[PATCH 3.16 079/233] crypto: gcm - wait for crypto op not signal safe

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Sat Sep 09 2017 - 19:02:44 EST


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

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

From: Gilad Ben-Yossef <gilad@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit f3ad587070d6bd961ab942b3fd7a85d00dfc934b upstream.

crypto_gcm_setkey() was using wait_for_completion_interruptible() to
wait for completion of async crypto op but if a signal occurs it
may return before DMA ops of HW crypto provider finish, thus
corrupting the data buffer that is kfree'ed in this case.

Resolve this by using wait_for_completion() instead.
