[PATCH v2] tpm: tpm2-space: Resize session and context buffers dynamically

[Jarkko Sakkinen]

Re-allocate context and session buffers when needed. Scale them in page
increments so that the reallocation is only seldomly required, and thus
causes minimal stress to the system. Add a static maximum limit of four
pages for buffer sizes.

You don't want to try a fixes tag? None of the previous versions of this 
code will work with newer versions of the TPM 2 then...

It's not a regression.

Ok, so distros will have to backport it.

Would it be worthwhile to still output something here since it is changing
the value of rc returned from tpm_transmit_cmd()? Wondering if it would
be useful for debugging to know what the returned error was. Other than
that question looks good to me pending what is decided on using PAGE_SIZE.

You have to allocate the max size the in tpm_chip_alloc (tpm-chip.c):

    chip->work_space.context_buf = kzalloc(TPM2_SPACE_MAX_BUFFER_SIZE, 
GFP_KERNEL);

Now that you mentioned PPC64 in some other email that would make this a
regression since x86 provides less space for keys than PPC64.

I studied PPC64 a bit and it actually allows max 256 kB page size, which
is too much for us, given that there is no accounting implemented for
TPM spaces (so far, should be done eventually).

So to summarize: 0 the idea would decrease the limit on PPC64 and
increase it on ther arch's.  `

Dynamic scaling is over to top for fixing the issue, which means that I
will just define static size of 16 kB for the buffer. We can reconsider
it if we hit the roof again.

I'll submit a new version that will just allocate a static buffer of 16
kB. Dynamic scaling is saved for future.

That is not true. They should allocated as 4 kB in the dynamic scaling
scheme. The idea is to use krealloc() to increase the buffer size.

16kb is plenty of space for years to come. Maybe just enlarge the buffer 
for the regression and then do dynamic allocation as the final solution 
for the tip. I can try to test compile it on one or two long term stable 
kernels. Hopefully it applies cleanly. Simple test just in case you had 
a setup with a VM and libtpms master:

# echo hi | clevis encrypt tpm2 '{"key":"rsa"}' | clevis decrypt
hi

This only works once patched, gets stuck in the decrypt step otherwise.

3*4096 bytes is based on absolutely nothing.

The chosen page size is based on the PPC64 default page size.
