commit d49ec52ff6ddcda178fc2476a109cf1bd1fa19ed upstream

The DM crypt target accesses memory beyond allocated space resulting in
a crash on 32 bit x86 systems.

This bug is very old (it dates back to 2.6.25 commit 3a7f6c990ad04 "dm
crypt: use async crypto").  However, this bug was masked by the fact
that kmalloc rounds the size up to the next power of two.  This bug
wasn't exposed until 3.17-rc1 commit 298a9fa08a ("dm crypt: use per-bio
data").  By switching to using per-bio data there was no longer any
padding beyond the end of a dm-crypt allocated memory block.

To minimize allocation overhead dm-crypt puts several structures into one
block allocated with kmalloc.  The block holds struct ablkcipher_request,
cipher-specific scratch pad (crypto_ablkcipher_reqsize(any_tfm(cc))),
struct dm_crypt_request and an initialization vector.

The variable dmreq_start is set to offset of struct dm_crypt_request
within this memory block.  dm-crypt allocates the block with this size:
cc-&gt;dmreq_start + sizeof(struct dm_crypt_request) + cc-&gt;iv_size.

When accessing the initialization vector, dm-crypt uses the function
iv_of_dmreq, which performs this calculation: ALIGN((unsigned long)(dmreq
+ 1), crypto_ablkcipher_alignmask(any_tfm(cc)) + 1).

dm-crypt allocated "cc-&gt;iv_size" bytes beyond the end of dm_crypt_request
structure.  However, when dm-crypt accesses the initialization vector, it
takes a pointer to the end of dm_crypt_request, aligns it, and then uses
it as the initialization vector.  If the end of dm_crypt_request is not
aligned on a crypto_ablkcipher_alignmask(any_tfm(cc)) boundary the
alignment causes the initialization vector to point beyond the allocated
space.

Fix this bug by calculating the variable iv_size_padding and adding it
to the allocated size.

Also correct the alignment of dm_crypt_request.  struct dm_crypt_request
is specific to dm-crypt (it isn't used by the crypto subsystem at all),
so it is aligned on __alignof__(struct dm_crypt_request).

commit 542da317668c35036e8471822a564b609d05af66 upstream.

The "wipe key" message is used to wipe the volume key from memory
temporarily, for example when suspending to RAM.

But the initialisation vector in ESSIV mode is calculated from the
hashed volume key, so the wipe message should wipe this IV key too and
reinitialise it when the volume key is reinstated.

This patch adds an IV wipe method called from a wipe message callback.
ESSIV is then reinitialised using the init function added by the
last patch.

<content type='text'>
commit b95bf2d3d5a48b095bffe2a0cd8c40453cf59557 upstream.

This patch separates the construction of IV from its initialisation.
(For ESSIV it is a hash calculation based on volume key.)

Constructor code now preallocates hash tfm and salt array
and saves it in a private IV structure.

The next patch requires this to reinitialise the wiped IV
without reallocating memory when resuming a suspended device.

commit 5861f1be00b3b70f8ab5e5a81392a6cf69666cd2 upstream.

Use kzfree for salt deallocation because it is derived from the volume
key.  Use a common error path in ESSIV constructor.

Required by a later patch which fixes the way key material is wiped
from memory.

commit 6047359277517c4e56d8bfd6ea4966d7a3924151 upstream.

Define private structures for IV so it's easy to add further attributes
in a following patch which fixes the way key material is wiped from
memory.  Also move ESSIV destructor and remove unnecessary 'status'
operation.

There are no functional changes in this patch.

<id>urn:sha1:5dea271b6d87bd1d79a59c1d5baac2596a841c37</id>
<content type='text'>
Incorrect device area lengths are being passed to device_area_is_valid().

The regression appeared in 2.6.31-rc1 through commit
754c5fc7ebb417b23601a6222a6005cc2e7f2913.

With the dm-stripe target, the size of the target (ti-&gt;len) was used
instead of the stripe_width (ti-&gt;len/#stripes).  An example of a
consequent incorrect error message is:

  device-mapper: table: 254:0: sdb too small for target

Commit 1faa16d22877f4839bd433547d770c676d1d964c accidentally broke
the bdi congestion wait queue logic, causing us to wait on congestion
for WRITE (== 1) when we really wanted BLK_RW_ASYNC (== 0) instead.

Add .iterate_devices to 'struct target_type' to allow a function to be
called for all devices in a DM target.  Implemented it for all targets
except those in dm-snap.c (origin and snapshot).

(The raid1 version number jumps to 1.12 because we originally reserved
1.1 to 1.11 for 'block_on_error' but ended up using 'handle_errors'
instead.)
