Subject: [PATCH 5.5 154/367] crypto: pcrypt - Avoid deadlock by using per-instance padata queues

From: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

commit bbefa1dd6a6d53537c11624752219e39959d04fb upstream.

If the pcrypt template is used multiple times in an algorithm, then a
deadlock occurs because all pcrypt instances share the same
padata_instance, which completes requests in the order submitted.  That
is, the inner pcrypt request waits for the outer pcrypt request while
the outer request is already waiting for the inner.

This patch fixes this by allocating a set of queues for each pcrypt
instance instead of using two global queues.  In order to maintain
the existing user-space interface, the pinst structure remains global
so any sysfs modifications will apply to every pcrypt instance.

Note that when an update occurs we have to allocate memory for
every pcrypt instance.  Should one of the allocations fail we
will abort the update without rolling back changes already made.

The new per-instance data structure is called padata_shell and is
essentially a wrapper around parallel_data.

Reproducer:

	#include <linux/if_alg.h>
	#include <sys/socket.h>
	#include <unistd.h>

	int main()
	{
		struct sockaddr_alg addr = {
			.salg_type = "aead",
			.salg_name = "pcrypt(pcrypt(rfc4106-gcm-aesni))"
		};
		int algfd, reqfd;
		char buf[32] = { 0 };

		algfd = socket(AF_ALG, SOCK_SEQPACKET, 0);
		bind(algfd, (void *)&addr, sizeof(addr));
		setsockopt(algfd, SOL_ALG, ALG_SET_KEY, buf, 20);
		reqfd = accept(algfd, 0, 0);
		write(reqfd, buf, 32);
		read(reqfd, buf, 16);
	}
