Optimize ChaCha20 NEON performance by: - Implementing the 8-bit rotations using the 'vtbl.8' instruction. - Streamlining the part that adds the original state and XORs the data. - Making some other small tweaks. On ARM Cortex-A7, these optimizations improve ChaCha20 performance from about 12.08 cycles per byte to about 11.37 -- a 5.9% improvement. There is a tradeoff involved with the 'vtbl.8' rotation method since there is at least one CPU (Cortex-A53) where it's not fastest. But it seems to be a better default; see the added comment. Overall, this patch reduces Cortex-A53 performance by less than 0.5%. Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

T10 CRC library is linked into the kernel thanks to block and SCSI. The crypto accelerators are typically loaded later as modules and are therefore not available when the T10 CRC library is initialized. Use the crypto notifier facility to trigger a switch to a better algorithm if one becomes available after the initial hash has been registered. Use RCU to protect the original transform while the new one is being set up.

Introduce a facility that can be used to receive a notification callback when a new algorithm becomes available. This can be used by existing crypto registrations to trigger a switch from a software-only algorithm to a hardware-accelerated version. A new CRYPTO_MSG_ALG_LOADED state is introduced to the existing crypto notification chain, and the register/unregister functions are exported so they can be called by subsystems outside of crypto.

The arm64 implementation of the CRC-T10DIF algorithm uses the 64x64 bit polynomial multiplication instructions, which are optional in the architecture, and if these instructions are not available, we fall back to the C routine which is slow and inefficient. So let's reuse the 64x64 bit PMULL alternative from the GHASH driver that uses a sequence of ~40 instructions involving 8x8 bit PMULL and some shifting and masking. This is a lot slower than the original, but it is still twice as fast as the current [unoptimized] C code on Cortex-A53, and it is time invariant and much easier on the D-cache.

Now that the scalar fallbacks have been moved out of this driver into the core crc32()/crc32c() routines, we are left with a CRC32 crypto API driver for arm64 that is based only on 64x64 polynomial multiplication, which is an optional instruction in the ARMv8 architecture, and is less and less likely to be available on cores that do not also implement the CRC32 instructions, given that those are mandatory in the architecture as of ARMv8.1. Since the scalar instructions do not require the special handling that SIMD instructions do, and since they turn out to be considerably faster on some cores (Cortex-A53) as well, there is really no point in keeping this code around so let's just remove it.

Replace the literal load of the addend vector with a sequence that performs each add individually. This sequence is only 2 instructions longer than the original, and 2% faster on Cortex-A53. This is an improvement by itself, but also works around a Clang issue, whose integrated assembler does not implement the GNU ARM asm syntax completely, and does not support the =literal notation for FP registers (more info at https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38642) Cc: Nick Desaulniers <ndesaulniers@google.com> Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> Reviewed-by: Nick Desaulniers <ndesaulniers@google.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

Speed up the GHASH algorithm based on 64-bit polynomial multiplication by adding support for 4-way aggregation. This improves throughput by ~85% on Cortex-A53, from 1.7 cycles per byte to 0.9 cycles per byte. When combined with AES into GCM, throughput improves by ~25%, from 3.8 cycles per byte to 3.0 cycles per byte.

As it turns out, the AVX2 multibuffer SHA routines are currently broken [0], in a way that would have likely been noticed if this code were in wide use. Since the code is too complicated to be maintained by anyone except the original authors, and since the performance benefits for real-world use cases are debatable to begin with, it is better to drop it entirely for the moment.

Currently, the CCP driver assumes that the SEV command issued to the PSP will always return (i.e. it will never hang). But recently, firmware bugs have shown that a command can hang. Since of the SEV commands are used in probe routines, this can cause boot hangs and/or loss of virtualization capabilities. To protect against firmware bugs, add a timeout in the SEV command execution flow. If a command does not complete within the specified timeout then return -ETIMEOUT and stop the driver from executing any further commands since the state of the SEV firmware is unknown.

In the quest to remove all stack VLA usage from the kernel[1], this uses the newly defined max alignment to perform unaligned hashing to avoid VLAs, and drops the helper function while adding sanity checks on the resulting buffer sizes. Additionally, the __aligned_largest macro is removed since this helper was the only user.

In the quest to remove all stack VLA usage from the kernel[1], this exposes a new general upper bound on crypto blocksize and alignmask (higher than for the existing cipher limits) for VLA removal, and introduces new checks. At present, the highest cra_alignmask in the kernel is 63. The highest cra_blocksize is 144 (SHA3_224_BLOCK_SIZE, 18 8-byte words). For the new blocksize limit, I went with 160 (20 8-byte words).

In the quest to remove all stack VLA usage from the kernel[1], this removes the VLAs in SHASH_DESC_ON_STACK (via crypto_shash_descsize()) by using the maximum allowable size (which is now more clearly captured in a macro), along with a few other cases. Similar limits are turned into macros as well. A review of existing sizes shows that SHA512_DIGEST_SIZE (64) is the largest digest size and that sizeof(struct sha3_state) (360) is the largest descriptor size. The corresponding maximums are reduced.

The trick with flipping bit 63 to avoid loading the address of the 1:1 mapping of the poisoned page while the 1:1 map is updated used to work when unmapping the page. But it falls down horribly when attempting to directly set the page as uncacheable. The problem is that when the cache mode is changed to uncachable, the pages needs to be flushed from the cache first. But the decoy address is non-canonical due to bit 63 flipped, and the CLFLUSH instruction throws a #GP fault. Add code to change_page_attr_set_clr() to fix the address before calling flush.

When PTI is enabled on x86-32 the kernel uses the GDT mapped in the fixmap for the simple reason that this address is also mapped for user-space. The efi_call_phys_prolog()/efi_call_phys_epilog() wrappers change the GDT to call EFI runtime services and switch back to the kernel GDT when they return. But the switch-back uses the writable GDT, not the fixmap GDT. When that happened and and the CPU returns to user-space it switches to the user %cr3 and tries to restore user segment registers. This fails because the writable GDT is not mapped in the user page-table, and without a GDT the fault handlers also can't be launched. The result is a triple fault and reboot of the machine. Fix that by restoring the GDT back to the fixmap GDT which is also mapped in the user page-table.
