[PATCH 0/3] crypto: af_alg - add TLS type encryption
Hi, The following series adds TLS type authentication. To do this a new template, encauth, is introduced. It is derived from the existing authenc template and modified to work in "first auth then encrypt" mode. The algif interface is also changed to work with the new authentication type. --- Tadeusz Struk (3): crypto: authenc - add TLS type encryption crypto: af_alg - add AEAD operation type crypto: algif_aead - modify algif aead interface to work with encauth crypto/Makefile |2 crypto/af_alg.c |6 + crypto/algif_aead.c | 93 +++- crypto/encauth.c| 510 +++ include/crypto/if_alg.h |1 include/uapi/linux/if_alg.h |4 6 files changed, 601 insertions(+), 15 deletions(-) create mode 100644 crypto/encauth.c -- -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-crypto" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

What is the point of this patch-set? Who is going to be the user? Also you're including padding into the algorithm. That goes against the way we implemented IPsec. What is the justification for doing it in the crypto layer instead of the protocol layer?

Who is going to be the user? The intend is to enable HW acceleration of the TLS protocol. The way it will work is that the user space will send a packet of data via AF_ALG and HW will authenticate and encrypt it in one go. > > Also you're including padding into the algorithm.

In IPSEC the stack does the job of aligning the packet to block size and the crypto layer doesn't need to worry about padding. In TLS we need to make sure that after auth the buff is still block size align, and that is why we need padding. Do you think we should make the user to provide the data in a big enough buffer to accommodate the digest and padding and the padding itself?

There have been suggestions to implement TLS data-path within the kernel. So we should decide whether we pursue that or go with your approach before we start adding algorithms.

We have a prove of concept of a kernel TLS type socket, so called AF_KTLS, which is based on Dave Watson's RFC5288 patch. It handles both TLS and DTLS, unfortunately it is not ready now to be proposed here. There are still issues which should be solved (but mostly user space API design) [1]. If you are interested, we could combine efforts.

I would be more interested to have a generic interface that could do generic algorithm suits like aes-cbc-hmac-sha1 also. This also seems to work in a synchronous (send one and wait) mode, which is a not good solution for HW accelerators, which I'm trying to enable.

This is not a real limitation but an advantage. The cbc-hmac-sha1 needs a lot of hacks to be implemented correct (just take a look at one of the existing implementations). There is no point to bring such hacks into kernel especially since these ciphersuites are banned from HTTP/2.0 (see RFC7540), and have been dropped from TLS 1.3. > This also seems to work in a synchronous (send one and wait) mode, which is a > not good > solution for HW accelerators, which I'm trying to enable. Is that something that cannot be addressed? regards, Nikos -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-crypto" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
