<content type='text'>
commit 706024a52c614b478b63f7728d202532ce6591a9 upstream.

The initial Zinc patchset, after some mailing list discussion, contained
code to ensure that kernel_fpu_enable would not be kept on for more than
a 4k chunk, since it disables preemption. The choice of 4k isn't totally
scientific, but it's not a bad guess either, and it's what's used in
both the x86 poly1305, blake2s, and nhpoly1305 code already (in the form
of PAGE_SIZE, which this commit corrects to be explicitly 4k for the
former two).

Ard did some back of the envelope calculations and found that
at 5 cycles/byte (overestimate) on a 1ghz processor (pretty slow), 4k
means we have a maximum preemption disabling of 20us, which Sebastian
confirmed was probably a good limit.

Unfortunately the chunking appears to have been left out of the final
patchset that added the glue code. So, this commit adds it back in.

commit a9a8ba90fa5857c2c8a0e32eef2159cec717da11 upstream.

Rather than chunking via PAGE_SIZE, this commit changes the arch
implementations to chunk in explicit 4k parts, so that calculations on
maximum acceptable latency don't suddenly become invalid on platforms
where PAGE_SIZE isn't 4k, such as arm64.

<title>crypto: arm/chacha - fix build failured when kernel mode NEON is disabled</title>

<id>urn:sha1:0bc81767c5bd9d005fae1099fb39eb3688370cb1</id>
<content type='text'>
When the ARM accelerated ChaCha driver is built as part of a configuration
that has kernel mode NEON disabled, we expect the compiler to propagate
the build time constant expression IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_KERNEL_MODE_NEON) in
a way that eliminates all the cross-object references to the actual NEON
routines, which allows the chacha-neon-core.o object to be omitted from
the build entirely.

Unfortunately, this fails to work as expected in some cases, and we may
end up with a build error such as

  chacha-glue.c:(.text+0xc0): undefined reference to `chacha_4block_xor_neon'

caused by the fact that chacha_doneon() has not been eliminated from the
object code, even though it will never be called in practice.

Let's fix this by adding some IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_KERNEL_MODE_NEON) tests
that are not strictly needed from a logical point of view, but should
help the compiler infer that the NEON code paths are unreachable in
those cases.

This appears to be some kind of copy and paste error, and is actually
dead code.

Pre: f = 0 ⇒ (f &gt;&gt; 32) = 0
    f = (f &gt;&gt; 32) + le32_to_cpu(digest[0]);
Post: 0 ≤ f &lt; 2³²
    put_unaligned_le32(f, dst);

Pre: 0 ≤ f &lt; 2³² ⇒ (f &gt;&gt; 32) = 0
    f = (f &gt;&gt; 32) + le32_to_cpu(digest[1]);
Post: 0 ≤ f &lt; 2³²
    put_unaligned_le32(f, dst + 4);

Pre: 0 ≤ f &lt; 2³² ⇒ (f &gt;&gt; 32) = 0
    f = (f &gt;&gt; 32) + le32_to_cpu(digest[2]);
Post: 0 ≤ f &lt; 2³²
    put_unaligned_le32(f, dst + 8);

Pre: 0 ≤ f &lt; 2³² ⇒ (f &gt;&gt; 32) = 0
    f = (f &gt;&gt; 32) + le32_to_cpu(digest[3]);
Post: 0 ≤ f &lt; 2³²
    put_unaligned_le32(f, dst + 12);

Therefore this sequence is redundant. And Andy's code appears to handle
misalignment acceptably.

<title>crypto: remove propagation of CRYPTO_TFM_RES_* flags</title>

<content type='text'>
The CRYPTO_TFM_RES_* flags were apparently meant as a way to make the
-&gt;setkey() functions provide more information about errors.  But these
flags weren't actually being used or tested, and in many cases they
weren't being set correctly anyway.  So they've now been removed.

Also, if someone ever actually needs to start better distinguishing
-&gt;setkey() errors (which is somewhat unlikely, as this has been unneeded
for a long time), we'd be much better off just defining different return
values, like -EINVAL if the key is invalid for the algorithm vs.
-EKEYREJECTED if the key was rejected by a policy like "no weak keys".
That would be much simpler, less error-prone, and easier to test.

So just remove CRYPTO_TFM_RES_MASK and all the unneeded logic that
propagates these flags around.

<content type='text'>
The CRYPTO_TFM_RES_BAD_KEY_LEN flag was apparently meant as a way to
make the -&gt;setkey() functions provide more information about errors.

However, no one actually checks for this flag, which makes it pointless.

Also, many algorithms fail to set this flag when given a bad length key.
Reviewing just the generic implementations, this is the case for
aes-fixed-time, cbcmac, echainiv, nhpoly1305, pcrypt, rfc3686, rfc4309,
rfc7539, rfc7539esp, salsa20, seqiv, and xcbc.  But there are probably
many more in arch/*/crypto/ and drivers/crypto/.

Some algorithms can even set this flag when the key is the correct
length.  For example, authenc and authencesn set it when the key payload
is malformed in any way (not just a bad length), the atmel-sha and ccree
drivers can set it if a memory allocation fails, and the chelsio driver
sets it for bad auth tag lengths, not just bad key lengths.

So even if someone actually wanted to start checking this flag (which
seems unlikely, since it's been unused for a long time), there would be
a lot of work needed to get it working correctly.  But it would probably
be much better to go back to the drawing board and just define different
return values, like -EINVAL if the key is invalid for the algorithm vs.
-EKEYREJECTED if the key was rejected by a policy like "no weak keys".
That would be much simpler, less error-prone, and easier to test.

So just remove this flag.

Somehow this was forgotten when Zinc was being split into oddly shaped
pieces, resulting in linker errors. The x86_64 glue has a specific key
generation implementation, but the Arm one does not. However, it can
still receive the NEON speedups by calling the ordinary DH function
using the base point.

For glue code that's used by Zinc, the actual Crypto API functions might
not necessarily exist, and don't need to exist either. Before this
patch, there are valid build configurations that lead to a unbuildable
kernel. This fixes it to conditionalize those symbols on the existence
of the proper config entry.
