<content type='text'>
Fix all kerneldoc warnings in fs/crypto/ and include/linux/fscrypt.h.
Most of these were due to missing documentation for function parameters.

Detected with:

    scripts/kernel-doc -v -none fs/crypto/*.{c,h} include/linux/fscrypt.h

This cleanup makes it possible to check new patches for kerneldoc
warnings without having to filter out all the existing ones.

For consistency, also adjust some function "brief descriptions" to
include the parentheses and to wrap at 80 characters.  (The latter
matches the checkpatch expectation.)

<title>fscrypt: derive dirhash key for casefolded directories</title>

<content type='text'>
When we allow indexed directories to use both encryption and
casefolding, for the dirhash we can't just hash the ciphertext filenames
that are stored on-disk (as is done currently) because the dirhash must
be case insensitive, but the stored names are case-preserving.  Nor can
we hash the plaintext names with an unkeyed hash (or a hash keyed with a
value stored on-disk like ext4's s_hash_seed), since that would leak
information about the names that encryption is meant to protect.

Instead, if we can accept a dirhash that's only computable when the
fscrypt key is available, we can hash the plaintext names with a keyed
hash using a secret key derived from the directory's fscrypt master key.
We'll use SipHash-2-4 for this purpose.

Prepare for this by deriving a SipHash key for each casefolded encrypted
directory.  Make sure to handle deriving the key not only when setting
up the directory's fscrypt_info, but also in the case where the casefold
flag is enabled after the fscrypt_info was already set up.  (We could
just always derive the key regardless of casefolding, but that would
introduce unnecessary overhead for people not using casefolding.)

<title>fscrypt: don't allow v1 policies with casefolding</title>

<content type='text'>
Casefolded encrypted directories will use a new dirhash method that
requires a secret key.  If the directory uses a v2 encryption policy,
it's easy to derive this key from the master key using HKDF.  However,
v1 encryption policies don't provide a way to derive additional keys.

Therefore, don't allow casefolding on directories that use a v1 policy.
Specifically, make it so that trying to enable casefolding on a
directory that has a v1 policy fails, trying to set a v1 policy on a
casefolded directory fails, and trying to open a casefolded directory
that has a v1 policy (if one somehow exists on-disk) fails.

fname_encrypt() is a global function, due to being used in both fname.c
and hooks.c.  So it should be prefixed with "fscrypt_", like all the
other global functions in fs/crypto/.

Most of the warning and error messages in fs/crypto/ are for situations
related to a specific inode, not merely to a super_block.  So to make
things easier, make fscrypt_msg() take an inode rather than a
super_block, and make it print the inode number.

Note: This is the same approach I'm taking for fsverity_msg().

<title>fscrypt: cache decrypted symlink target in -&gt;i_link</title>

<content type='text'>
Path lookups that traverse encrypted symlink(s) are very slow because
each encrypted symlink needs to be decrypted each time it's followed.
This also involves dropping out of rcu-walk mode.

Make encrypted symlinks faster by caching the decrypted symlink target
in -&gt;i_link.  The first call to fscrypt_get_symlink() sets it.  Then,
the existing VFS path lookup code uses the non-NULL -&gt;i_link to take the
fast path where -&gt;get_link() isn't called, and lookups in rcu-walk mode
remain in rcu-walk mode.

Also set -&gt;i_link immediately when a new encrypted symlink is created.

To safely free the symlink target after an RCU grace period has elapsed,
introduce a new function fscrypt_free_inode(), and make the relevant
filesystems call it just before actually freeing the inode.

<title>fscrypt: fix race where -&gt;lookup() marks plaintext dentry as ciphertext</title>

<id>b01531db6cec2aa330dbc91bfbfaaef4a0d387a4</id>
<content type='text'>
-&gt;lookup() in an encrypted directory begins as follows:

1. fscrypt_prepare_lookup():
    a. Try to load the directory's encryption key.
    b. If the key is unavailable, mark the dentry as a ciphertext name
       via d_flags.
2. fscrypt_setup_filename():
    a. Try to load the directory's encryption key.
    b. If the key is available, encrypt the name (treated as a plaintext
       name) to get the on-disk name.  Otherwise decode the name
       (treated as a ciphertext name) to get the on-disk name.

But if the key is concurrently added, it may be found at (2a) but not at
(1a).  In this case, the dentry will be wrongly marked as a ciphertext
name even though it was actually treated as plaintext.

This will cause the dentry to be wrongly invalidated on the next lookup,
potentially causing problems.  For example, if the racy -&gt;lookup() was
part of sys_mount(), then the new mount will be detached when anything
tries to access it.  This is despite the mountpoint having a plaintext
path, which should remain valid now that the key was added.

Of course, this is only possible if there's a userspace race.  Still,
the additional kernel-side race is confusing and unexpected.

Close the kernel-side race by changing fscrypt_prepare_lookup() to also
set the on-disk filename (step 2b), consistent with the d_flags update.

Plaintext dentries are always valid, so only set fscrypt_d_ops on
ciphertext dentries.

Besides marginally improved performance, this allows overlayfs to use an
fscrypt-encrypted upperdir, provided that all the following are true:

    (1) The fscrypt encryption key is placed in the keyring before
	mounting overlayfs, and remains while the overlayfs is mounted.

    (2) The overlayfs workdir uses the same encryption policy.

    (3) No dentries for the ciphertext names of subdirectories have been
	created in the upperdir or workdir yet.  (Since otherwise
	d_splice_alias() will reuse the old dentry with -&gt;d_op set.)

One potential use case is using an ephemeral encryption key to encrypt
all files created or changed by a container, so that they can be
securely erased ("crypto-shredded") after the container stops.
