[PATCH v2 3/4] crypto: skcipher - Remove VLA usage for SKCIPHER_REQUEST_ON_STACK

From: Kees Cook
Date: Thu Sep 06 2018 - 18:59:22 EST


In the quest to remove all stack VLA usage from the kernel[1], this caps
the non-ASYNC skcipher request size similar to other limits and adds a
sanity check at usage. After a review of all non-ASYNC algorithm callers
of crypto_skcipher_set_reqsize(), the largest appears to be 384:

4 struct sun4i_cipher_req_ctx
96 struct crypto_rfc3686_req_ctx
375 cts:
160 crypto_skcipher_blocksize(cipher) (max)
152 struct crypto_cts_reqctx
63 align_mask (max)
384 struct rctx (lrw, xts)
