Merge the mvebu/drivers branch of the arm-soc tree which contains
just a single patch bfa1ce5f38938cc9e6c7f2d1011f88eba2b9e2b2 ("bus:
mvebu-mbus: add mv_mbus_dram_info_nooverlap()") that happens to be
a prerequisite of the new marvell/cesa crypto driver.

The struct aead_instance is meant to extend struct crypto_instance
by incorporating the extra members of struct aead_alg. However,
the current layout which is copied from shash/ahash does not specify
the struct fully. In particular only aead_alg is present.
For shash/ahash this works because users there add extra headroom
to sizeof(struct crypto_instance) when allocating the instance.
Unfortunately for aead, this bit was lost when the new aead_instance
was added.
Rather than fixing it like shash/ahash, this patch simply expands
struct aead_instance to contain what is supposed to be there, i.e.,
adding struct crypto_instance.
In order to not break existing AEAD users, this is done through an
anonymous union.

The struct crypto_alg is embedded into various type-specific structs
such as aead_alg. This is then used as part of instances such as
struct aead_instance. It is also embedded into the generic struct
crypto_instance. In order to ensure that struct aead_instance can
be converted to struct crypto_instance when necessary, we need to
ensure that crypto_alg is aligned properly.
This patch adds an alignment attribute to struct crypto_alg to
ensure this.

Move the contents of the include/linux/nx842.h header file into the
drivers/crypto/nx/nx-842.h header file. Remove the nx842.h header
file and its entry in the MAINTAINERS file.
The include/linux/nx842.h header originally was there because the
crypto/842.c driver needed it to communicate with the nx-842 hw
driver. However, that crypto compression driver was moved into
the drivers/crypto/nx/ directory, and now can directly include the
nx-842.h header. Nothing else needs the public include/linux/nx842.h
header file, as all use of the nx-842 hardware driver will be through
the "842-nx" crypto compression driver, since the direct nx-842 api is
very limited in the buffer alignments and sizes that it will accept,
and the crypto compression interface handles those limitations and
allows any alignment and size buffers.

As required by SP800-90A, the DRBG implements are reseeding threshold.
This threshold is at 2**48 (64 bit) and 2**32 bit (32 bit) as
implemented in drbg_max_requests.
With the recently introduced changes, the DRBG is now always used as a
stdrng which is initialized very early in the boot cycle. To ensure that
sufficient entropy is present, the Jitter RNG is added to even provide
entropy at early boot time.
However, the 2nd seed source, the nonblocking pool, is usually
degraded at that time. Therefore, the DRBG is seeded with the Jitter RNG
(which I believe contains good entropy, which however is questioned by
others) and is seeded with a degradded nonblocking pool. This seed is
now used for quasi the lifetime of the system (2**48 requests is a lot).
The patch now changes the reseed threshold as follows: up until the time
the DRBG obtains a seed from a fully iniitialized nonblocking pool, the
reseeding threshold is lowered such that the DRBG is forced to reseed
itself resonably often. Once it obtains the seed from a fully
initialized nonblocking pool, the reseed threshold is set to the value
required by SP800-90A.

The get_blocking_random_bytes API is broken because the wait can
be arbitrarily long (potentially forever) so there is no safe way
of calling it from within the kernel.
This patch replaces it with a callback API instead. The callback
is invoked potentially from interrupt context so the user needs
to schedule their own work thread if necessary.
In addition to adding callbacks, they can also be removed as
otherwise this opens up a way for user-space to allocate kernel
memory with no bound (by opening algif_rng descriptors and then
closing them).

When performing a dma_map_sg() call, the number of sg entries to map is
required. Using sg_nents to retrieve the number of sg entries will
return the total number of entries in the sg list up to the entry marked
as the end. If there happen to be unused entries in the list, these will
still be counted. Some dma_map_sg() implementations will not handle the
unused entries correctly (lib/swiotlb.c) and execute a BUG_ON.
The sg_nents_for_len() function will traverse the sg list and return the
number of entries required to satisfy the supplied length argument. This
can then be supplied to the dma_map_sg() call to successfully map the
sg.

This commit introduces a variant of the mv_mbus_dram_info() function
called mv_mbus_dram_info_nooverlap(). Both functions are used by
Marvell drivers supporting devices doing DMA, and provide them a
description the DRAM ranges that they need to configure their DRAM
windows.
The ranges provided by the mv_mbus_dram_info() function may overlap
with the I/O windows if there is a lot (>= 4 GB) of RAM
installed. This is not a problem for most of the DMA masters, except
for the upcoming new CESA crypto driver because it does DMA to the
SRAM, which is mapped through an I/O window. For this unit, we need to
have DRAM ranges that do not overlap with the I/O windows.
A first implementation done in commit 1737cac69369 ("bus: mvebu-mbus:
make sure SDRAM CS for DMA don't overlap the MBus bridge window"),
changed the information returned by mv_mbus_dram_info() to match this
requirement. However, it broke the requirement of the other DMA
masters than the DRAM ranges should have power of two sizes.
To solve this situation, this commit introduces a new
mv_mbus_dram_info_nooverlap() function, which returns the same
information as mv_mbus_dram_info(), but guaranteed to not overlap with
the I/O windows.
In the end, it gives us two variants of the mv_mbus_dram_info*()
functions:
- The normal one, mv_mbus_dram_info(), which has been around for many
years. This function returns the raw DRAM ranges, which are
guaranteed to use power of two sizes, but will overlap with I/O
windows. This function will therefore be used by all DMA masters
(SATA, XOR, Ethernet, etc.) except the CESA crypto driver.
- The new 'nooverlap' variant, mv_mbus_dram_info_nooverlap(). This
function returns DRAM ranges after they have been "tweaked" to make
sure they don't overlap with I/O windows. By doing this tweaking,
we remove the power of two size guarantee. This variant will be
used by the new CESA crypto driver.

This patch defines the behaviour of AD in the new interface more
clearly. In particular, it specifies that if the user must copy
the AD to the destination manually when src != dst if they wish
to guarantee that the destination buffer contains a copy of the
AD.
The reason for this is that otherwise every AEAD implementation
would have to perform such a copy when src != dst. In reality
most users do in-place processing where src == dst so this is
not an issue.
This patch also kills some remaining references to cryptoff.

During initialization, the DRBG now tries to allocate a handle of the
Jitter RNG. If such a Jitter RNG is available during seeding, the DRBG
pulls the required entropy/nonce string from get_random_bytes and
concatenates it with a string of equal size from the Jitter RNG. That
combined string is now the seed for the DRBG.
Written differently, the initial seed of the DRBG is now:
get_random_bytes(entropy/nonce) || jitterentropy (entropy/nonce)
If the Jitter RNG is not available, the DRBG only seeds from
get_random_bytes.

after the first non-blocking seeding is completed. As required by the

is triggered by random.c once entropy is available. That callback

In order to prepare for the addition of the asynchronous seeding call,
the invocation of seeding the DRBG is moved out into a helper function.
In addition, a block of memory is allocated during initialization time
that will be used as a scratchpad for obtaining entropy. That scratchpad
is used for the initial seeding operation as well as by the
asynchronous seeding call. The memory must be zeroized every time the
DRBG seeding call succeeds to avoid entropy data lingering in memory.

This patch converts the seqiv IV generator to work with the new
AEAD interface where IV generators are just normal AEAD algorithms.
Full backwards compatibility is paramount at this point since
no users have yet switched over to the new interface. Nor can
they switch to the new interface until IV generation is fully
supported by it.
So this means we are adding two versions of seqiv alongside the
existing one. The first one is the one that will be used when
the underlying AEAD algorithm has switched over to the new AEAD
interface. The second one handles the current case where the
underlying AEAD algorithm still uses the old interface.
Both versions export themselves through the new AEAD interface.

The primary user of AEAD, IPsec includes the IV in the AD in
most cases, except where it is implicitly authenticated by the
underlying algorithm.
The way it is currently implemented is a hack because we pass
the data in piecemeal and the underlying algorithms try to stitch
them back up into one piece.
This is why this patch is adding a new interface that allows a
single SG list to be passed in that contains everything so the
algorithm implementors do not have to stitch.
The new interface accepts a single source SG list and a single
destination SG list. Both must be laid out as follows:
AD, skipped data, plain/cipher text, ICV
The ICV is not present from the source during encryption and from
the destination during decryption.
For the top-level IPsec AEAD algorithm the plain/cipher text will
contain the generated (or received) IV.

In commit 0b053c951829 ("lib: memzero_explicit: use barrier instead
of OPTIMIZER_HIDE_VAR"), we made memzero_explicit() more robust in
case LTO would decide to inline memzero_explicit() and eventually
find out it could be elimiated as dead store.
While using barrier() works well for the case of gcc, recent efforts
from LLVMLinux people suggest to use llvm as an alternative to gcc,
and there, Stephan found in a simple stand-alone user space example
that llvm could nevertheless optimize and thus elimitate the memset().
A similar issue has been observed in the referenced llvm bug report,
which is regarded as not-a-bug.
Based on some experiments, icc is a bit special on its own, while it
doesn't seem to eliminate the memset(), it could do so with an own
implementation, and then result in similar findings as with llvm.
The fix in this patch now works for all three compilers (also tested
with more aggressive optimization levels). Arguably, in the current
kernel tree it's more of a theoretical issue, but imho, it's better
to be pedantic about it.
It's clearly visible with gcc/llvm though, with the below code: if we
would have used barrier() only here, llvm would have omitted clearing,
not so with barrier_data() variant:
static inline void memzero_explicit(void *s, size_t count)
{
memset(s, 0, count);
barrier_data(s);
}
int main(void)
{
char buff[20];
memzero_explicit(buff, sizeof(buff));
return 0;
}

As gcc, clang, but also icc defines __GNUC__, it's sufficient to define

Pull intel iommu updates from David Woodhouse:
"This lays a little of the groundwork for upcoming Shared Virtual
Memory support — fixing some bogus #defines for capability bits and
adding the new ones, and starting to use the new wider page tables
where we can, in anticipation of actually filling in the new fields
therein.
It also allows graphics devices to be assigned to VM guests again.
This got broken in 3.17 by disallowing assignment of RMRR-afflicted
devices. Like USB, we do understand why there's an RMRR for graphics
devices — and unlike USB, it's actually sane. So we can make an
exception for graphics devices, just as we do USB controllers.
Finally, tone down the warning about the X2APIC_OPT_OUT bit, due to
persistent requests. X2APIC_OPT_OUT was added to the spec as a nasty
hack to allow broken BIOSes to forbid us from using X2APIC when they
do stupid and invasive things and would break if we did.
Someone noticed that since Windows doesn't have full IOMMU support for
DMA protection, setting the X2APIC_OPT_OUT bit made Windows avoid
initialising the IOMMU on the graphics unit altogether.
This means that it would be available for use in "driver mode", where
the IOMMU registers are made available through a BAR of the graphics
device and the graphics driver can do SVM all for itself.
So they started setting the X2APIC_OPT_OUT bit on *all* platforms with
SVM capabilities. And even the platforms which *might*, if the
planets had been aligned correctly, possibly have had SVM capability
but which in practice actually don't"
* git://git.infradead.org/intel-iommu:
iommu/vt-d: support extended root and context entries
iommu/vt-d: Add new extended capabilities from v2.3 VT-d specification
iommu/vt-d: Allow RMRR on graphics devices too
iommu/vt-d: Print x2apic opt out info instead of printing a warning
iommu/vt-d: kill bogus ecap_niotlb_iunits()
