Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 6.16-5.15] crypto: hisilicon/hpre - fix dma unmap sequence
Date: Tue, 5 Aug 2025 09:08:45 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250805130945.471732-10-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250805130945.471732-1-sashal@kernel.org>
From: Zhiqi Song <songzhiqi1@huawei.com>
[ Upstream commit 982fd1a74de63c388c060e4fa6f7fbd088d6d02e ]
Perform DMA unmapping operations before processing data.
Otherwise, there may be unsynchronized data accessed by
the CPU when the SWIOTLB is enabled.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:
**Backport Status: YES**
This commit should be backported to stable kernel trees. Here's my
extensive analysis:
## Critical Bug Fix Nature
This commit fixes a critical **data coherency bug** that occurs when
SWIOTLB (Software I/O Translation Lookaside Buffer) is enabled. The bug
involves accessing DMA-mapped memory after processing data but before
unmapping it, which violates DMA API usage rules and can lead to:
1. **Data corruption** - CPU may access stale/unsynchronized data
2. **Security implications** - Potential exposure of sensitive
cryptographic material
3. **System instability** - Especially on systems with IOMMU or SWIOTLB
enabled
## Specific Code Analysis
### In `hpre_ecdh_cb()` (lines 1476-1502):
**Before the fix:**
```c
p = sg_virt(areq->dst); // Line 1494 - Accessing DMA-mapped memory
memmove(p, p + ctx->key_sz - curve_sz, curve_sz); // Line 1495 -
Processing data
memmove(p + curve_sz, p + areq->dst_len - curve_sz, curve_sz); // Line
1496
hpre_ecdh_hw_data_clr_all(ctx, req, areq->dst, areq->src); // Line 1498
- DMA unmap happens here
```
**After the fix:**
```c
/* Do unmap before data processing */
hpre_ecdh_hw_data_clr_all(ctx, req, areq->dst, areq->src); // DMA unmap
first
p = sg_virt(areq->dst); // Now safe to access memory
memmove(p, p + ctx->key_sz - curve_sz, curve_sz);
memmove(p + curve_sz, p + areq->dst_len - curve_sz, curve_sz);
```
### In `hpre_curve25519_cb()` (lines 1795-1820):
Similar issue where `hpre_key_to_big_end(sg_virt(areq->dst),
CURVE25519_KEY_SIZE)` was called before DMA unmapping.
## Why This Qualifies for Stable
1. **Clear Bug Fix**: This fixes a definitive bug in DMA API usage that
violates kernel DMA coherency rules
2. **Small and Contained**: The fix is minimal - just reordering
function calls in two callback functions
3. **No New Features**: Pure bug fix with no feature additions
4. **Low Risk**: Simple reordering of operations with no algorithmic
changes
5. **Affects Real Users**: Systems with SWIOTLB enabled (common in
virtualized environments and systems with >4GB RAM on 32-bit
architectures)
6. **Subsystem Impact**: Confined to HiSilicon HPRE crypto driver
callbacks
## Technical Severity
The bug is particularly severe because:
- SWIOTLB bounce buffers may contain stale data when accessed before DMA
unmapping
- This affects cryptographic operations (ECDH and Curve25519), where
data integrity is critical
- The issue manifests silently as data corruption rather than crashes,
making it hard to detect
The fix follows proper DMA API usage patterns by ensuring DMA unmapping
(which includes cache synchronization) occurs before CPU accesses the
memory, preventing any coherency issues.
