Subject: [PATCH net 9/9] selftests: tls: cover splice after a failed decrypt
Date: Sun, 26 Jul 2026 20:33:37 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260726-tls-follow-on-v1-9-99bf4cc1c729@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260726-tls-follow-on-v1-0-99bf4cc1c729@kernel.org>

Nothing in this file splices a socket whose last decrypt failed, so
the check that fails tls_sw_splice_read() on a broken connection can
be removed without a test noticing. Such a splice hands the
application plaintext that recvmsg() and read_sock() already refuse
to return.

Extend the bad_auth pattern: corrupt an authenticated record, confirm
recvmsg() reports EBADMSG, then splice the same socket and require
EBADMSG again. A synchronous decrypt fails again on the still-queued
record, so only an asynchronous decrypt, which needs TLS 1.2 and an
AEAD advertising CRYPTO_ALG_ASYNC, reaches EBADMSG solely through the
recorded-failure check.

bad_auth builds the same corrupted record, so its construction moves
into a helper the two tests share.
