commit 767f015ea0b7ab9d60432ff6cd06b664fd71f50f upstream.

If the user-provided IV needs to be aligned to the algorithm's
alignmask, then skcipher_walk_virt() copies the IV into a new aligned
buffer walk.iv.  But skcipher_walk_virt() can fail afterwards, and then
if the caller unconditionally accesses walk.iv, it's a use-after-free.

arm32 xts-aes-neonbs doesn't set an alignmask, so currently it isn't
affected by this despite unconditionally accessing walk.iv.  However
this is more subtle than desired, and it was actually broken prior to
the alignmask being removed by commit cc477bf64573 ("crypto: arm/aes -
replace bit-sliced OpenSSL NEON code").  Thus, update xts-aes-neonbs to
start checking the return value of skcipher_walk_virt().

[ Upstream commit c64316502008064c158fa40cc250665e461b0f2a ]

The SHA512 code we adopted from the OpenSSL project uses a rather
peculiar way to take the address of the round constant table: it
takes the address of the sha256_block_data_order() routine, and
substracts a constant known quantity to arrive at the base of the
table, which is emitted by the same assembler code right before
the routine's entry point.

However, recent versions of binutils have helpfully changed the
behavior of references emitted via an ADR instruction when running
in Thumb2 mode: it now takes the Thumb execution mode bit into
account, which is bit 0 af the address. This means the produced
table address also has bit 0 set, and so we end up with an address
value pointing 1 byte past the start of the table, which results
in crashes such as

  Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address bf825000

[ Not upstream because this is a minimal fix for a bug where arm32
  kernels can use a much slower implementation of AES than is actually
  available, potentially forcing vendors to disable encryption on their
  devices.]

All the aes-bs (bit-sliced) and aes-ce (cryptographic extensions)
algorithms had a priority of 300.  This is undesirable because it means
an aes-bs algorithm may be used when an aes-ce algorithm is available.
The aes-ce algorithms have much better performance (up to 10x faster).

Fix it by decreasing the priority of the aes-bs algorithms to 250.

This was fixed upstream by commit cc477bf64573 ("crypto: arm/aes -
replace bit-sliced OpenSSL NEON code"), but it was just a small part of
a complete rewrite.  This patch just fixes the priority bug for older
kernels.

commit 58010fa6f71c9577922b22e46014b95a4ec80fa0 upstream.

The AES key schedule generation is mostly endian agnostic, with the
exception of the rotation and the incorporation of the round constant
at the start of each round. So implement a big endian specific version
of that part to make the whole routine big endian compatible.

all ahash drivers are required to implement import()/export(), and must have

commit ed4767d612fd2c39e2c4c69eba484c1219dcddb6 upstream.

Since commit 8996eafdcbad ("crypto: ahash - ensure statesize is non-zero"),
all ahash drivers are required to implement import()/export(), and must have
a non-zero statesize. Fix this for the ARM Crypto Extensions GHASH
implementation.

<title>crypto: arm/aes-ctr - fix NULL dereference in tail processing</title>

commit f82e90b28654804ab72881d577d87c3d5c65e2bc upstream.

The AES-CTR glue code avoids calling into the blkcipher API for the
tail portion of the walk, by comparing the remainder of walk.nbytes
modulo AES_BLOCK_SIZE with the residual nbytes, and jumping straight
into the tail processing block if they are equal. This tail processing
block checks whether nbytes != 0, and does nothing otherwise.

However, in case of an allocation failure in the blkcipher layer, we
may enter this code with walk.nbytes == 0, while nbytes &gt; 0. In this
case, we should not dereference the source and destination pointers,
since they may be NULL. So instead of checking for nbytes != 0, check
for (walk.nbytes % AES_BLOCK_SIZE) != 0, which implies the former in
non-error conditions.

<title>crypto: arm/aes - streamline AES-192 code path</title>

This trims off a couple of instructions of the total size of the
core AES transform by reordering the final branch in the AES-192
code path with the rounds that are performed regardless of whether
the branch is taken or not. Other than the slight size reduction,
this has no performance benefit.

Fix up a comment regarding the prototype of this function while
we're at it.

This replaces the SHA-512 NEON module with the faster and more
versatile implementation from the OpenSSL project. It consists
of both a NEON and a generic ASM version of the core SHA-512
transform, where the NEON version reverts to the ASM version
when invoked in non-process context.

This patch is based on the OpenSSL upstream version b1a5d1c65208
of sha512-armv4.pl, which can be found here:

  https://git.openssl.org/gitweb/?p=openssl.git;h=b1a5d1c65208

Performance relative to the generic implementation (measured
using tcrypt.ko mode=306 sec=1 running on a Cortex-A57 under
KVM):
