Like the skcipher_walk and blkcipher_walk cases:

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
ablkcipher_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 ablkcipher_walk_done() to skip the
scatterwalk_advance() and scatterwalk_done() if an error has occurred.

As of GCC 9.0.0 the build is reporting warnings like:

    crypto/ablkcipher.c: In function ‘crypto_ablkcipher_report’:
    crypto/ablkcipher.c:374:2: warning: ‘strncpy’ specified bound 64 equals destination size [-Wstringop-truncation]
      strncpy(rblkcipher.geniv, alg-&gt;cra_ablkcipher.geniv ?: "&lt;default&gt;",
      ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
       sizeof(rblkcipher.geniv));
       ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This means the strnycpy might create a non null terminated string.  Fix this by
explicitly performing '\0' termination.

<title>crypto: Replaced gcc specific attributes with macros from compiler.h</title>

<content type='text'>
Continuing from this commit: 52f5684c8e1e
("kernel: use macros from compiler.h instead of __attribute__((...))")

I submitted 4 total patches. They are part of task I've taken up to
increase compiler portability in the kernel. I've cleaned up the
subsystems under /kernel /mm /block and /security, this patch targets
/crypto.

There is &lt;linux/compiler.h&gt; which provides macros for various gcc specific
constructs. Eg: __weak for __attribute__((weak)). I've cleaned all
instances of gcc specific attributes with the right macros for the crypto
subsystem.

I had to make one additional change into compiler-gcc.h for the case when
one wants to use this: __attribute__((aligned) and not specify an alignment
factor. From the gcc docs, this will result in the largest alignment for
that data type on the target machine so I've named the macro
__aligned_largest. Please advise if another name is more appropriate.

This patch removes the old crypto_grab_skcipher helper and replaces
it with crypto_grab_skcipher2.

As this is the final entry point into givcipher this patch also
removes all traces of the top-level givcipher interface, including
all implicit IV generators such as chainiv.

The bottom-level givcipher interface remains until the drivers
using it are converted.

<title>crypto: skcipher - Copy iv from desc even for 0-len walks</title>

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 -&gt;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 -&gt;iv member.

<title>crypto: api - Only abort operations on fatal signal</title>

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.

When the user explicitly states that they don't care whether the
algorithm has been tested (type = CRYPTO_ALG_TESTED and mask = 0),
there is a corner case where we may erroneously return ENOENT.

This patch fixes it by correcting the logic in the test.
