Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] nvme: fixup HKDF-Expand-Label implementation
Date: Thu, 21 Aug 2025 13:48:14 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250821204816.2091293-1-cleech@redhat.com> (raw)
As per RFC 8446 (TLS 1.3) the HKDF-Expand-Label function is using vectors
for the 'label' and 'context' field, but defines these vectors as a string
prefixed with the string length (in binary). The implementation in nvme
is missing the length prefix which was causing interoperability issues
with spec-conformant implementations.
This patchset adds a function 'hkdf_expand_label()' to correctly implement
the HKDF-Expand-Label functionality and modifies the nvme driver to utilize
this function instead of the open-coded implementation.
As usual, comments and reviews are welcome.
Changes from v1:
- Moved hkdf_expand_label() from crypto/hkdf.c to nvme/common/auth.c.
It's not really an RFC 5869 HKDF function, it's defined for TLS but
currently only used by nvme in-kernel.
- Fixed kdoc label_len -> labellen
- Replaced "static const char []" with "const char *", it's just
clearer and generates the same code with a string literal assignment.
(I've left the crypto emails on this version, mostly to make it known
that hkdf_expand_label() has been moved as Eric asked.)

nvme-auth: add hkdf_expand_label()
nvme-auth: use hkdf_expand_label()
