2021-08-12crypto: sun8i-ce - use kfree_sensitive to clear and free sensitive dataJason Wang
The kfree_sensitive is a kernel API to clear sensitive information that should not be leaked to other future users of the same memory objects and free the memory. Its function is the same as the combination of memzero_explicit and kfree. Thus, we can replace the combination APIs with the single kfree_sensitive API.

2021-03-12crypto: sun4i-ss - simplify optional reset handlingPhilipp Zabel
As of commit bb475230b8e5 ("reset: make optional functions really optional"), the reset framework API calls use NULL pointers to describe optional, non-present reset controls.

2021-01-03crypto: sun4i-ss - fix kmap usageCorentin Labbe
With the recent kmap change, some tests which were conditional on CONFIG_DEBUG_HIGHMEM now are enabled by default. This permit to detect a problem in sun4i-ss usage of kmap. sun4i-ss uses two kmap via sg_miter (one for input, one for output), but using two kmap at the same time is hard: "the ordering has to be correct and with sg_miter that's probably hard to get right." (quoting Tlgx) So the easiest solution is to never have two sg_miter/kmap open at the same time. After each use of sg_miter, I store the current index, for being able to resume sg_miter to the right place.

2020-11-20crypto: sha - split sha.h into sha1.h and sha2.hEric Biggers
Currently <crypto/sha.h> contains declarations for both SHA-1 and SHA-2, and <crypto/sha3.h> contains declarations for SHA-3. This organization is inconsistent, but more importantly SHA-1 is no longer considered to be cryptographically secure. So to the extent possible, SHA-1 shouldn't be grouped together with any of the other SHA versions, and usage of it should be phased out. Therefore, split <crypto/sha.h> into two headers <crypto/sha1.h> and <crypto/sha2.h>, and make everyone explicitly specify whether they want the declarations for SHA-1, SHA-2, or both. This avoids making the SHA-1 declarations visible to files that don't want anything to do with SHA-1. It also prepares for potentially moving sha1.h into a new insecure/ or dangerous/ directory.

2020-08-07mm, treewide: rename kzfree() to kfree_sensitive()Waiman Long
As said by Linus: A symmetric naming is only helpful if it implies symmetries in use. Otherwise it's actively misleading. In "kzalloc()", the z is meaningful and an important part of what the caller wants. In "kzfree()", the z is actively detrimental, because maybe in the future we really _might_ want to use that "memfill(0xdeadbeef)" or something. The "zero" part of the interface isn't even _relevant_. The main reason that kzfree() exists is to clear sensitive information that should not be leaked to other future users of the same memory objects. Rename kzfree() to kfree_sensitive() to follow the example of the recently added kvfree_sensitive() and make the intention of the API more explicit. In addition, memzero_explicit() is used to clear the memory to make sure that it won't get optimized away by the compiler. The renaming is done by using the command sequence: git grep -w --name-only kzfree |\ xargs sed -i 's/kzfree/kfree_sensitive/' followed by some editing of the kfree_sensitive() kerneldoc and adding a kzfree backward compatibility macro in slab.h.
