Now that fscrypt uses only synchronous skciphers, switch to the actual
sync_skcipher API and the corresponding on-stack requests.  This
eliminates a heap allocation per en/decryption operation.

This flag only has an effect for DES, 3DES, and XTS mode.  It does
nothing for AES-ECB, as there is no concept of weak keys for AES.

<title>fscrypt: Don't use asynchronous CryptoAPI algorithms</title>

Now that fscrypt's incomplete support for non-inline crypto engines has
been removed, and none of the CPU-based algorithms have the
CRYPTO_ALG_ASYNC flag set anymore, there is no need to accommodate
asynchronous algorithms.  Therefore, explicitly allocate only
synchronous algorithms.  Then, remove the code that handled waiting for
asynchronous en/decryption operations to complete.

This commit should *not* be backported to kernels that lack commit
0ba6ec5b2972 ("crypto: x86/aes - stop using the SIMD helper"), as then
it would disable the use of the optimized AES code on x86.

<title>fscrypt: Don't use problematic non-inline crypto engines</title>

<id>b41c1d8d07906786c60893980d52688f31d114a6</id>
<content type='text'>
Make fscrypt no longer use Crypto API drivers for non-inline crypto
engines, even when the Crypto API prioritizes them over CPU-based code
(which unfortunately it often does).  These drivers tend to be really
problematic, especially for fscrypt's workload.  This commit has no
effect on inline crypto engines, which are different and do work well.

Specifically, exclude drivers that have CRYPTO_ALG_KERN_DRIVER_ONLY or
CRYPTO_ALG_ALLOCATES_MEMORY set.  (Later, CRYPTO_ALG_ASYNC should be
excluded too.  That's omitted for now to keep this commit backportable,
since until recently some CPU-based code had CRYPTO_ALG_ASYNC set.)

There are two major issues with these drivers: bugs and performance.

First, these drivers tend to be buggy.  They're fundamentally much more
error-prone and harder to test than the CPU-based code.  They often
don't get tested before kernel releases, and even if they do, the crypto
self-tests don't properly test these drivers.  Released drivers have
en/decrypted or hashed data incorrectly.  These bugs cause issues for
fscrypt users who often didn't even want to use these drivers, e.g.:

- https://github.com/google/fscryptctl/issues/32
- https://github.com/google/fscryptctl/issues/9
- https://lore.kernel.org/r/PH0PR02MB731916ECDB6C613665863B6CFFAA2@PH0PR02MB7319.namprd02.prod.outlook.com

These drivers have also similarly caused issues for dm-crypt users,
including data corruption and deadlocks.  Since Linux v5.10, dm-crypt
has disabled most of them by excluding CRYPTO_ALG_ALLOCATES_MEMORY.

Second, these drivers tend to be *much* slower than the CPU-based code.
This may seem counterintuitive, but benchmarks clearly show it.  There's
a *lot* of overhead associated with going to a hardware driver, off the
CPU, and back again.  To prove this, I gathered as many systems with
this type of crypto engine as I could, and I measured synchronous
encryption of 4096-byte messages (which matches fscrypt's workload):

Intel Emerald Rapids server:
   AES-256-XTS:
      xts-aes-vaes-avx512   16171 MB/s  [CPU-based, Vector AES]
      qat_aes_xts             289 MB/s  [Offload, Intel QuickAssist]

Qualcomm SM8650 HDK:
   AES-256-XTS:
      xts-aes-ce             4301 MB/s  [CPU-based, ARMv8 Crypto Extensions]
      xts-aes-qce              73 MB/s  [Offload, Qualcomm Crypto Engine]

i.MX 8M Nano LPDDR4 EVK:
   AES-256-XTS:
      xts-aes-ce              647 MB/s   [CPU-based, ARMv8 Crypto Extensions]
      xts(ecb-aes-caam)        20 MB/s   [Offload, CAAM]
   AES-128-CBC-ESSIV:
      essiv(cbc-aes-caam,sha256-lib) 23 MB/s   [Offload, CAAM]

STM32MP157F-DK2:
   AES-256-XTS:
      xts-aes-neonbs         13.2 MB/s   [CPU-based, ARM NEON]
      xts(stm32-ecb-aes)     3.1 MB/s    [Offload, STM32 crypto engine]
   AES-128-CBC-ESSIV:
      essiv(cbc-aes-neonbs,sha256-lib)
                             14.7 MB/s   [CPU-based, ARM NEON]
      essiv(stm32-cbc-aes,sha256-lib)
                             3.2 MB/s    [Offload, STM32 crypto engine]
   Adiantum:
      adiantum(xchacha12-arm,aes-arm,nhpoly1305-neon)
                             52.8 MB/s   [CPU-based, ARM scalar + NEON]

So, there was no case in which the crypto engine was even *close* to
being faster.  On the first three, which have AES instructions in the
CPU, the CPU was 30 to 55 times faster (!).  Even on STM32MP157F-DK2
which has a Cortex-A7 CPU that doesn't have AES instructions, AES was
over 4 times faster on the CPU.  And Adiantum encryption, which is what
actually should be used on CPUs like that, was over 17 times faster.

Other justifications that have been given for these non-inline crypto
engines (almost always coming from the hardware vendors, not actual
users) don't seem very plausible either:

  - The crypto engine throughput could be improved by processing
    multiple requests concurrently.  Currently irrelevant to fscrypt,
    since it doesn't do that.  This would also be complex, and unhelpful
    in many cases.  2 of the 4 engines I tested even had only one queue.

  - Some of the engines, e.g. STM32, support hardware keys.  Also
    currently irrelevant to fscrypt, since it doesn't support these.
    Interestingly, the STM32 driver itself doesn't support this either.

  - Free up CPU for other tasks and/or reduce energy usage.  Not very
    plausible considering the "short" message length, driver overhead,
    and scheduling overhead.  There's just very little time for the CPU
    to do something else like run another task or enter low-power state,
    before the message finishes and it's time to process the next one.

  - Some of these engines resist power analysis and electromagnetic
    attacks, while the CPU-based crypto generally does not.  In theory,
    this sounds great.  In practice, if this benefit requires the use of
    an off-CPU offload that massively regresses performance and has a
    low-quality, buggy driver, the price for this hardening (which is
    not relevant to most fscrypt users, and tends to be incomplete) is
    just too high.  Inline crypto engines are much more promising here,
    as are on-CPU solutions like RISC-V High Assurance Cryptography.

<content type='text'>
Add support for hardware-wrapped keys to fscrypt.  Such keys are
protected from certain attacks, such as cold boot attacks.  For more
information, see the "Hardware-wrapped keys" section of
Documentation/block/inline-encryption.rst.

To support hardware-wrapped keys in fscrypt, we allow the fscrypt master
keys to be hardware-wrapped.  File contents encryption is done by
passing the wrapped key to the inline encryption hardware via
blk-crypto.  Other fscrypt operations such as filenames encryption
continue to be done by the kernel, using the "software secret" which the
hardware derives.  For more information, see the documentation which
this patch adds to Documentation/filesystems/fscrypt.rst.

Note that this feature doesn't require any filesystem-specific changes.
However it does depend on inline encryption support, and thus currently
it is only applicable to ext4 and f2fs.

The version of this feature introduced by this patch is mostly
equivalent to the version that has existed downstream in the Android
Common Kernels since 2020.  However, a couple fixes are included.
First, the flags field in struct fscrypt_add_key_arg is now placed in
the proper location.  Second, key identifiers for HW-wrapped keys are
now derived using a distinct HKDF context byte; this fixes a bug where a
raw key could have the same identifier as a HW-wrapped key.  Note that
as a result of these fixes, the version of this feature introduced by
this patch is not UAPI or on-disk format compatible with the version in
the Android Common Kernels, though the divergence is limited to just
those specific fixes.  This version should be used going forwards.

This patch has been heavily rewritten from the original version by
Gaurav Kashyap &lt;quic_gaurkash@quicinc.com&gt; and
Barani Muthukumaran &lt;bmuthuku@codeaurora.org&gt;.

Add support for hardware-wrapped keys to fscrypt.  Such keys are
protected from certain attacks, such as cold boot attacks.  For more
information, see the "Hardware-wrapped keys" section of
Documentation/block/inline-encryption.rst.
