"Prediction resistance", i.e. the property that the RNG's output is
unpredictable even after a state compromise, might sound like a nice
property to have. In reality, it's not very practical, as it requires
that fresh entropy be pulled on every request. (The normal Linux RNG
doesn't provide prediction resistance.) In the case of drbg.c, that
means pulling from "jitterentropy", which is extremely slow.
For some perspective, running a simple benchmark, generating 32 random
bytes takes the following amount of time:
get_random_bytes(): 90 ns
drbg_nopr_hmac_sha512: 3707 ns
drbg_pr_hmac_sha512: 773082 ns
So at least in this case, the "pr" (prediction-resistant) DRBG is over
200 times slower than the "nopr" (non-prediction-resistant) DRBG, or
over 8000 times slower than the normal Linux RNG. While anyone using
drbg.c has always had to tolerate that it's slower than the normal Linux
RNG, the "pr" DRBG is clearly at another level of slowness.
Thus, the following is also entirely unsurprising:
- FIPS 140-3 doesn't actually require that SP800-90A DRBG
implementations support prediction resistance. The non-prediction
resistant DRBGs can be, and have been, certified.
- drbg.c registers "drbg_nopr_hmac_sha512" with a higher cra_priority
than "drbg_pr_hmac_sha512". So "drbg_nopr_hmac_sha512" is already
the one actually being used in practice.
Given these considerations, it's clear that "drbg_pr_hmac_sha512" isn't
actually useful, and it essentially just existed as another curiosity in
the museum of crypto algorithms. Remove it to simplify the code.

- Replace (buf, buflen) with (out, outlen)
- Update (out, outlen) as we go along
- Use size_t for lengths
- Use min()
- Adjust some comments and log messages
- Rename a variable named 'len' to 'err', since it isn't a length

We're now incorporating 32 bytes from get_random_bytes() in the
additional input string on every request. The additional input string
is processed with a call to drbg_hmac_update(), which is exactly how the
seed is processed. Thus, in reality this is as good as a reseed.
From the perspective of FIPS 140-3, it isn't as good as a reseed. But
it doesn't actually matter, because from FIPS's point of view
get_random_bytes() provides zero entropy anyway.
Thus, neither the reseed with more get_random_bytes() every 300s, nor
the logic that reseeds more frequently before rng_is_initialized(), is
actually needed anymore. Remove it to simplify the code significantly.
(Technically the use of get_random_bytes() in drbg_seed() itself could
be removed too. But it's safer to keep it there for now.)

Currently a formal reseed happens only after each 1048576 requests.
That's quite a high number. Let's follow the example of BoringSSL and
use a more conservative value of 4096.
Note that in practice this makes little difference, now that we're
including 32 bytes from get_random_bytes() in the additional input on
every request anyway, which is a de facto reseed.
But for the same reason, we might as well decrease the actual reseed
interval to something more reasonable.

Woodage & Shumow (2018) (https://eprint.iacr.org/2018/349.pdf) showed
that contrary to the claims made by NIST in SP800-90A, HMAC_DRBG doesn't
satisfy the formal definition of forward secrecy (i.e. "backtracking
resistance") when it's called with an empty additional input string.
The actual attack seems pretty benign, as it doesn't actually give the
attacker any previous RNG output, but rather just allows them to test
whether their guess of the previous block of RNG output is correct.
Regardless, it's an annoying design flaw, and it's yet another example
of why NIST's DRBGs aren't all that great.
Meanwhile, the kernel's HMAC_DRBG code also tries to reseed itself
automatically after random.c has reseeded itself. But the
implementation is buggy, as it just checks whether 300 seconds have
elapsed, rather than looking at the actual generation counter.
Let's just follow the example of BoringSSL and use the conservative
approach of always including 32 bytes of "regular" random data in the
additional input string. This fixes both issues described above.
This does reduce performance. But this should be tolerable, since:
- Due to earlier changes, the kernel code that was previously using
drbg.c regardless of FIPS mode is now using it only in FIPS mode.
- The additional input string is processed only once per request. So
if a lot of bytes are generated at once, the cost is amortized.
- The NIST DRBGs are notoriously slow anyway.
Note that this fix should have no impact (either positive or negative)
on FIPS 140 certifiability. From FIPS's point of view the code added by
this commit simply doesn't matter: it adds zero entropy to something
that doesn't need to contain entropy.

drbg_kcapi_seed() calls drbg_uninstantiate() only to free drbg->jent and
set drbg->instantiated = false. However, the latter is necessary only
because drbg_kcapi_seed() sets drbg->instantiated = true too early. Fix
that, then just inline the freeing of drbg->jent.
Then, simplify the actual "uninstantiate" in drbg_kcapi_exit(). Just
free drbg->jent (note that this is a no-op on error and null pointers),
then memzero_explicit() the entire drbg_state.
Note that in reality the memzero_explicit() is redundant, since the
crypto_rng API zeroizes the memory anyway. But the way SP800-90A is
worded, it's easy to imagine that someone assessing conformance with it
would be looking for code in drbg.c that says it does an "Uninstantiate"
and does the zeroization. So it's probably worth keeping it somewhat
explicit, even though that means double zeroization in practice.

Currently some of the steps of "Instantiate the DRBG" occur in a
convoluted way in different places in the call stack:
drbg_instantiate()
=> drbg_seed(reseed=0) sets the raw HMAC key drbg_state::C to its
correct initial value, and it sets the state value
drbg_state::V to an *incorrect* initial value.
=> drbg_hmac_update(reseed=0) overwrites drbg_state::V with the
correct initial value, then prepares the hmac_sha512_key
drbg_state::key from the initial raw HMAC key drbg_state::C.
Later, each time the HMAC key is updated, drbg_hmac_update() also uses
drbg_state::C to temporarily store the new raw key.
Simplify all of this by:
- Making drbg_instantiate() set the correct initial values of
drbg_state::V and drbg_state::key.
- Converting drbg_hmac_update() to generate the raw key in a
temporary on-stack array instead of drbg_state::C.
- Removing drbg_state::C.

Remove support for the HMAC-SHA256 and HMAC-SHA384 variants of
HMAC_DRBG, leaving only the HMAC-SHA512 variant of HMAC_DRBG.
HMAC-SHA512 is already the default. The default did used to be
HMAC-SHA256, but several years ago it was upgraded to HMAC-SHA512 "to
support compliance with SP800-90B and SP800-90C". Given that the point
of crypto/drbg.c is compliance with those standards, and there's also no
technical reason to prefer HMAC-SHA384 in this situation even if
acceptable, there's really no point in offering anything else.
Note: now that only HMAC-SHA512 remains, a lot of unnecessary
abstractions can be removed. A later commit will do that. This commit
just straightforwardly removes the HMAC-SHA256 and HMAC-SHA384 code.

Remove the support for HASH_DRBG. It's likely unused code, seeing as
HMAC_DRBG is always enabled and prioritized over it unless
NETLINK_CRYPTO is used to change the algorithm priorities.
There's also no compelling reason to support more than one of
[HMAC_DRBG, HASH_DRBG, CTR_DRBG]. By definition, callers cannot tell
any difference in their outputs. And all are FIPS-certifiable, which is
the only point of the kernel's NIST DRBGs anyway.
Switching to HASH_DRBG doesn't seem all that compelling, either. For
one, it's more complex than HMAC_DRBG.
Thus, let's just drop HASH_DRBG support and focus on HMAC_DRBG.

Remove the support for CTR_DRBG. It's likely unused code, seeing as
HMAC_DRBG is always enabled and prioritized over it unless
NETLINK_CRYPTO is used to change the algorithm priorities.
There's also no compelling reason to support more than one of
[HMAC_DRBG, HASH_DRBG, CTR_DRBG]. By definition, callers cannot tell
any difference in their outputs. And all are FIPS-certifiable, which is
the only point of the kernel's NIST DRBGs anyway.
Switching to CTR_DRBG doesn't seem all that compelling, either. While
it's often the fastest NIST DRBG, it has several disadvantages:
- CTR_DRBG uses AES. Some platforms don't have AES acceleration at all,
causing a fallback to the table-based AES code which is very slow and
can be vulnerable to cache-timing attacks. In contrast, HMAC_DRBG
uses primitives that are consistently constant-time.
- CTR_DRBG is usually considered to be somewhat less cryptographically
robust than HMAC_DRBG. Granted, HMAC_DRBG isn't all that great
either, e.g. given the negative result from Woodage & Shumow (2018)
(https://eprint.iacr.org/2018/349.pdf), but that can be worked around.
- CTR_DRBG is more complex than HMAC_DRBG, risking bugs. Indeed, while
reviewing the CTR_DRBG code, I found two bugs, including one where it
can return success while leaving the output buffer uninitialized.
- The kernel's implementation of CTR_DRBG uses an "ctr(aes)"
crypto_skcipher and relies on it returning the next counter value.
That's fragile, and indeed historically many "ctr(aes)"
crypto_skcipher implementations haven't done that. E.g. see
commit 511306b2d075 ("crypto: arm/aes-ce - update IV after partial final CTR block"),
commit fa5fd3afc7e6 ("crypto: arm64/aes-blk - update IV after partial final CTR block"),
commit 371731ec2179 ("crypto: atmel-aes - Fix saving of IV for CTR mode"),
commit 25baaf8e2c93 ("crypto: crypto4xx - fix ctr-aes missing output IV"),
commit 334d37c9e263 ("crypto: caam - update IV using HW support"),
commit 0a4491d3febe ("crypto: chelsio - count incomplete block in IV"),
commit e8e3c1ca57d4 ("crypto: s5p - update iv after AES-CBC op end").
I.e., there were many years where the kernel's CTR_DRBG code (if it
were to have actually been used) repeated outputs on some platforms.
AES-CTR also uses a 128-bit counter, which creates overflow edge cases
that are sometimes gotten wrong. E.g. see commit 009b30ac7444
("crypto: vmx - CTR: always increment IV as quadword").
So, while switching to CTR_DRBG for performance reasons isn't completely
out of the question (notably BoringSSL uses it), it would take quite a
bit more work to create a solid implementation of it in the kernel,
including a more solid implementation of AES-CTR itself (in lib/crypto/,
with a scalar bit-sliced fallback, etc). Since HMAC_DRBG has always
been the default NIST DRBG variant in the kernel and is in a better
state, let's just standardize on it for now.

FIPS 140-2 required that a continuous test for repeated outputs be done
on both "Approved RNGs" and "Non-Approved RNGs".
That's apparently why crypto/drbg.c does such a test on the bytes it
pulls from get_random_bytes(), despite get_random_bytes() being a
"Non-Approved RNG" that is credited with zero entropy for FIPS purposes.
(From FIPS's point of view, the "Approved RNG" is jitterentropy.)
FIPS 140-3 "modernized" the continuous RNG test requirements. They're
now a bit more sophisticated, requiring both an "Adaptive Proportion
Test" and a "Repetition Count Test".
At the same time, FIPS 140-3 doesn't require continuous RNG tests on
"Non-Approved RNGs" if a "vetted conditioning component" is used. The
SP800-90A DRBGs are exactly such a vetted conditioning component, by
their design. (In the case of HASH_DRBG and CTR_DRBG, the derivation
function does have to be implemented. But the kernel does that.)
In other words: from FIPS 140-3's point of view, get_random_bytes()
still produces zero entropy, but the way the DRBG combines those bytes
with the jitterentropy bytes preserves all the "approved" entropy from
jitterentropy. Thus no test for get_random_bytes() is required.
Seeing as FIPS 140-2 certificates stopped being issued in 2021 in favor
of FIPS 140-3, this means this code is obsolete. Remove it.

However, the code only boosts the priority to 400, which is less than

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Lock debugging:

side of the balance actual locking bugs found by Sparse context
analysis is also rather ... sparse: I found only 3 such commits in

maintenance overhead is rather high and there appears to be no
active policy in place to achieve a zero-warnings baseline to move
the annotations & fixers to developers who introduce new code.
Clang context analysis is more complete and more aggressive in
trying to find bugs, at least in principle. Plus it has a different
model to enabling it: it's enabled subsystem by subsystem, which
results in zero warnings on all relevant kernel builds (as far as
our testing managed to cover it). Which allowed us to enable it by
default, similar to other compiler warnings, with the expectation
that there are no warnings going forward. This enforces a
zero-warnings baseline on clang-22+ builds (Which are still limited
in distribution, admittedly)
Hopefully the Clang approach can lead to a more maintainable
zero-warnings status quo and policy, with more and more subsystems
and drivers enabling the feature. Context tracking can be enabled
for all kernel code via WARN_CONTEXT_ANALYSIS_ALL=y (default
disabled), but this will generate a lot of false positives.
( Having said that, Sparse support could still be added back,
if anyone is interested - the removal patch is still
relatively straightforward to revert at this stage. )

Convert lock initialization to scoped guarded initialization where
lock-guarded members are initialized in the same scope.
This ensures the context analysis treats the context as active during member
initialization. This is required to avoid errors once implicit context
assertion is removed.

Switch from the old AES library functions (which use struct
crypto_aes_ctx) to the new ones (which use struct aes_enckey). This
eliminates the unnecessary computation and caching of the decryption
round keys. The new AES en/decryption functions are also much faster
and use AES instructions when supported by the CPU.
Note that in addition to the change in the key preparation function and
the key struct type itself, the change in the type of the key struct
results in aes_encrypt() (which is temporarily a type-generic macro)
calling the new encryption function rather than the old one.

Enable context analysis for crypto subsystem.
This demonstrates a larger conversion to use Clang's context
analysis. The benefit is additional static checking of locking rules,
along with better documentation.
Note the use of the __acquire_ret macro how to define an API where a
function returns a pointer to an object (struct scomp_scratch) with a
lock held. Additionally, the analysis only resolves aliases where the
analysis unambiguously sees that a variable was not reassigned after
initialization, requiring minor code changes.

Currently, drbg_fips_continuous_test() only returns 0 and -EAGAIN, so an
early return from the *do*/*while* loop in drbg_get_random_bytes() just
isn't possible. Make drbg_fips_continuous_test() return bool instead of
*int* (using true instead of 0 and false instead of -EAGAIN). This way,
we can further simplify drbg_get_random_bytes()...
