[PATCH] crypto: allow to assign gfp_t for __crypto_alloc_tfm

[PATCH] crypto: allow to assign gfp_t for __crypto_alloc_tfm

[Jaegeuk Kim]

This patch adds a parameter, gfp_t, for __crypto_alloc_tfm.
Now EXT4 and F2FS use the crypto engine to encrypt a page when writing it to the
disk.
That happens during ->writepage and it needs to allocate memory with
GFP_NOFS.

Otherwise, in the f2fs case, kernel reports such the following warning.

[PATCH] crypto: allow to assign gfp_t for __crypto_alloc_tfm

[Jaegeuk Kim]

This patch adds a parameter, gfp_t, for __crypto_alloc_tfm.
Now EXT4 and F2FS use the crypto engine to encrypt a page when writing it to the
disk.
That happens during ->writepage and it needs to allocate memory with
GFP_NOFS.

Otherwise, in the f2fs case, kernel reports such the following warning.

Normally crypto structures should only be allocated on control
paths where sleeping or swapping is not an issue.  Why is ext4
doing crypto allocations on the data path?

Recently, Ted introduced per-file encryption feature as follows.

https://lwn.net/Articles/639427/

The call path in fs/ext4/crypto.c is:
 - writepage
  - ext4_encrypt
   - ext4_get_crypto_ctx
    - crypto_alloc_ablkcipher

AFAIK, this way can achieve to reduce memory footprint gracefully.
Just before submitting bios, fs allocates the required memory, and then end_io
will free them in pair.

Thanks,

Re: [f2fs-dev] [PATCH v2] crypto: allow to assign gfp_t for __crypto_alloc_tfm

[Jaegeuk Kim]

 Change log from v1:
  - fix missing change

-- >8 --

This patch adds a parameter, gfp_t, for __crypto_alloc_tfm.
Now EXT4 and F2FS use the crypto engine to encrypt a page when writing it to the
disk.
That happens during ->writepage and it needs to allocate memory with
GFP_NOFS.

Otherwise, in the f2fs case, kernel reports such the following warning.

[f2fs-dev] [PATCH v2] crypto: allow to assign gfp_t for __crypto_alloc_tfm

[Jaegeuk Kim]

 Change log from v1:
  - fix missing change

-- >8 --

This patch adds a parameter, gfp_t, for __crypto_alloc_tfm.
Now EXT4 and F2FS use the crypto engine to encrypt a page when writing it to the
disk.
That happens during ->writepage and it needs to allocate memory with
GFP_NOFS.

Otherwise, in the f2fs case, kernel reports such the following warning.

     - ext4_get_crypto_ctx
       - crypto_alloc_ablkcipher
     - ext4_page_crypto
       - crypto_ablkcipher_setkey

No that's where you set the key, not where you generate the key.

The key generation is done by ext4_generate_encryption_key in
fs/ext4/crypto_key.c.
And, ext4_file_mmap and ext4_file_open trigger it.

Well that's where you should be doing crypto_alloc_ablkcipher
and crypto_ablkcipher_setkey.

The whole point of a crypto tfm is to represent a key so any time
you get one you should create a crypto tfm.  Carrying around a raw
key is just wrong.

So, IMHO, it can consume memory too much, since tfm should be allocated for
every inodes and be alive until inode eviction.
Apart from giving GFP_NOFS, do you mean that it is a wrong approach?

Are you sure this is a real problem? Have you actually looked at
how much memory it consumes?

Allocating the tfm and setting a key on the data path is not
acceptable.

I didn't measure the memory footprint. I can't tell it is a real problem,
but at least, I hope it can reduce somewhat memory consumption.
Because, already per-inode crypto structure consumes at least 84 bytes.

Ok, I'll check it again and investigate in more detail how not to break
this rule.

There can be multiple reads going on in parallel, so we're currently
creating tfm's as necessary.  In fact one of the things that we've
talked about doing is since there are some ARM cores where their
"hardware acceleration" is slower than optimized software (sigh), and
there are some Android applications (such as Facebook) that read
*vast* quantities of data from flash on startup before painting a
single pixel, that we might want to consider in some cases,
parallelizing the decryption across multiple ARM cores.  Figuring out
when to do this, both in terms of the workload, how many cores to use
to balance off against power utilization, how much (if ever) to use
the hardware "accelerator", and just plain lack of time caused us not
to go down that particular path.

We do have a tfm pointer hanging off the inode (currently only used
for directories and file name encryption, where i_mutex is serializing
us anyway), and in theory we could use that for the data path as well.
We'd have to serialize access to it, which could be performance
problem, and if the tfm is significantly larger than the raw key, we'd
need to know when we should nuke the tfm.

After all, we don't want to have users waiting for their Facebook app
to launch.  :-)

A single tfm is fully-reentrant (as long as you don't change the
key).  So multiple reads/writes on a single file can all use one
tfm with no locking at all.

There should be a single tfm per key.  As your code appears to use
one key per inode, that translates to one tfm per inode.

We already have some support for such parallelisation in the form of
pcrypt.  It has been used on IPsec and I believe dmcrypt.

As long as an inode only has one key, you don't need any
serialisation.

Cool, we didn't realize this was the case.  Excellent, this makes life

The current pcrypt version is used just for IPsec because it supports
only AEAD type algorithms and does not support request backlog. But
I have patches to support ablkcipher algorithms and request backlog.
I could provide them if there is interest in it.

I don't know the crypto layer well enough, and I certainly don't know
how to deal with things like ARM CPU's with "big-little" architectures
to understand what we might need to do to power optimize things for
mobile handsets.  But if someone has time to look at this, that would
be great.

I'd be interested in getting involved: I'm fairly intimate with the
crypto layer and the ARM/arm64 architectures, since I wrote a big
chunk of the ARM/arm64 CPU based crypto drivers.

However, it's quite a can of worms you're opening here. Speed is
easily quantified, and it may even be feasible to introduce some kind
of boottime benchmark to select the fastest implementation available
(like already exists for xor and raid6, for instance).
@Herbert: was something like this ever proposed? And would you
consider merging it if it were implemented adequately?

Power efficiency is *much* harder, since you're not only dealing with
big.LITTLE, but also NEON versus ALU (i.e., SIMD math versus integer
math) and CPU versus hw accelerator based crypto. (We have the NEON
based bit sliced AES as an example: we know it does fundamentally more
work by calculating values that the table based AES implementation
reads from a lookup table, so while it is a lot faster on most NEON
implementations, it is most likely not as power efficient) Even if it
were possible to quantify the power efficiency in the first place,
whether the most power efficient implementation should be preferred
over the fastest one is a policy decision which does not really belong
inside the kernel.

Are there any background materials or other references you can share
that shed a bit more light on this?

Up until now static priorities have been sufficient in selecting
the best implementation.  However, if you can show us a case where
a given implementation is slower on one host but faster on another
then sure we can add a run-time test and priority adjustment for it.
