It's poorly documented, but the uses I see are: (1) Block size for "ciphers", i.e. what the rest of the world calls "block ciphers". (2) Minimum input size for "skciphers" -- usually either 1 or the block size of the underlying block cipher, in the case that the skcipher is something like "cbc(aes)", where a block cipher is wrapped in a mode of operation. (3) Block size for hash functions that use an internal compression function, e.g. SHA-1 has a block size of 64 bytes. I'm not sure it makes sense to have a single limit for all these uses. All the block ciphers supported by Linux have a block size of 16 bytes or less, while hash functions usually have larger "block sizes". > include/crypto/algapi.h:#define MAX_CIPHER_ALIGNMASK 15 > ... > drivers/crypto/mxs-dcp.c: .cra_flags > = CRYPTO_ALG_ASYNC, > drivers/crypto/mxs-dcp.c: .cra_alignmask = 63, > > Is this one broken?

Actually, xcbc is a 'shash' template (CRYPTO_ALG_TYPE_SHASH) that wraps a block cipher (CRYPTO_ALG_TYPE_CIPHER) and sets its own cra_blocksize to the block cipher's block size. So the same block size can be gotten from either 'crypto_shash_blocksize(parent)' or 'crypto_cipher_blocksize(ctx->child)'. It can only be 16 bytes, currently, since xcbc_create() only allows instantiating the template if that's the block size. But in the case of qat_alg_do_precomputes(), yes it appears to need the hash block size. > > For my CRYPTO_ALG_MAX_ALIGNMASK, there is: > > crypto/shash.c: u8 ubuf[CRYPTO_ALG_MAX_ALIGNMASK] > crypto/shash.c: __aligned(CRYPTO_ALG_MAX_ALIGNMASK + 1); > crypto/shash.c: __aligned(CRYPTO_ALG_MAX_ALIGNMASK + 1); > > which is also shash. > > How should I rename these and best apply the registration-time sanity checks? I'm not sure, but it may make sense to enforce a smaller limit for algorithm types like CRYPTO_ALG_TYPE_CIPHER and maybe even CRYPTO_ALG_TYPE_SHASH that can't be implemented in a hardware driver, as their APIs are not asynchronous and don't operate on scatterlists. Only hardware drivers can need very large alignmasks like 64 bytes, I believe. Eric -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
