commit 8088d3dd4d7c6933a65aa169393b5d88d8065672 upstream.

scatterwalk_done() is only meant to be called after a nonzero number of
bytes have been processed, since scatterwalk_pagedone() will flush the
dcache of the *previous* page.  But in the error case of
skcipher_walk_done(), e.g. if the input wasn't an integer number of
blocks, scatterwalk_done() was actually called after advancing 0 bytes.
This caused a crash ("BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request")
during '!PageSlab(page)' on architectures like arm and arm64 that define
ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE, provided that the input was
page-aligned as in that case walk-&gt;offset == 0.

Fix it by reorganizing skcipher_walk_done() to skip the
scatterwalk_advance() and scatterwalk_done() if an error has occurred.

This bug was found by syzkaller fuzzing.

Reproducer, assuming ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE:

	#include &lt;linux/if_alg.h&gt;
	#include &lt;sys/socket.h&gt;
	#include &lt;unistd.h&gt;

	int main()
	{
		struct sockaddr_alg addr = {
			.salg_type = "skcipher",
			.salg_name = "cbc(aes-generic)",
		};
		char buffer[4096] __attribute__((aligned(4096))) = { 0 };
		int fd;

		fd = socket(AF_ALG, SOCK_SEQPACKET, 0);
		bind(fd, (void *)&amp;addr, sizeof(addr));
		setsockopt(fd, SOL_ALG, ALG_SET_KEY, buffer, 16);
		fd = accept(fd, NULL, NULL);
		write(fd, buffer, 15);
		read(fd, buffer, 15);
	}

commit 0567fc9e90b9b1c8dbce8a5468758e6206744d4a upstream.

The ALIGN() macro needs to be passed the alignment, not the alignmask
(which is the alignment minus 1).

<title>crypto: vmac - separate tfm and request context</title>

commit bb29648102335586e9a66289a1d98a0cb392b6e5 upstream.

syzbot reported a crash in vmac_final() when multiple threads
concurrently use the same "vmac(aes)" transform through AF_ALG.  The bug
is pretty fundamental: the VMAC template doesn't separate per-request
state from per-tfm (per-key) state like the other hash algorithms do,
but rather stores it all in the tfm context.  That's wrong.

Also, vmac_final() incorrectly zeroes most of the state including the
derived keys and cached pseudorandom pad.  Therefore, only the first
VMAC invocation with a given key calculates the correct digest.

Fix these bugs by splitting the per-tfm state from the per-request state
and using the proper init/update/final sequencing for requests.

Reproducer for the crash:

    #include &lt;linux/if_alg.h&gt;
    #include &lt;sys/socket.h&gt;
    #include &lt;unistd.h&gt;

    int main()
    {
            int fd;
            struct sockaddr_alg addr = {
                    .salg_type = "hash",
                    .salg_name = "vmac(aes)",
            };
            char buf[256] = { 0 };

            fd = socket(AF_ALG, SOCK_SEQPACKET, 0);
            bind(fd, (void *)&amp;addr, sizeof(addr));
            setsockopt(fd, SOL_ALG, ALG_SET_KEY, buf, 16);
            fork();
            fd = accept(fd, NULL, NULL);
            for (;;)
                    write(fd, buf, 256);
    }

The immediate cause of the crash is that vmac_ctx_t.partial_size exceeds
VMAC_NHBYTES, causing vmac_final() to memset() a negative length.

commit 73bf20ef3df262026c3470241ae4ac8196943ffa upstream.

The VMAC template assumes the block cipher has a 128-bit block size, but
it failed to check for that.  Thus it was possible to instantiate it
using a 64-bit block size cipher, e.g. "vmac(cast5)", causing
uninitialized memory to be used.

Add the needed check when instantiating the template.

The RX SGL in processing is already registered with the RX SGL tracking
list to support proper cleanup. The cleanup code path uses the
sg_num_bytes variable which must therefore be always initialized, even
in the error code path.

<title>Revert changes to convert to -&gt;poll_mask() and aio IOCB_CMD_POLL</title>

The poll() changes were not well thought out, and completely
unexplained.  They also caused a huge performance regression, because
"-&gt;poll()" was no longer a trivial file operation that just called down
to the underlying file operations, but instead did at least two indirect
calls.

Indirect calls are sadly slow now with the Spectre mitigation, but the
performance problem could at least be largely mitigated by changing the
"-&gt;get_poll_head()" operation to just have a per-file-descriptor pointer
to the poll head instead.  That gets rid of one of the new indirections.

But that doesn't fix the new complexity that is completely unwarranted
for the regular case.  The (undocumented) reason for the poll() changes
was some alleged AIO poll race fixing, but we don't make the common case
slower and more complex for some uncommon special case, so this all
really needs way more explanations and most likely a fundamental
redesign.

[ This revert is a revert of about 30 different commits, not reverted
  individually because that would just be unnecessarily messy  - Linus ]
