Remove the "ghash-neon" crypto_shash algorithm. Move the corresponding
assembly code into lib/crypto/, and wire it up to the GHASH library.
This makes the GHASH library be optimized on arm (though only with NEON,
not PMULL; for now the goal is just parity with crypto_shash). It
greatly reduces the amount of arm-specific glue code that is needed, and
it fixes the issue where this optimization was disabled by default.
To integrate the assembly code correctly with the library, make the
following tweaks:
- Change the type of 'blocks' from int to size_t.
- Change the types of 'dg' and 'h' to polyval_elem. Note that this
simply reflects the format that the code was already using, at least
on little endian CPUs. For big endian CPUs, add byte-swaps.
- Remove the 'head' argument, which is no longer needed.

Move the ARM optimized single-block AES en/decryption code into
lib/crypto/, wire it up to the AES library API, and remove the
superseded "aes-arm" crypto_cipher algorithm.
The result is that both the AES library and crypto_cipher APIs are now
optimized for ARM, whereas previously only crypto_cipher was (and the
optimizations weren't enabled by default, which this fixes as well).

aes-neonbs-glue.c calls __aes_arm_encrypt() and __aes_arm_decrypt() to
en/decrypt single blocks for CBC encryption, XTS tweak encryption, and
XTS ciphertext stealing. In preparation for making the AES library use
this same ARM-optimized single-block AES en/decryption code and making
it an internal implementation detail of the AES library, replace the
calls to these functions with calls to the AES library.
Note that this reduces the size of the aesbs_cbc_ctx and aesbs_xts_ctx
structs, since unnecessary decryption round keys are no longer included.

Migrate the arm32 NEON implementation of NH into lib/crypto/. This
makes the nh() function be optimized on arm32 kernels.
Note: this temporarily makes the adiantum template not utilize the arm32
optimized NH code. This is resolved in a later commit that converts the
adiantum template to use nh() instead of "nhpoly1305".

Migrate the arm-optimized BLAKE2b code from arch/arm/crypto/ to
lib/crypto/arm/. This makes the BLAKE2b library able to use it, and it
also simplifies the code because it's easier to integrate with the
library than crypto_shash.
This temporarily makes the arm-optimized BLAKE2b code unavailable via
crypto_shash. A later commit reimplements the blake2b-* crypto_shash
algorithms on top of the BLAKE2b library API, making it available again.
Note that as per the lib/crypto/ convention, the optimized code is now
enabled by default. So, this also fixes the longstanding issue where
the optimized BLAKE2b code was not enabled by default.

Reorganize the Curve25519 library code:
- Build a single libcurve25519 module, instead of up to three modules:
libcurve25519, libcurve25519-generic, and an arch-specific module.
- Move the arch-specific Curve25519 code from arch/$(SRCARCH)/crypto/ to
lib/crypto/$(SRCARCH)/. Centralize the build rules into
lib/crypto/Makefile and lib/crypto/Kconfig.
- Include the arch-specific code directly in lib/crypto/curve25519.c via
a header, rather than using a separate .c file.
- Eliminate the entanglement with CRYPTO. CRYPTO_LIB_CURVE25519 no
longer selects CRYPTO, and the arch-specific Curve25519 code no longer
depends on CRYPTO.
This brings Curve25519 in line with the latest conventions for
lib/crypto/, used by other algorithms. The exception is that I kept the
generic code in separate translation units for now. (Some of the
function names collide between the x86 and generic Curve25519 code. And
the Curve25519 functions are very long anyway, so inlining doesn't
matter as much for Curve25519 as it does for some other algorithms.)

Curve25519 is used only via the library API, not the crypto_kpp API. In
preparation for removing the unused crypto_kpp API for Curve25519,
remove the unused "curve25519-neon" kpp algorithm.
Note that the underlying NEON optimized Curve25519 code remains fully
supported and accessible via the library API.
It's also worth noting that even if the kpp support for Curve25519 comes
back later, there is no need for arch-specific kpp glue code like this,
as a single kpp algorithm that wraps the library API is sufficient.

Instead of exposing the arm-optimized SHA-1 code via arm-specific
crypto_shash algorithms, instead just implement the sha1_blocks()
library function. This is much simpler, it makes the SHA-1 library
functions be arm-optimized, and it fixes the longstanding issue where
the arm-optimized SHA-1 code was disabled by default. SHA-1 still
remains available through crypto_shash, but individual architectures no
longer need to handle it.
To match sha1_blocks(), change the type of the nblocks parameter of the
assembly functions from int to size_t. The assembly functions actually
already treated it as size_t.

To merge the scalar, NEON, and CE code all into one module cleanly, add
!CPU_V7M as a direct dependency of the CE code. Previously, !CPU_V7M
was only a direct dependency of the scalar and NEON code. The result is
still the same because CPU_V7M implies !KERNEL_MODE_NEON, so !CPU_V7M
was already an indirect dependency of the CE code.
To match sha256_blocks_arch(), change the type of the nblocks parameter

While renaming the assembly files, also fix the naming quirk where
"sha2" meant sha256. (SHA-512 is also part of SHA-2.)

The ARCH_MAY_HAVE patch missed arm64, mips and s390. But it may
also lead to arch options being enabled but ineffective because
of modular/built-in conflicts.
As the primary user of all these options wireguard is selecting
the arch options anyway, make the same selections at the lib/crypto
option level and hide the arch options from the user.
Instead of selecting them centrally from lib/crypto, simply set
the default of each arch option as suggested by Eric Biggers.
Change the Crypto API generic algorithms to select the top-level
lib/crypto options instead of the generic one as otherwise there
is no way to enable the arch options (Eric Biggers). Introduce a
set of INTERNAL options to work around dependency cycles on the
CONFIG_CRYPTO symbol.

In aes-neonbs, instead of going through the crypto API for the parts
that the bit-sliced AES code doesn't handle, namely AES-CBC encryption
and single-block AES, just call the ARM scalar AES cipher directly.
This basically goes back to the original approach that was used before
commit b56f5cbc7e08 ("crypto: arm/aes-neonbs - resolve fallback cipher
at runtime"). Calling the ARM scalar AES cipher directly is faster,
simpler, and avoids any chance of bugs specific to the use of fallback
ciphers such as module loading deadlocks which have happened twice. The
deadlocks turned out to be fixable in other ways, but there's no need to
rely on anything so fragile in the first place.
The rationale for the above-mentioned commit was to allow people to
choose to use a time-invariant AES implementation for the fallback
cipher. There are a couple problems with that rationale, though:
- In practice the ARM scalar AES cipher (aes-arm) was used anyway, since
it has a higher priority than aes-fixed-time. Users *could* go out of
their way to disable or blacklist aes-arm, or to lower its priority
using NETLINK_CRYPTO, but very few users customize the crypto API to
this extent. Systems with the ARMv8 Crypto Extensions used aes-ce,
but the bit-sliced algorithms are irrelevant on such systems anyway.
- Since commit 913a3aa07d16 ("crypto: arm/aes - add some hardening
against cache-timing attacks"), the ARM scalar AES cipher is partially
hardened against cache-timing attacks. It actually works like
aes-fixed-time, in that it disables interrupts and prefetches its
lookup table. It does use a larger table than aes-fixed-time, but
even so, it is not clear that aes-fixed-time is meaningfully more
time-invariant than aes-arm. And of course, the real solution for
time-invariant AES is to use a CPU that supports AES instructions.

On 32-bit ARM, AES in GCM mode takes full advantage of the ARMv8 Crypto
Extensions when available, resulting in a performance of 6-7 cycles per
byte for typical IPsec frames on cores such as Cortex-A53, using the
generic GCM template encapsulating the accelerated AES-CTR and GHASH
implementations.
At such high rates, any time spent copying data or doing other poorly
optimized work in the generic layer hurts disproportionately, and we can
get a significant performance improvement by combining the optimized
AES-CTR and GHASH implementations into a single GCM driver.
On Cortex-A53, this results in a performance improvement of around 75%,
and AES-256-GCM-128 with RFC4106 encapsulation runs in 4 cycles per
byte.
Note that this code takes advantage of the fact that kernel mode NEON is
now supported in softirq context as well, and therefore does not provide
a non-NEON fallback path at all. (AEADs are only callable in process or
softirq context)

The gf128mul library does not depend on the crypto API at all, so it can
be moved into lib/crypto. This will allow us to use it in other library
code in a subsequent patch without having to depend on CONFIG_CRYPTO.
While at it, change the Kconfig symbol name to align with other crypto
library implementations. However, the source file name is retained, as
it is reflected in the module .ko filename, and changing this might
break things for users.

BLAKE2s has no currently known use as an shash. Just remove all of this
unnecessary plumbing. Removing this shash was something we talked about
back when we were making BLAKE2s a built-in, but I simply never got
around to doing it. So this completes that project.
Importantly, this fixs a bug in which the lib code depends on
crypto_simd_disabled_for_test, causing linker errors.
Also add more alignment tests to the selftests and compare SIMD and
non-SIMD compression functions, to make up for what we lose from

Add a NEON-accelerated implementation of BLAKE2b.
On Cortex-A7 (which these days is the most common ARM processor that
doesn't have the ARMv8 Crypto Extensions), this is over twice as fast as
SHA-256, and slightly faster than SHA-1. It is also almost three times
as fast as the generic implementation of BLAKE2b:
Algorithm Cycles per byte (on 4096-byte messages)
=================== =======================================
blake2b-256-neon 14.0
sha1-neon 16.3
blake2s-256-arm 18.8
sha1-asm 20.8
blake2s-256-generic 26.0
sha256-neon 28.9
sha256-asm 32.0
blake2b-256-generic 38.9
This implementation isn't directly based on any other implementation,
but it borrows some ideas from previous NEON code I've written as well
as from chacha-neon-core.S. At least on Cortex-A7, it is faster than
the other NEON implementations of BLAKE2b I'm aware of (the
implementation in the BLAKE2 official repository using intrinsics, and
Andrew Moon's implementation which can be found in SUPERCOP). It does
only one block at a time, so it performs well on short messages too.
NEON-accelerated BLAKE2b is useful because there is interest in using
BLAKE2b-256 for dm-verity on low-end Android devices (specifically,
devices that lack the ARMv8 Crypto Extensions) to replace SHA-1. On
these devices, the performance cost of upgrading to SHA-256 may be
unacceptable, whereas BLAKE2b-256 would actually improve performance.
Although BLAKE2b is intended for 64-bit platforms (unlike BLAKE2s which
is intended for 32-bit platforms), on 32-bit ARM processors with NEON,
BLAKE2b is actually faster than BLAKE2s. This is because NEON supports
64-bit operations, and because BLAKE2s's block size is too small for
NEON to be helpful for it. The best I've been able to do with BLAKE2s
on Cortex-A7 is 18.8 cpb with an optimized scalar implementation.
(I didn't try BLAKE2sp and BLAKE3, which in theory would be faster, but
they're more complex as they require running multiple hashes at once.
Note that BLAKE2b already uses all the NEON bandwidth on the Cortex-A7,
so I expect that any speedup from BLAKE2sp or BLAKE3 would come only
from the smaller number of rounds, not from the extra parallelism.)
For now this BLAKE2b implementation is only wired up to the shash API,
since there is no library API for BLAKE2b yet. However, I've tried to
keep things consistent with BLAKE2s, e.g. by defining
blake2b_compress_arch() which is analogous to blake2s_compress_arch()
and could be exported for use by the library API later if needed.

Add an ARM scalar optimized implementation of BLAKE2s.
NEON isn't very useful for BLAKE2s because the BLAKE2s block size is too
small for NEON to help. Each NEON instruction would depend on the
previous one, resulting in poor performance.
With scalar instructions, on the other hand, we can take advantage of
ARM's "free" rotations (like I did in chacha-scalar-core.S) to get an
implementation get runs much faster than the C implementation.
Performance results on Cortex-A7 in cycles per byte using the shash API:
4096-byte messages:
blake2s-256-arm: 18.8
blake2s-256-generic: 26.0
500-byte messages:
blake2s-256-arm: 20.3
blake2s-256-generic: 27.9
100-byte messages:
blake2s-256-arm: 29.7
blake2s-256-generic: 39.2
32-byte messages:
blake2s-256-arm: 50.6
blake2s-256-generic: 66.2
Except on very short messages, this is still slower than the NEON
implementation of BLAKE2b which I've written; that is 14.0, 16.4, 25.8,
and 76.1 cpb on 4096, 500, 100, and 32-byte messages, respectively.
However, optimized BLAKE2s is useful for cases where BLAKE2s is used
instead of BLAKE2b, such as WireGuard.
This new implementation is added in the form of a new module
blake2s-arm.ko, which is analogous to blake2s-x86_64.ko in that it
provides blake2s_compress_arch() for use by the library API as well as
optionally register the algorithms with the shash API.

issues which can lead to silent miscompilation:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=58145
Raise the minimum GCC version for kernel build to 4.8 and remove some
tautological Kconfig dependencies as a consequence.

This ports the SUPERCOP implementation for usage in kernel space. In
addition to the usual header, macro, and style changes required for
kernel space, it makes a few small changes to the code:
- The stack alignment is relaxed to 16 bytes.
- Superfluous mov statements have been removed.
- ldr for constants has been replaced with movw.
- ldreq has been replaced with moveq.
- The str epilogue has been made more idiomatic.
- SIMD registers are not pushed and popped at the beginning and end.
- The prologue and epilogue have been made idiomatic.
- A hole has been removed from the stack, saving 32 bytes.
- We write-back the base register whenever possible for vld1.8.
- Some multiplications have been reordered for better A7 performance.
There are more opportunities for cleanup, since this code is from qhasm,
which doesn't always do the most opportune thing. But even prior to
extensive hand optimizations, this code delivers significant performance
improvements (given in get_cycles() per call):

Expose the accelerated NEON ChaCha routine directly as a symbol
export so that users of the ChaCha library API can use it directly.
Given that calls into the library API will always go through the
routines in this module if it is enabled, switch to static keys
to select the optimal implementation available (which may be none
at all, in which case we defer to the generic implementation for
all invocations).

Instead of falling back to the generic ChaCha skcipher driver for
non-SIMD cases, use a fast scalar implementation for ARM authored
by Eric Biggers. This removes the module dependency on chacha-generic
altogether, which also simplifies things when we expose the ChaCha
library interface from this module.

Instead of allowing the Crypto Extensions algorithms to be selected when
using a toolchain that does not support them, and complain about it at
build time, use the information we have about the compiler to prevent
them from being selected in the first place. Users that are stuck with
a GCC version <4.8 are unlikely to care about these routines anyway, and
it cleans up the Makefile considerably.
While at it, add explicit 'armv8-a' CPU specifiers to the code that uses
the 'crypto-neon-fp-armv8' FPU specifier so we don't regress Clang, which
will complain about this in version 10 and later.

NH portion is actually NEON-accelerated; the Poly1305 part is less

Now that the 32-bit ARM NEON implementation of ChaCha20 and XChaCha20
has been refactored to support varying the number of rounds, add support
for XChaCha12. This is identical to XChaCha20 except for the number of
rounds, which is 12 instead of 20.
XChaCha12 is faster than XChaCha20 but has a lower security margin,
though still greater than AES-256's since the best known attacks make it
through only 7 rounds. See the patch "crypto: chacha - add XChaCha12
support" for more details about why we need XChaCha12 support.

Add an XChaCha20 implementation that is hooked up to the ARM NEON
implementation of ChaCha20. This is needed for use in the Adiantum
encryption mode; see the generic code patch,
"crypto: chacha20-generic - add XChaCha20 support", for more details.
We also update the NEON code to support HChaCha20 on one block, so we
can use that in XChaCha20 rather than calling the generic HChaCha20.
This required factoring the permutation out into its own macro.

Make the ARM scalar AES implementation closer to constant-time by
disabling interrupts and prefetching the tables into L1 cache. This is
feasible because due to ARM's "free" rotations, the main tables are only
1024 bytes instead of the usual 4096 used by most AES implementations.
On ARM Cortex-A7, the speed loss is only about 5%. The resulting code
is still over twice as fast as aes_ti.c. Responsiveness is potentially
a concern, but interrupts are only disabled for a single AES block.
Note that even after these changes, the implementation still isn't
necessarily guaranteed to be constant-time; see
https://cr.yp.to/antiforgery/cachetiming-20050414.pdf for a discussion
of the many difficulties involved in writing truly constant-time AES
software. But it's valuable to make such attacks more difficult.
Much of this patch is based on patches suggested by Ard Biesheuvel.

These are unused, undesired, and have never actually been used by
anybody. The original authors of this code have changed their mind about
its inclusion. While originally proposed for disk encryption on low-end
devices, the idea was discarded [1] in favor of something else before
that could really get going. Therefore, this patch removes Speck.

Add an ARM NEON-accelerated implementation of Speck-XTS. It operates on
128-byte chunks at a time, i.e. 8 blocks for Speck128 or 16 blocks for
Speck64. Each 128-byte chunk goes through XTS preprocessing, then is
encrypted/decrypted (doing one cipher round for all the blocks, then the
next round, etc.), then goes through XTS postprocessing.
The performance depends on the processor but can be about 3 times faster
than the generic code. For example, on an ARMv7 processor we observe
the following performance with Speck128/2 |
