[ Upstream commit 8f4f68e788c3a7a696546291258bfa5fdb215523 ]

We found a hungtask bug in test_aead_vec_cfg as follows:

INFO: task cryptomgr_test:391009 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
"echo 0 &gt; /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.

 Kernel panic - not syncing: hung_task: blocked tasks

For padata_do_parallel, when the return err is 0 or -EBUSY, it will call
wait_for_completion(&amp;wait-&gt;completion) in test_aead_vec_cfg. In normal
case, aead_request_complete() will be called in pcrypt_aead_serial and the
return err is 0 for padata_do_parallel. But, when pinst-&gt;flags is
PADATA_RESET, the return err is -EBUSY for padata_do_parallel, and it
won't call aead_request_complete(). Therefore, test_aead_vec_cfg will
hung at wait_for_completion(&amp;wait-&gt;completion), which will cause
hungtask.

The problem comes as following:
(padata_do_parallel)                 |
    rcu_read_lock_bh();              |
    err = -EINVAL;                   |   (padata_replace)
                                     |     pinst-&gt;flags |= PADATA_RESET;
    err = -EBUSY                     |
    if (pinst-&gt;flags &amp; PADATA_RESET) |
        rcu_read_unlock_bh()         |
        return err

In order to resolve the problem, we replace the return err -EBUSY with
-EAGAIN, which means parallel_data is changing, and the caller should call
it again.

v3:
remove retry and just change the return err.
v2:
introduce padata_try_do_parallel() in pcrypt_aead_encrypt and
pcrypt_aead_decrypt to solve the hungtask.

<title>crypto: pcrypt - Delay write to padata-&gt;info</title>

[ Upstream commit 68b6dea802cea0dbdd8bd7ccc60716b5a32a5d8a ]

These three events can race when pcrypt is used multiple times in a
template ("pcrypt(pcrypt(...))"):

  1.  [taskA] The caller makes the crypto request via crypto_aead_encrypt()
  2.  [kworkerB] padata serializes the inner pcrypt request
  3.  [kworkerC] padata serializes the outer pcrypt request

3 might finish before the call to crypto_aead_encrypt() returns in 1,
resulting in two possible issues.

First, a use-after-free of the crypto request's memory when, for
example, taskA writes to the outer pcrypt request's padata-&gt;info in
pcrypt_aead_enc() after kworkerC completes the request.

Second, the outer pcrypt request overwrites the inner pcrypt request's
return code with -EINPROGRESS, making a successful request appear to
fail.  For instance, kworkerB writes the outer pcrypt request's
padata-&gt;info in pcrypt_aead_done() and then taskA overwrites it
in pcrypt_aead_enc().

Avoid both situations by delaying the write of padata-&gt;info until after
the inner crypto request's return code is checked.  This prevents the
use-after-free by not touching the crypto request's memory after the
next-inner crypto request is made, and stops padata-&gt;info from being
overwritten.

[ Upstream commit 07bfd9bdf568a38d9440c607b72342036011f727 ]

On module unload of pcrypt we must unregister the crypto algorithms
first and then tear down the padata structure.  As otherwise the
crypto algorithms are still alive and can be used while the padata
structure is being freed.

embedded in it causing issues when parsing the non-existent arguments
to these.  Follow best practice by using the "%s" format string for
the string 'name'.

commit d76c68109f37cb85b243a1cf0f40313afd2bae68 upstream.

pcrypt is using the old way of freeing instances, where the -&gt;free()
method specified in the 'struct crypto_template' is passed a pointer to
the 'struct crypto_instance'.  But the crypto_instance is being
kfree()'d directly, which is incorrect because the memory was actually
allocated as an aead_instance, which contains the crypto_instance at a
nonzero offset.  Thus, the wrong pointer was being kfree()'d.

Fix it by switching to the new way to free aead_instance's where the
-&gt;free() method is specified in the aead_instance itself.
