Hi Herbert,
for this patch, I have updated the testing for libkcapi accordingly and all
tests pass. I will push the libkcapi code 0.12 with that test code change
out shortly. Using the current upstream version of 0.11.1 will show failures
as it expects the correct recv return code. As stated below, that return
code has changed which implies that some of the tests will fail.
---8<---
For encryption, the AEAD ciphers require AAD || PT as input and generate
AAD || CT || Tag as output and vice versa for decryption. Prior to this
patch, the AF_ALG interface for AEAD ciphers requires the buffer to be
present as input for encryption. Similarly, the output buffer for
decryption required the presence of the tag buffer too. This implies
that the kernel reads / writes data buffers from/to user space
even though this operation is not required.
This patch changes the AF_ALG AEAD interface to be consistent with the
in-kernel AEAD cipher memory requirements.
In addition, the code now handles the situation where the provided
output buffer is too small by reducing the size of the processed
input buffer accordingly. Due to this handling, the changes are
transparent to user space with one exception: the return code of recv
indicates the processed of output buffer size. That output buffer has a
different size compared to before the patch which implies that the
return code of recv will also be different. For example, a decryption
operation uses 16 bytes AAD, 16 bytes CT and 16 bytes tag, the AF_ALG
AEAD interface before showed a recv return code of 48 (bytes) whereas
after this patch, the return code is 32 since the tag is not returned
any more.
