Key Locker [1][2] is a new security feature available in new Intel CPUs to
protect data encryption keys for the Advanced Encryption Standard
algorithm. The protection limits the amount of time an AES key is exposed
in memory by sealing a key and referencing it with new AES instructions.
The new AES instruction set is a successor of Intel's AES-NI (AES New
Instruction). Users may switch to the Key Locker version from crypto
libraries. This series includes a new AES implementation for the Crypto
API, which was validated through the crypto unit tests. The performance in
the test cases was measured and found comparable to the AES-NI version.
Key Locker introduces a (CPU-)internal key to encode AES keys. The kernel
needs to load it and ensure it unchanged as long as CPUs are operational.
The series has three parts:
* PATCH1-7: Implement the internal key management
* PATCH8-10: Add a new AES implementation in the Crypto library
* PATCH11: Provide the hardware randomization option
Dan has asked for this to go out as another RFC to have more conversation
before asking the maintainers to consider this implementation.
Changes from RFC v1 [3]:
* Refactored the AES-NI implementation and fix the AES-KL in the Crypto
API. (Ard Biesheuvel)
* Revised the AES implementation description. (Dave Hansen and Peter
Zijlsta).
* Noted the binutils version and made it prerequisite. (Peter Zijlstra and
Borislav Petkov)
* Reorganized helper functions. With that, simplified the feature
enablement check.
* Added to flush cache lines when removing key from memory.
* Separated the opcode map update into a new patch. Also, included AES
instructions.
* Refactored the LOADIWKEY instruction in a new helper.
* Folded the backup error warning. (Rafael Wysocki)
* Massaged changelog accordingly.
