<title>crypto: shash - convert shash_free_instance() to new style</title>

<content type='text'>
Convert shash_free_instance() and its users to the new way of freeing
instances, where a -&gt;free() method is installed to the instance struct
itself.  This replaces the weakly-typed method crypto_template::free().

This will allow removing support for the old way of freeing instances.

Also give shash_free_instance() a more descriptive name to reflect that
it's only for instances with a single spawn, not for any instance.

Now that all users of single-block cipher spawns have been converted to
use 'struct crypto_cipher_spawn' rather than the less specifically typed
'struct crypto_spawn', make crypto_spawn_cipher() take a pointer to a

<title>crypto: cbcmac - use crypto_grab_cipher() and simplify error paths</title>

Make the cbcmac template use the new function crypto_grab_cipher() to
initialize its cipher spawn.

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

This required making cbcmac_create() allocate the instance directly
rather than use shash_alloc_instance().

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

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

<content type='text'>
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.

<title>wusb: switch to cbcmac transform</title>

<content type='text'>
The wusb code takes a very peculiar approach at implementing CBC-MAC,
by using plain CBC into a scratch buffer, and taking the output IV
as the MAC.

We can clean up this code substantially by switching to the cbcmac
shash, as exposed by the CCM template. To ensure that the module is
loaded on demand, add the cbcmac template name as a module alias.

<title>crypto: ccm - fix incompatibility between "ccm" and "ccm_base"</title>

<content type='text'>
CCM instances can be created by either the "ccm" template, which only
allows choosing the block cipher, e.g. "ccm(aes)"; or by "ccm_base",
which allows choosing the ctr and cbcmac implementations, e.g.
"ccm_base(ctr(aes-generic),cbcmac(aes-generic))".

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

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

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