[CRYPTO] blkcipher: Added blkcipher_walk_virt_blockHerbert Xu
This patch adds the helper blkcipher_walk_virt_block which is similar to blkcipher_walk_virt but uses a supplied block size instead of the block size of the block cipher. This is useful for CTR where the block size is 1 but we still want to walk by the block size of the underlying cipher. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2007-10-10[CRYPTO] blkcipher: Increase kmalloc amount to aligned block sizeHerbert Xu
Now that the block size is no longer a multiple of the alignment, we need to increase the kmalloc amount in blkcipher_next_slow to use the aligned block size. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2007-10-10[CRYPTO] blkcipher: Remove alignment restriction on block sizeHerbert Xu
Previously we assumed for convenience that the block size is a multiple of the algorithm's required alignment. With the pending addition of CTR this will no longer be the case as the block size will be 1 due to it being a stream cipher. However, the alignment requirement will be that of the underlying implementation which will most likely be greater than 1. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2007-10-10[CRYPTO] blkcipher: Use max() in blkcipher_get_spot() to state the intentionIngo Oeser
Use max in blkcipher_get_spot() instead of open coding it. Signed-off-by: Ingo Oeser <ioe-lkml@rameria.de> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2007-10-10[CRYPTO] api: Add missing headers for setkey_unalignedHerbert Xu
This patch ensures that kernel.h and slab.h are included for the setkey_unaligned function. It also breaks a couple of long lines. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2007-09-10[CRYPTO] blkcipher: Fix inverted test in blkcipher_get_spotHerbert Xu
The previous patch had the conditional inverted. This patch fixes it so that we return the original position if it does not straddle a page. Thanks to Bob Gilligan for spotting this. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2007-09-09[CRYPTO] blkcipher: Fix handling of kmalloc page straddlingHerbert Xu
The function blkcipher_get_spot tries to return a buffer of the specified length that does not straddle a page. It has an off-by-one bug so it may advance a page unnecessarily. What's worse, one of its callers doesn't provide a buffer that's sufficiently long for this operation. This patch fixes both problems. Thanks to Bob Gilligan for diagnosing this problem and providing a fix. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2007-08-06[CRYPTO] api: fix writting into unallocated memory in setkey_alignedSebastian Siewior
setkey_unaligned() commited in ca7c39385ce1a7b44894a4b225a4608624e90730 overwrites unallocated memory in the following memset() because I used the wrong buffer length. Signed-off-by: Sebastian Siewior <sebastian@breakpoint.cc> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2007-07-11[CRYPTO] api: Handle unaligned keys in setkeySebastian Siewior
setkey() in {cipher,blkcipher,ablkcipher,hash}.c does not respect the requested alignment by the algorithm. This patch fixes it. The extra memory is allocated by kmalloc() with GFP_ATOMIC flag.

2007-05-02[CRYPTO] api: Add async block cipher interfaceHerbert Xu
This patch adds the frontend interface for asynchronous block ciphers. In addition to the usual block cipher parameters, there is a callback function pointer and a data pointer. The callback will be invoked only if the encrypt/decrypt handlers return -EINPROGRESS. In other words, if the return value of zero the completion handler (or the equivalent code) needs to be invoked by the caller. The request structure is allocated and freed by the caller. Its size is determined by calling crypto_ablkcipher_reqsize(). The helpers ablkcipher_request_alloc/ablkcipher_request_free can be used to manage the memory for a request.

2007-05-02[CRYPTO] api: Proc functions should be marked as unusedHerbert Xu
The proc functions were incorrectly marked as used rather than unused. They may be unused if proc is disabled. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2007-02-07[CRYPTO] api: Allow multiple frontends per backendHerbert Xu
This patch adds support for multiple frontend types for each backend algorithm by passing the type and mask through to the backend type init function. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2007-02-07[CRYPTO] all: Check for usage in hard IRQ contextHerbert Xu
Using blkcipher/hash crypto operations in hard IRQ context can lead to random memory corruption due to the reuse of kmap_atomic slots. Since crypto operations were never meant to be used in hard IRQ contexts, this patch checks for such usage and returns an error before kmap_atomic is performed.

2006-09-21[CRYPTO] cipher: Added block cipher typeHerbert Xu
This patch adds the new type of block ciphers. Unlike current cipher algorithms which operate on a single block at a time, block ciphers operate on an arbitrarily long linear area of data. As it is block-based, it will skip any data remaining at the end which cannot form a block. The block cipher has one major difference when compared to the existing block cipher implementation. The sg walking is now performed by the algorithm rather than the cipher mid-layer. This is needed for drivers that directly support sg lists. It also improves performance for all algorithms as it reduces the total number of indirect calls by one. In future the existing cipher algorithm will be converted to only have a single-block interface. This will be done after all existing users have switched over to the new block cipher type.
