s390/zcrypt: new sysfs attributes serialnr and mkvps
This patch extends the sysfs interface with two new attributes for the CEX4, CEX5 and CEX6 crypto cards/queues in coprocessor ('CCA') mode: /sys/devices/ap/cardxx/serialnr /sys/devices/ap/cardxx/xx.yyyy/mkvps The serialnr attribute is card based and shows the 8 character ASCII serial number string which should unique identify the card. The mkvps is queue based and displays 3 lines of information about the new, current and old master key register: AES NEW: <new_aes_mk_state> <new_aes_mk_mkvp> AES CUR: <cur_aes_mk_state> <cur_aes_mk_mkvp> AES OLD: <old_aes_mk_state> <old_aes_mk_mkvp> with <new_aes_mk_state>: 'empty' or 'partial' or 'full' <cur_aes_mk_state>: 'valid' or 'invalid' <old_aes_mk_state>: 'valid' or 'invalid' <new_aes_mk_mkvp>, <cur_aes_mk_mkvp>, <old_aes_mk_mkvp> 8 byte hex string with leading 0x MKVP means Master Key Verification Pattern and is a folded hash over the key value. Only the states 'full' and 'valid' result in displaying a useful mkvp, otherwise a mkvp of all bytes zero is shown. If for any reason the FQ fails and the (cached) information is not available, the state '-' will be shown with the mkvp value also '-'. The values shown here are the very same as the cca panel tools displays. As of now only the AES master keys states and verification patterns are shown. A CCA APQN also has similar master key registers for DES, RSA and ECC. So the content of this attribute may get extended. Reading the sysfs attribute automatically triggers an FQ CPRB to be sent to the queue as long as the queue is (soft-) online. For the serialnr attribute the queue with the default domain id is addressed (if available and valid). This is reasonable as it is assumed that this sysfs interface is not performance critical and on the other side a master key change should be visiable as soon as possible. When a queue is (soft-) offline however, the cached values are displayed. If no cached values are available, the serial number string will be empty and the mkvp lines will show state '-' and mkvp value '-'.
