2017-01-09siphash: implement HalfSipHash1-3 for hash tablesJason A. Donenfeld1-0/+75
HalfSipHash, or hsiphash, is a shortened version of SipHash, which generates 32-bit outputs using a weaker 64-bit key. It has *much* lower security margins, and shouldn't be used for anything too sensitive, but it could be used as a hashtable key function replacement, if the output is never exposed, and if the security requirement is not too high. The goal is to make this something that performance-critical jhash users would be willing to use. On 64-bit machines, HalfSipHash1-3 is slower than SipHash1-3, so we alias SipHash1-3 to HalfSipHash1-3 on those systems. 64-bit x86_64: [ 0.509409] test_siphash: SipHash2-4 cycles: 4049181 [ 0.510650] test_siphash: SipHash1-3 cycles: 2512884 [ 0.512205] test_siphash: HalfSipHash1-3 cycles: 3429920 [ 0.512904] test_siphash: JenkinsHash cycles: 978267 So, we map hsiphash() -> SipHash1-3 32-bit x86: [ 0.509868] test_siphash: SipHash2-4 cycles: 14812892 [ 0.513601] test_siphash: SipHash1-3 cycles: 9510710 [ 0.515263] test_siphash: HalfSipHash1-3 cycles: 3856157 [ 0.515952] test_siphash: JenkinsHash cycles: 1148567 So, we map hsiphash() -> HalfSipHash1-3 hsiphash() is roughly 3 times slower than jhash(), but comes with a considerable security improvement.

2017-01-09siphash: add cryptographically secure PRFJason A. Donenfeld1-0/+100
SipHash is a 64-bit keyed hash function that is actually a cryptographically secure PRF, like HMAC. Except SipHash is super fast, and is meant to be used as a hashtable keyed lookup function, or as a general PRF for short input use cases, such as sequence numbers or RNG chaining. For the first usage: There are a variety of attacks known as "hashtable poisoning" in which an attacker forms some data such that the hash of that data will be the same, and then preceeds to fill up all entries of a hashbucket. This is a realistic and well-known denial-of-service vector. Currently hashtables use jhash, which is fast but not secure, and some kind of rotating key scheme (or none at all, which isn't good). SipHash is meant as a replacement for jhash in these cases. There are a modicum of places in the kernel that are vulnerable to hashtable poisoning attacks, either via userspace vectors or network vectors, and there's not a reliable mechanism inside the kernel at the moment to fix it. The first step toward fixing these issues is actually getting a secure primitive into the kernel for developers to use. Then we can, bit by bit, port things over to it as deemed appropriate. While SipHash is extremely fast for a cryptographically secure function, it is likely a bit slower than the insecure jhash, and so replacements will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis based on whether or not the difference in speed is negligible and whether or not the current jhash usage poses a real security risk. For the second usage: A few places in the kernel are using MD5 or SHA1 for creating secure sequence numbers, syn cookies, port numbers, or fast random numbers. SipHash is a faster and more fitting, and more secure replacement for MD5 in those situations. Replacing MD5 and SHA1 with SipHash for these uses is obvious and straight-forward, and so is submitted along with this patch series. There shouldn't be much of a debate over its efficacy. Dozens of languages are already using this internally for their hash tables and PRFs. Some of the BSDs already use this in their kernels. SipHash is a widely known high-speed solution to a widely known set of problems, and it's time we catch-up. Signed-off-by: Jason A.

2017-01-03af_packet: TX_RING support for TPACKET_V3Sowmini Varadhan1-2/+7
Although TPACKET_V3 Rx has some benefits over TPACKET_V2 Rx, *_v3 does not currently have TX_RING support. As a result an application that wants the best perf for Tx and Rx (e.g. to handle request/response transacations) ends up needing 2 sockets, one with *_v2 for Tx and another with *_v3 for Rx. This patch enables TPACKET_V2 compatible Tx features in TPACKET_V3 so that an application can use a single descriptor to get the benefits of _v3 RX_RING and _v2 TX_RING. An application may do a block-send by first filling up multiple frames in the Tx ring and then triggering a transmit. This patch only support fixed size Tx frames for TPACKET_V3, and requires that tp_next_offset must be zero. Signed-off-by: Sowmini Varadhan <sowmini.varadhan@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

For core revision 3.x Address-Aligned Beats is available in two registers. The DT property snps,aal was created for AAL in the DMA bus register, which is a read/write bit. The DT property snps,axi_all was created for AXI_AAL in the AXI bus mode register, which is a read only bit that reflects the value of AAL in the DMA bus register. Since the value of snps,axi_all is never used in the driver, and since the property was created for a bit that is read only, it should be safe to remove the property.

2016-12-29net: dev_weight: TX/RX orthogonalityMatthias Tafelmeier1-0/+21
Oftenly, introducing side effects on packet processing on the other half of the stack by adjusting one of TX/RX via sysctl is not desirable. There are cases of demand for asymmetric, orthogonal configurability. This holds true especially for nodes where RPS for RFS usage on top is configured and therefore use the 'old dev_weight'. This is quite a common base configuration setup nowadays, even with NICs of superior processing support (e.g. aRFS). A good example use case are nodes acting as noSQL data bases with a large number of tiny requests and rather fewer but large packets as responses. It's affordable to have large budget and rx dev_weights for the requests. But as a side effect having this large a number on TX processed in one run can overwhelm drivers. This patch therefore introduces an independent configurability via sysctl to userland. Signed-off-by: Matthias Tafelmeier <matthias.tafelmeier@gmx.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

Pull x86 cache allocation interface from Thomas Gleixner: "This provides support for Intel's Cache Allocation Technology, a cache partitioning mechanism. The interface is odd, but the hardware interface of that CAT stuff is odd as well. We tried hard to come up with an abstraction, but that only allows rather simple partitioning, but no way of sharing and dealing with the per package nature of this mechanism. In the end we decided to expose the allocation bitmaps directly so all combinations of the hardware can be utilized. There are two ways of associating a cache partition: - Task A task can be added to a resource group. It uses the cache partition associated to the group. - CPU All tasks which are not member of a resource group use the group to which the CPU they are running on is associated with. That allows for simple CPU based partitioning schemes. The main expected user sare: - Virtualization so a VM can only trash only the associated part of the cash w/o disturbing others - Real-Time systems to seperate RT and general workloads. - Latency sensitive enterprise workloads - In theory this also can be used to protect against cache side channel attacks" [ Intel RDT is "Resource Director Technology". The interface really is rather odd and very specific, which delayed this pull request while I was thinking about it. The pull request itself came in early during the merge window, I just delayed it until things had calmed down and I had more time. But people tell me they'll use this, and the good news is that it is _so_ specific that it's rather independent of anything else, and no user is going to depend on the interface since it's pretty rare.

The patches regarding eee-broken-modes was merged before all people involved could find an agreement on the best way to move forward. While we agreed on having a DT property to mark particular modes as broken, the value used for eee-broken-modes mapped the phy register in very direct way. Because of this, the concern is that it could be used to implement configuration policies instead of describing a broken HW. In the end, having a boolean property for each mode seems to be preferred over one bit field value mapping the register (too) directly.

2016-12-20ima: define a canonical binary_runtime_measurements list formatMimi Zohar1-0/+4
The IMA binary_runtime_measurements list is currently in platform native format. To allow restoring a measurement list carried across kexec with a different endianness than the targeted kernel, this patch defines little-endian as the canonical format. For big endian systems wanting to save/restore the measurement list from a system with a different endianness, a new boot command line parameter named "ima_canonical_fmt" is defined.

2016-12-16ovl: redirect on rename-dirMiklos Szeredi1-2/+19
Current code returns EXDEV when a directory would need to be copied up to move. We could copy up the directory tree in this case, but there's another, simpler solution: point to old lower directory from moved upper directory. This is achieved with a "trusted.overlay.redirect" xattr storing the path relative to the root of the overlay. After such attribute has been set, the directory can be moved without further actions required. This is a backward incompatible feature, old kernels won't be able to correctly mount an overlay containing redirected directories. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@redhat.com>
