[PATCH net v2 0/5] macsec: offload-related fixes

[Sabrina Dubroca]

I'm working on a dummy offload for macsec on netdevsim. It just has a
small SecY and RXSC table so I can trigger failures easily on the
ndo_* side. It has exposed a couple of issues.

The first patch is a revert of commit c850240b6c41 ("net: macsec:
report real_dev features when HW offloading is enabled"). That commit
tried to improve the performance of macsec offload by taking advantage
of some of the NIC's features, but in doing so, broke macsec offload
when the lower device supports both macsec and ipsec offload, as the
ipsec offload feature flags were copied from the real device. Since
the macsec device doesn't provide xdo_* ops, the XFRM core rejects the
registration of the new macsec device in xfrm_api_check.

I'm working on re-adding those feature flags when offload is
available, but I haven't fully solved that yet. I think it would be
safer to do that second part in net-next considering how complex
feature interactions tend to be.

v2:
 - better describe the issue introduced by commit c850240b6c41 (Leon
   Romanovsky)
 - drop unnecessary !! (Leon Romanovsky)

[PATCH net v2 1/5] Revert "net: macsec: report real_dev features when HW offloading is enabled"

[Sabrina Dubroca]

This reverts commit c850240b6c4132574a00f2da439277ab94265b66.

That commit tried to improve the performance of macsec offload by
taking advantage of some of the NIC's features, but in doing so, broke
macsec offload when the lower device supports both macsec and ipsec
offload, as the ipsec offload feature flags (mainly NETIF_F_HW_ESP)
were copied from the real device. Since the macsec device doesn't
provide xdo_* ops, the XFRM core rejects the registration of the new
macsec device in xfrm_api_check.

Example perf trace when running
  ip link add link eni1np1 type macsec port 4 offload mac

    ip   737 [003]   795.477676: probe:xfrm_dev_event__REGISTER      name="macsec0" features=0x1c000080014869
              xfrm_dev_event+0x3a
              notifier_call_chain+0x47
              register_netdevice+0x846
              macsec_newlink+0x25a

    ip   737 [003]   795.477687:   probe:xfrm_dev_event__return      ret=0x8002 (NOTIFY_BAD)
             notifier_call_chain+0x47
             register_netdevice+0x846
             macsec_newlink+0x25a

dev->features includes NETIF_F_HW_ESP (0x04000000000000), so
xfrm_api_check returns NOTIFY_BAD because we don't have
dev->xfrmdev_ops on the macsec device.

We could probably propagate GSO and a few other features from the
lower device, similar to macvlan. This will be done in a future patch.

I think it works when the offload enablement on the macsec device is done after the macsec netdev creation stage i.e.:
Ip link add link eni1np1 type macsec port 4
Then 
ip macsec offload $MACSEC_IF mac
I think this path skips xfrm core rejection

Further check it shows that xfrm_api_check fails in both configuration flavors,
in first method because of register_netdevice call the second method because of
netdev_update_features call, however, using the second method (that "works") masks
this error so user space is not aware of it, hence why the second method works.

[PATCH net v2 2/5] macsec: delete new rxsc when offload fails

[Sabrina Dubroca]

Currently we get an inconsistent state:
 - netlink returns the error to userspace
 - the RXSC is installed but not offloaded

Then the device could get confused when we try to add an RXSA, because
the RXSC isn't supposed to exist.

[PATCH net v2 3/5] macsec: fix secy->n_rx_sc accounting

[Sabrina Dubroca]

secy->n_rx_sc is supposed to be the number of _active_ rxsc's within a
secy. This is then used by macsec_send_sci to help decide if we should
add the SCI to the header or not.

This logic is currently broken when we create a new RXSC and turn it
off at creation, as create_rx_sc always sets ->active to true (and
immediately uses that to increment n_rx_sc), and only later
macsec_add_rxsc sets rx_sc->active.

[PATCH net v2 4/5] macsec: fix detection of RXSCs when toggling offloading

[Sabrina Dubroca]

macsec_is_configured incorrectly uses secy->n_rx_sc to check if some
RXSCs exist. secy->n_rx_sc only counts the number of active RXSCs, but
there can also be inactive SCs as well, which may be stored in the
driver (in case we're disabling offloading), or would have to be
pushed to the device (in case we're trying to enable offloading).

As long as RXSCs active on creation and never turned off, the issue is
not visible.

[PATCH net v2 5/5] macsec: clear encryption keys from the stack after setting up offload

[Sabrina Dubroca]

macsec_add_rxsa and macsec_add_txsa copy the key to an on-stack
offloading context to pass it to the drivers, but leaves it there when
it's done. Clear it with memzero_explicit as soon as it's not needed
anymore.
