[PATCH 3.16 051/370] dm crypt: mark key as invalid until properly loaded

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Fri Mar 10 2017 - 09:29:31 EST


3.16.42-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ondrej Kozina <okozina@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 265e9098bac02bc5e36cda21fdbad34cb5b2f48d upstream.

In crypt_set_key(), if a failure occurs while replacing the old key
(e.g. tfm->setkey() fails) the key must not have DM_CRYPT_KEY_VALID flag
set. Otherwise, the crypto layer would have an invalid key that still
has DM_CRYPT_KEY_VALID flag set.
