Some ciphers actually support encrypting zero length plaintexts. For
example, many AEAD modes support this. The resulting ciphertext for
those winds up being only the authentication tag, which is a result of
the key, the iv, the additional data, and the fact that the plaintext
had zero length. The blkcipher constructors won't copy the IV to the
right place, however, when using a zero length input, resulting in
some significant problems when ciphers call their initialization
routines, only to find that the ->iv parameter is uninitialized. One
such example of this would be using chacha20poly1305 with a zero length
input, which then calls chacha20, which calls the key setup routine,
which eventually OOPSes due to the uninitialized ->iv member.

Currently a number of Crypto API operations may fail when a signal
occurs. This causes nasty problems as the caller of those operations
are often not in a good position to restart the operation.
In fact there is currently no need for those operations to be
interrupted by user signals at all. All we need is for them to
be killable.
This patch replaces the relevant calls of signal_pending with
fatal_signal_pending, and wait_for_completion_interruptible with
wait_for_completion_killable, respectively.

Currently for skcipher IV generators they must provide givencrypt
as that is the whole point. We are currently replacing skcipher
IV generators with explicit IV generators. In order to maintain
backwards compatibility, we need to allow the IV generators to
still function as a normal skcipher when the RNG Is not present
(e.g., in the initramfs during boot). IOW everything but givencrypt
and givdecrypt will still work but those two will fail.
Therefore this patch assigns a default givencrypt that simply
returns an error should it be NULL.

Previously we would use eseqiv on all async ciphers in all cases,
and sync ciphers if we have more than one CPU. This meant that
chainiv is only used in the case of sync ciphers on a UP machine.
As chainiv may aid attackers by making the IV predictable, even
though this risk itself is small, the above usage pattern causes
it to further leak information about the host.
This patch addresses these issues by using eseqiv even if we're
on a UP machine.

Three errors resulting in kernel memory disclosure:
1/ The structures used for the netlink based crypto algorithm report API
are located on the stack. As snprintf() does not fill the remainder of
the buffer with null bytes, those stack bytes will be disclosed to users
of the API. Switch to strncpy() to fix this.
2/ crypto_report_one() does not initialize all field of struct
crypto_user_alg. Fix this to fix the heap info leak.
3/ For the module name we should copy only as many bytes as
module_name() returns -- not as much as the destination buffer could
hold. But the current code does not and therefore copies random data
from behind the end of the module name, as the module name is always
shorter than CRYPTO_MAX_ALG_NAME.
Also switch to use strncpy() to copy the algorithm's name and
driver_name. They are strings, after all.

We lookup algorithms with crypto_alg_mod_lookup() when instantiating via

to lookup these algorithms. So export the lookup functions for these
algorithms and use them in crypto_add_alg().

These are akin to the blkcipher_walk helpers.
The main differences in the async variant are:
1) Only physical walking is supported. We can't hold on to
kmap mappings across the async operation to support virtual
ablkcipher_walk operations anyways.
2) Bounce buffers used for async more need to be persistent and
freed at a later point in time when the async op completes.
Therefore we maintain a list of writeback buffers and require
that the ablkcipher_walk user call the 'complete' operation
so we can copy the bounce buffers out to the real buffers and
free up the bounce buffer chunks.
These interfaces will be used by the new Niagara2 crypto driver.

Recently we switched to using eseqiv on SMP machines in preference
over chainiv. However, eseqiv does not support stream ciphers so
they should still default to chainiv.
This patch applies the same check as done by eseqiv to weed out
the stream ciphers. In particular, all algorithms where the IV
size is not equal to the block size will now default to chainiv.

As it stands we use chainiv for sync algorithms and eseqiv for
async algorithms. However, when there is more than one CPU
chainiv forces all processing to be serialised which is usually
not what you want. Also, the added overhead of eseqiv isn't that
great.
Therefore this patch changes the default sync geniv on SMP machines
to eseqiv. For the odd situation where the overhead is unacceptable
then chainiv is still available as an option.
Note that on UP machines chainiv is still preferred over eseqiv
for sync algorithms.

When a sync givcipher algorithm is requested, if an async version
of the same algorithm already exists, then we will loop forever
without ever constructing the sync version based on a blkcipher.
This is because we did not include the requested type/mask when
getting a larval for the geniv algorithm that is to be constructed.

When an skcipher constructed through crypto_givcipher_default fails
its selftest, we'll loop forever trying to construct new skcipher
objects but failing because it already exists.
The crux of the issue is that once a givcipher fails the selftest,
we'll ignore it on the next run through crypto_skcipher_lookup and
attempt to construct a new givcipher.
We should instead return an error to the caller if we find a
givcipher that has failed the test.

This patch makes crypto_alloc_ablkcipher/crypto_grab_skcipher always
return algorithms that are capable of generating their own IVs through
givencrypt and givdecrypt. Each algorithm may specify its default IV
generator through the geniv field.
For algorithms that do not set the geniv field, the blkcipher layer will
pick a default. Currently it's chainiv for synchronous algorithms and
eseqiv for asynchronous algorithms. Note that if these wrappers do not
work on an algorithm then that algorithm must specify its own geniv or
it can't be used at all.

Different block cipher modes have different requirements for intialisation
vectors. For example, CBC can use a simple randomly generated IV while
modes such as CTR must use an IV generation mechanisms that give a stronger
guarantee on the lack of collisions. Furthermore, disk encryption modes
have their own IV generation algorithms.
Up until now IV generation has been left to the users of the symmetric
key cipher API. This is inconvenient as the number of block cipher modes
increase because the user needs to be aware of which mode is supposed to
be paired with which IV generation algorithm.
Therefore it makes sense to integrate the IV generation into the crypto
API. This patch takes the first step in that direction by creating two
new ablkcipher operations, givencrypt and givdecrypt that generates an
IV before performing the actual encryption or decryption.
The operations are currently not exposed to the user. That will be done
once the underlying functionality has actually been implemented.
It also creates the underlying givcipher type. Algorithms that directly
generate IVs would use it instead of ablkcipher. All other algorithms
(including all existing ones) would generate a givcipher algorithm upon
registration. This givcipher algorithm will be constructed from the geniv
string that's stored in every algorithm. That string will locate a template
which is instantiated by the blkcipher/ablkcipher algorithm in question to
give a givcipher algorithm.

Note: From now on the collective of ablkcipher/blkcipher/givcipher will
be known as skcipher, i.e., symmetric key cipher. The name blkcipher has
always been much of a misnomer since it supports stream ciphers too.
This patch adds the function crypto_grab_skcipher as a new way of getting
an ablkcipher spawn. The problem is that previously we did this in two
steps, first getting the algorithm and then calling crypto_init_spawn.
This meant that each spawn user had to be aware of what type and mask to
use for these two steps. This is difficult and also presents a problem
when the type/mask changes as they're about to be for IV generators.
The new interface does both steps together just like crypto_alloc_ablkcipher.
As a side-effect this also allows us to be stronger on type enforcement
for spawns. For now this is only done for ablkcipher but it's trivial
to extend for other types.
This patch also moves the type/mask logic for skcipher into the helpers
crypto_skcipher_type and crypto_skcipher_mask.
Finally this patch introduces the function crypto_require_sync to determine
whether the user is specifically requesting a sync algorithm.
