Hi,
i can repeatedly trigger the following bug when modprobing tcrypt
to test the crypto algorithms with todays -git

reset_prng_context() grabs a spinlock. That prng_lock spinlock is taken
with irqsave and sometimes without what does not look good on the first
look.
Neil: It is legal for crypto_alloc_cipher() because it might load
another module. Are you fine with the replacement of the spinlock with a
mutex? rngapi_reset() in crypto/rng.c does kmalloc() with GFP_KERNEL so
it looks like it is okay to sleep there.

I'm a bit concerned about making prng_lock a mutex, since that seems like it
would prevent the use of the cprng in interrupt context. I agree that the mixed
use of spin_lock and spin_lock_irqsave with prng_lock is prone to deadlock, but
I think that means we should probably convert all uses of prng_lock to be
irqsave/restore variants to prevent the single cpu deadlock case. As for the
BUG above, I think we can work around that by reorganizing reset_prng_context a
bit, as we really only need the lock around ctx modifications, and the
PRNG_NEED_RESET flag guards against concurrent use while the lock isn't held.
I'd be happy to write a patch if you like, or you can propose one. Just let me
know.
Alternatively, if you can think of a way that mutexes here would still allow for
interrupt context use, I'd certainly be ok with that, I just don't see how to
make that happen at the moment.

Neil

the current code uses a mix of sping_lock() & spin_lock_irqsave(). This can
lead to deadlock with the correct timming & cprng_get_random() + cprng_reset()
sequence.
I've converted them to bottom half locks since all three user grab just a BH
lock so this runs probably in softirq :)

because a spin lock is held and crypto_alloc_base() may sleep.
There is no reason to re-allocate the cipher, the state is resetted in
->setkey(). This move it to init.

There are more than just 3 users of this rng. This is the rng that gets
allocated in the event that someone calls crypto_alloc_rng("stdrng"), and
several ciphers use that, and in turn various ipsec implementations use those
ciphers. That said, I've built it and tested it, and don't currently see any
users of this api from within interrupt context (i.e. no lockdep warnings). I
think we may want to make this api accessible within interrupt context, but that
can probably wait until we have a user in said context, to find the best way to
do that. Herbert, can you apply this to your tree? Thanks!

NAK. Functionally its, ok. But in the conversion, you set ctx->tfm to NULL, and
then return PTR_ERR(ctx->tfm), which is going to return success erroneously
(NULL == 0 == success).. Grab the value of tfm before setting it to null and
return that instead, please

As reported by Eric Sesterhenn the re-allocation of the cipher in reset leads
to:

because a spin lock is held and crypto_alloc_base() may sleep.
There is no reason to re-allocate the cipher, the state is resetted in
->setkey(). This patches makes the cipher allocation a one time thing and
moves it to init.

v2: - remove crypto_free_cipher() from reset
- don'r return 0 in error case in reset
v1: initial shot
Neil, what about that one? Setting tfm to NULL and grabbing the return
code earler would make the patch a little longer.

I think this looks better, yeah, have you tested this? If not, give it a quick
run please, and I'll ack it.

Yeah, ok, that should be good, although I'll make a note and fix the aliasing
issue in the testmgr code
