[RFC PATCH 0/2] crypto: caam - fix cts(cbc(aes)) with CAAM driver

[David Gstir]

Hi!

While testing fscrypt's filename encryption, I noticed that the implementation
of cts(cbc(aes)) is broken when the CAAM hardware crypto driver is enabled.
Some digging showed that the refactoring of crypto/cts.c in v4.8 
(commit 0605c41cc53ca) exposed some problems with CAAM's aes-cbc
implementation. This can be tested quite easily by loading the tcrypt
module with mode=38. Looks like the cts mode is not used very often
and this went unnoticed since 4.8...

This patch series is an attempt to fix that and get cts(cbc(aes)) working
properly again when the CAAM driver is enabled.

Specifically, the issues are:

1) The cts implementation assumes ->info of ablkcipher_request (or ->iv of
   skcipher_request respectively) to be set to the last ciphertext block when
   the aes-cbc encryption is finished. Meaning that ->info is changed by the
   aes-cbc code. The CAAM driver does not do that and leaves ->info as-is.

   It is not fully clear to me yet if this is a requirement of the crypto API,
   or if this is just a side effect that is exploited by the cts implementation?

   For now, I assumed it is a requirement of the crypto API since I've seen
   other crypto drivers (e.g. AMD's CCP) do that. So the patch fixes the CAAM
   crypto driver accordingly.

   Also, the aead code in the CAAM driver, more specifically the gcm mode code
   seems to have the same flaw, so it'll need a similar fix in case.


2) The cts implementation uses aes-cbc twice to perform its job. The second
   time, it is called from within the callback of the first call to aes-cbc.
   This usage is not properly handled in the CAAM driver which triggers the
   BUG below.

   My current proposal is to use in_interrupt() to detect such cases and set
   the k*alloc flags accordingly. However, since using in_interrupt() is not
   really nice, I'm wondering if there is a better way to handle this?


Thanks,
David
