This adds support for receiving KeyUpdate messages (RFC 8446, 4.6.3 [1]). A sender transmits a KeyUpdate message and then changes its TX key. The receiver should react by updating its RX key before processing the next message.
This patchset implements key updates by: 1. pausing decryption when a KeyUpdate message is received, to avoid attempting to use the old key to decrypt a record encrypted with the new key 2. returning -EKEYEXPIRED to syscalls that cannot receive the KeyUpdate message, until the rekey has been performed by userspace 3. passing the KeyUpdate message to userspace as a control message 4. allowing updates of the crypto_info via the TLS_TX/TLS_RX setsockopts
This API has been tested with gnutls to make sure that it allows userspace libraries to implement key updates [2]. Thanks to Frantisek Krenzelok fkrenzel@redhat.com for providing the implementation in gnutls and testing the kernel patches.
======================================================================= Discussions around v2 of this patchset focused on how HW offload would interact with rekey.
RX - The existing SW path will handle all records between the KeyUpdate message signaling the change of key and the new key becoming known to the kernel -- those will be queued encrypted, and decrypted in SW as they are read by userspace (once the key is provided, ie same as this patchset) - Call ->tls_dev_del + ->tls_dev_add immediately during setsockopt(TLS_RX)
TX - After setsockopt(TLS_TX), switch to the existing SW path (not the current device_fallback) until we're able to re-enable HW offload - tls_device_sendmsg will call into tls_sw_sendmsg under lock_sock to avoid changing socket ops during the rekey while another thread might be waiting on the lock - We only re-enable HW offload (call ->tls_dev_add to install the new key in HW) once all records sent with the old key have been ACKed. At this point, all unacked records are SW-encrypted with the new key, and the old key is unused by both HW and retransmissions. - If there are no unacked records when userspace does setsockopt(TLS_TX), we can (try to) install the new key in HW immediately. - If yet another key has been provided via setsockopt(TLS_TX), we don't install intermediate keys, only the latest. - TCP notifies ktls of ACKs via the icsk_clean_acked callback. In case of a rekey, tls_icsk_clean_acked will record when all data sent with the most recent past key has been sent. The next call to sendmsg will install the new key in HW. - We close and push the current SW record before reenabling offload.
If ->tls_dev_add fails to install the new key in HW, we stay in SW mode. We can add a counter to keep track of this.
In addition:
Because we can't change socket ops during a rekey, we'll also have to modify do_tls_setsockopt_conf to check ctx->tx_conf and only call either tls_set_device_offload or tls_set_sw_offload. RX already uses the same ops for both TLS_HW and TLS_SW, so we could switch between HW and SW mode on rekey.
An alternative would be to have a common sendmsg which locks the socket and then calls the correct implementation. We'll need that anyway for the offload under rekey case, so that would only add a test to the SW path's ops (compared to the current code). That should allow us to simplify build_protos a bit, but might have a performance impact - we'll need to check it if we want to go that route. =======================================================================
Changes since v3: - rebase on top of net-next - rework tls_check_pending_rekey according to Jakub's feedback - add statistics for rekey: {RX,TX}REKEY{OK,ERROR} - some coding style clean ups
