Subject: [PATCH v6 07/43] fscrypt: expose fscrypt_nokey_name
Date: Fri, 6 Feb 2026 19:22:39 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260206182336.1397715-8-neelx@suse.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260206182336.1397715-1-neelx@suse.com>
From: Omar Sandoval <osandov@osandov.com>
btrfs stores its data structures, including filenames in directories, in
its own buffer implementation, struct extent_buffer, composed of
several non-contiguous pages. We could copy filenames into a
temporary buffer and use fscrypt_match_name() against that buffer, such
extensive memcpying would be expensive. Instead, exposing
fscrypt_nokey_name as in this change allows btrfs to recapitulate
fscrypt_match_name() using methods on struct extent_buffer instead of
dealing with a raw byte array.

- * struct fscrypt_nokey_name - identifier for directory entry when key is absent
- *
- * When userspace lists an encrypted directory without access to the key, the
- * filesystem must present a unique "no-key name" for each filename that allows
- * it to find the directory entry again if requested. Naively, that would just
- * mean using the ciphertext filenames. However, since the ciphertext filenames
- * can contain illegal characters ('\0' and '/'), they must be encoded in some
- * way. We use base64url. But that can cause names to exceed NAME_MAX (255
- * bytes), so we also need to use a strong hash to abbreviate long names.
- *
- * The filesystem may also need another kind of hash, the "dirhash", to quickly
- * find the directory entry. Since filesystems normally compute the dirhash
- * over the on-disk filename (i.e. the ciphertext), it's not computable from
- * no-key names that abbreviate the ciphertext using the strong hash to fit in
- * NAME_MAX. It's also not computable if it's a keyed hash taken over the
- * plaintext (but it may still be available in the on-disk directory entry);
- * casefolded directories use this type of dirhash. At least in these cases,
- * each no-key name must include the name's dirhash too.
- *
- * To meet all these requirements, we base64url-encode the following
- * variable-length structure. It contains the dirhash, or 0's if the filesystem
- * didn't provide one; up to 149 bytes of the ciphertext name; and for
- * ciphertexts longer than 149 bytes, also the SHA-256 of the remaining bytes.
- *
- * This ensures that each no-key name contains everything needed to find the
- * directory entry again, contains only legal characters, doesn't exceed
- * NAME_MAX, is unambiguous unless there's a SHA-256 collision, and that we only
- * take the performance hit of SHA-256 on very long filenames (which are rare).
