Subject: [PATCH 1/2] fscrypto: don't use on-stack buffer for filename encryption

With the new (in 4.9) option to use a virtually-mapped stack
(CONFIG_VMAP_STACK), stack buffers cannot be used as input/output for
the scatterlist crypto API because they may not be directly mappable to
struct page. For short filenames, fname_encrypt() was encrypting a
stack buffer holding the padded filename. Fix it by encrypting the
filename in-place in the output buffer, thereby making the temporary
buffer unnecessary.

This bug could most easily be observed in a CONFIG_DEBUG_SG kernel
because this allowed the BUG in sg_set_buf() to be triggered.

With the new (in 4.9) option to use a virtually-mapped stack
(CONFIG_VMAP_STACK), stack buffers cannot be used as input/output for
the scatterlist crypto API because they may not be directly mappable to
struct page. get_crypt_info() was using a stack buffer to hold the
output from the encryption operation used to derive the per-file key.
Fix it by using a heap buffer.

This bug could most easily be observed in a CONFIG_DEBUG_SG kernel
because this allowed the BUG in sg_set_buf() to be triggered.

Vmalloc memory does have struct pages - you just need to use vmalloc_to_page()
instead of virt_to_page. Look at drivers/md/bcache/util.c bch_bio_map() if you
want an example.

It would be better to just fix the sg code to handle vmalloc memory, instead of
adding a kmalloc() that can fail (and an error path that inevitably won't be
tested).

Probably not, because (a) vmalloc_to_page is slow and (b) stack
buffers can span physically noncontiguous pages.

I think it's best to either avoid stack buffers or to teach crypto about kiov.

As Kent and Andy pointed out, they are but here are dragons.
The pages can be non-linear and on platforms with different cache architectures
extra flush operations may be needed.

You can initialize it with iv = {0} at the beginning such that you don't
need the memset here.

That example seems to be clearly broken on virtually index caches
due to the lack of flush_kernel_vmap_range and
invalidate_kernel_vmap_range calls.

Hi Ted,

Would it make any sense to send these two patches to Linus for v4.9-rc6, given
that they fix bugs introduced in 4.9 with the virtually-mapped stack feature?
Or would you prefer to wait and have them go to 4.9 via stable?
Note that CONFIG_VMAP_STACK defaults to y on x86_64.

Thanks,

Eric
