<content type='text'>
Simplify the error handling in crypto_rfc4543_create() by taking
advantage of crypto_grab_aead() now handling an ERR_PTR() name and by
taking advantage of crypto_drop_aead() now accepting (as a no-op) a
spawn that hasn't been grabbed yet.

Conveniently, this eliminates the 'ccm_name' variable which was
incorrectly named (it should have been 'gcm_name').

Also fix a weird case where a line was terminated by a comma rather than
a semicolon, causing the statement to be continued on the next line.
Fortunately the code still behaved as intended, though.

Make the gcm and gcm_base templates use the new function
crypto_grab_ahash() to initialize their ahash spawn.

This is needed to make all spawns be initialized in a consistent way.

Also simplify the error handling by taking advantage of crypto_drop_*()
now accepting (as a no-op) spawns that haven't been initialized yet.

<title>crypto: aead - pass instance to crypto_grab_aead()</title>

Initializing a crypto_aead_spawn currently requires:

1. Set spawn-&gt;base.inst to point to the instance.
2. Call crypto_grab_aead().

But there's no reason for these steps to be separate, and in fact this
unneeded complication has caused at least one bug, the one fixed by
commit 6db43410179b ("crypto: adiantum - initialize crypto_spawn::inst")

So just make crypto_grab_aead() take the instance as an argument.

To keep the function calls from getting too unwieldy due to this extra
argument, also introduce a 'mask' variable into the affected places
which weren't already using one.

<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'>
Based on seqiv, IPsec ESP and rfc4543/rfc4106 the assoclen can be 16 or
20 bytes.

From esp4/esp6, assoclen is sizeof IP Header. This includes spi, seq_no
and extended seq_no, that is 8 or 12 bytes.
In seqiv, to asscolen is added the IV size (8 bytes).
Therefore, the assoclen, for rfc4543, should be restricted to 16 or 20
bytes, as for rfc4106.

<title>crypto: gcm - fix incompatibility between "gcm" and "gcm_base"</title>

<id>f699594d436960160f6d5ba84ed4a222f20d11cd</id>
<content type='text'>
GCM instances can be created by either the "gcm" template, which only
allows choosing the block cipher, e.g. "gcm(aes)"; or by "gcm_base",
which allows choosing the ctr and ghash implementations, e.g.
"gcm_base(ctr(aes-generic),ghash-generic)".

However, a "gcm_base" instance prevents a "gcm" instance from being
registered using the same implementations.  Nor will the instance be
found by lookups of "gcm".  This can be used as a denial of service.
Moreover, "gcm_base" instances are never tested by the crypto
self-tests, even if there are compatible "gcm" tests.

The root cause of these problems is that instances of the two templates
use different cra_names.  Therefore, fix these problems by making
"gcm_base" instances set the same cra_name as "gcm" instances, e.g.
"gcm(aes)" instead of "gcm_base(ctr(aes-generic),ghash-generic)".

This requires extracting the block cipher name from the name of the ctr
algorithm.  It also requires starting to verify that the algorithms are
really ctr and ghash, not something else entirely.  But it would be
bizarre if anyone were actually using non-gcm-compatible algorithms with
gcm_base, so this shouldn't break anyone in practice.
