[dm-crypt] cryptsetup problem with memory allocation

[dm-crypt] cryptsetup problem with memory allocation

[Belisko Marek]

Hi,

I'm trying to use cryptsetup on beaglebone to encrypt some data.
cryptsetup version is 1.6.2. When running luksFormat (with verbose
option) I get following:

# Allocating crypt device /dev/loop0 context.
# Trying to open and read device /dev/loop0.
# Initialising device-mapper backend library.
# Timeout set to 0 miliseconds.
# Iteration time set to 1000 miliseconds.

I track it down that malloc fails (ENONMEM) in libdevmapper and then
_dm_check_versions() fails when creating dm task (dmt =
dm_task_create(DM_DEVICE_LIST_VERSIONS). There is enough of free
memory in this case:

             total         used         free       shared      buffers
Mem:        247396        68656       178740            0            0

Any idea why allocation runs out of memory and due to that cryptsetup fails?

Thanks in advance.

BR,

marek

you can answer this question by posting the output of the following command:

lsmod | grep dm_mod

your post should have contained the answer since the question was asked
multiple times
in those logs.

I forgot to mention that I checked this before and output is:
lsmod | grep dm_mod
dm_mod                 61572  0

As I describe in first email problem comes when trying to access devmapper.

also when run luksFormat first time I can see this message:
[   93.644868] device-mapper: ioctl: 4.24.0-ioctl (2013-01-15)
initialised: dm-devel@redhat.com
so I think module is loaded and running.

Hi,

please can you try new versions of libdevampper and cryptsetup?

This is error from libdevmapper, I have no idea why this happens
on ARM... (Adding cc to Peter - any idea in dm camp? :-)

Are there any special patches in your kernel for DM subsystem?
(Can you try newer kernel also?)

After updating to the most recent version you are able to use,
run it under strace and let us see the relevant output (at least the
failing system call itself, what leads up to it, including all early
memory-related system calls and DM ioctls) and any environment variables
set that could modify behaviour.

Be careful not to expose any confidential data or passwords.

when update to latest cryptsetup (1.64) I can see different error as with 1.62:
ioctl(6, DM_VERSION, 0x1e340)     = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)
So it seems that gcrypt probably drop privileges (as running on
embedded system I'm root)?

Just guess, but do you have gcrypt compiled with Posix capabilities?

If so, it cannot work. See this comment in cryptsetup gcrypt wrapper
(you can workaround it by uncommenting this #if and rebuild cryptsetup)

lib/crypto_backend/crypto_gcrypt.c:

/* FIXME: If gcrypt compiled to support POSIX 1003.1e capabilities,
 * it drops all privileges during secure memory initialisation.
 * For now, the only workaround is to disable secure memory in gcrypt.
 * cryptsetup always need at least cap_sys_admin privilege for dm-ioctl
 * and it locks its memory space anyway.

Also, check if libc is up-to-date.  Is it glibc or an alternative?

I test 1.64 cryptsetup  + lvm2 (02.107) and it also fails but on
different place (don't have log by hand now).
I did test also with kernel 3.15 and cryptsetup 1.64 and it works fine.

We have mainline 3.9 kernel on top some patches but not touching
