Subject: [PATCH 00/21] nvme-auth: use crypto library for HMAC and hashing
Date: Sun,  1 Mar 2026 23:59:38 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260302075959.338638-1-ebiggers@kernel.org> (raw)

This series converts the implementation of NVMe in-band authentication
to use the crypto library instead of crypto_shash for HMAC and hashing.

The result is simpler, faster, and more reliable.  Notably, it
eliminates a lot of dynamic memory allocations, indirect calls, lookups
in crypto_alg_list, and other API overhead.  It also uses the library's
support for initializing HMAC contexts directly from a raw key, which is
an optimization not accessible via crypto_shash.  Finally, a lot of the
error handling code goes away, since the library functions just always
succeed and return void.

The last patch removes crypto/hkdf.c, as it's no longer needed.

This series applies to v7.0-rc1 and is targeting the nvme tree.

I've tested the TLS key derivation using the KUnit test suite added in
this series.  I don't know how to test the other parts, but it all
should behave the same as before.

Eric Biggers (21):
  nvme-auth: add NVME_AUTH_MAX_DIGEST_SIZE constant
  nvme-auth: common: constify static data
  nvme-auth: use proper argument types
  nvme-auth: common: add KUnit tests for TLS key derivation
  nvme-auth: rename nvme_auth_generate_key() to nvme_auth_parse_key()
  nvme-auth: common: explicitly verify psk_len == hash_len
  nvme-auth: common: add HMAC helper functions
  nvme-auth: common: use crypto library in nvme_auth_transform_key()
  nvme-auth: common: use crypto library in
    nvme_auth_augmented_challenge()
  nvme-auth: common: use crypto library in nvme_auth_generate_psk()
  nvme-auth: common: use crypto library in nvme_auth_generate_digest()
  nvme-auth: common: use crypto library in nvme_auth_derive_tls_psk()
  nvme-auth: host: use crypto library in
    nvme_auth_dhchap_setup_host_response()
  nvme-auth: host: use crypto library in
    nvme_auth_dhchap_setup_ctrl_response()
  nvme-auth: host: remove allocation of crypto_shash
  nvme-auth: target: remove obsolete crypto_has_shash() checks
  nvme-auth: target: use crypto library in nvmet_auth_host_hash()
  nvme-auth: target: use crypto library in nvmet_auth_ctrl_hash()
  nvme-auth: common: remove nvme_auth_digest_name()
  nvme-auth: common: remove selections of no-longer used crypto modules
  crypto: remove HKDF library
