Linux kernel modifications for the Kernel Hacking exam
b350bee5ea
In preparation for removal of VLAs due to skcipher requests on the stack via SKCIPHER_REQUEST_ON_STACK() usage, this introduces the infrastructure for the "sync skcipher" tfm, which is for handling the on-stack cases of skcipher, which are always non-ASYNC and have a known limited request size. The crypto API additions: struct crypto_sync_skcipher (wrapper for struct crypto_skcipher) crypto_alloc_sync_skcipher() crypto_free_sync_skcipher() crypto_sync_skcipher_setkey() crypto_sync_skcipher_get_flags() crypto_sync_skcipher_set_flags() crypto_sync_skcipher_clear_flags() crypto_sync_skcipher_blocksize() crypto_sync_skcipher_ivsize() crypto_sync_skcipher_reqtfm() skcipher_request_set_sync_tfm() SYNC_SKCIPHER_REQUEST_ON_STACK() (with tfm type check) Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Reviewed-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> |

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
