Remove support for the "Crypto usage statistics" feature
(CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS). This feature does not appear to have ever been
used, and it is harmful because it significantly reduces performance and
is a large maintenance burden.
Covering each of these points in detail:
1. Feature is not being used
Since these generic crypto statistics are only readable using netlink,
it's fairly straightforward to look for programs that use them. I'm
unable to find any evidence that any such programs exist. For example,
Debian Code Search returns no hits except the kernel header and kernel
code itself and translations of the kernel header:
https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=CRYPTOCFGA_STAT&literal=1&perpkg=1
The patch series that added this feature in 2018
(https://lore.kernel.org/linux-crypto/1537351855-16618-1-git-send-email-clabbe@baylibre.com/)
said "The goal is to have an ifconfig for crypto device." This doesn't
appear to have happened.
It's not clear that there is real demand for crypto statistics. Just
because the kernel provides other types of statistics such as I/O and
networking statistics and some people find those useful does not mean
that crypto statistics are useful too.
Further evidence that programs are not using CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS is that
it was able to be disabled in RHEL and Fedora as a bug fix
(https://gitlab.com/redhat/centos-stream/src/kernel/centos-stream-9/-/merge_requests/2947).
Even further evidence comes from the fact that there are and have been
bugs in how the stats work, but they were never reported. For example,
before Linux v6.7 hash stats were double-counted in most cases.
There has also never been any documentation for this feature, so it
might be hard to use even if someone wanted to.
2. CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS significantly reduces performance
Enabling CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS significantly reduces the performance of
the crypto API, even if no program ever retrieves the statistics. This
primarily affects systems with large number of CPUs. For example,
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/2039576 reported
that Lustre client encryption performance improved from 21.7GB/s to
48.2GB/s by disabling CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS.
It can be argued that this means that CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS should be
optimized with per-cpu counters similar to many of the networking
counters. But no one has done this in 5+ years. This is consistent
with the fact that the feature appears to be unused, so there seems to
be little interest in improving it as opposed to just disabling it.
It can be argued that because CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS is off by default,
performance doesn't matter. But Linux distros tend to error on the side
of enabling options. The option is enabled in Ubuntu and Arch Linux,
and until recently was enabled in RHEL and Fedora (see above). So, even
just having the option available is harmful to users.
3. CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS is a large maintenance burden
There are over 1000 lines of code associated with CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS,
spread among 32 files. It significantly complicates much of the
implementation of the crypto API. After the initial submission, many
fixes and refactorings have consumed effort of multiple people to keep
this feature "working". We should be spending this effort elsewhere.

Unlike algif_aead which is always issued in one go (thus limiting
the maximum size of the request), algif_skcipher has always allowed
unlimited input data by cutting them up as necessary and feeding
the fragments to the underlying algorithm one at a time.
However, because of deficiencies in the API, this has been broken
for most stream ciphers such as arc4 or chacha. This is because
they have an internal state in addition to the IV that must be
preserved in order to continue processing.
Fix this by using the new skcipher state API.

This patch adds code to the skcipher/lskcipher API to make use
of the internal state if present. In particular, the skcipher
lskcipher wrapper will allocate a buffer for the IV/state and
feed that to the underlying lskcipher algorithm.
Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
Unlike chaining modes such as CBC, stream ciphers other than CTR
usually hold an internal state that must be preserved if the
operation is to be done piecemeal. This has not been represented
in the API, resulting in the inability to split up stream cipher
operations.
This patch adds the basic representation of an internal state to
skcipher and lskcipher. In the interest of backwards compatibility,
the default has been set such that existing users are assumed to
be operating in one go as opposed to piecemeal.
With the new API, each lskcipher/skcipher algorithm has a new
attribute called statesize. For skcipher, this is the size of
the buffer that can be exported or imported similar to ahash.
For lskcipher, instead of providing a buffer of ivsize, the user
now has to provide a buffer of ivsize + statesize.
Each skcipher operation is assumed to be final as they are now,
but this may be overridden with a request flag. When the override
occurs, the user may then export the partial state and reimport
it later.
For lskcipher operations this is reversed. All operations are
not final and the state will be exported unless the FINAL bit is
set. However, the CONT bit still has to be set for the state
to be used.

Having multiple in-flight AIO requests results in unpredictable

The "ahash" API provides access to both CPU-based and hardware offload-
based implementations of hash algorithms. Typically the former are
implemented as "shash" algorithms under the hood, while the latter are
implemented as "ahash" algorithms. The "ahash" API provides access to
both. Various kernel subsystems use the ahash API because they want to
support hashing hardware offload without using a separate API for it.
Yet, the common case is that a crypto accelerator is not actually being
used, and ahash is just wrapping a CPU-based shash algorithm.
This patch optimizes the ahash API for that common case by eliminating
the extra indirect call for each ahash operation on top of shash.
It also fixes the double-counting of crypto stats in this scenario
(though CONFIG_CRYPTO_STATS should *not* be enabled by anyone interested
in performance anyway...), and it eliminates redundant checking of
CRYPTO_TFM_NEED_KEY. As a bonus, it also shrinks struct crypto_ahash.

Currently, the ahash API checks the alignment of all key and result
buffers against the algorithm's declared alignmask, and for any
unaligned buffers it falls back to manually aligned temporary buffers.
This is virtually useless, however. First, since it does not apply to
the message, its effect is much more limited than e.g. is the case for
the alignmask for "skcipher". Second, the key and result buffers are
given as virtual addresses and cannot (in general) be DMA'ed into, so
drivers end up having to copy to/from them in software anyway. As a
result it's easy to use memcpy() or the unaligned access helpers.
The crypto_hash_walk_*() helper functions do use the alignmask to align
the message. But with one exception those are only used for shash
algorithms being exposed via the ahash API, not for native ahashes, and
aligning the message is not required in this case, especially now that
alignmask support has been removed from shash. The exception is the
n2_core driver, which doesn't set an alignmask.
In any case, no ahash algorithms actually set a nonzero alignmask
anymore. Therefore, remove support for it from ahash. The benefit is
that all the code to handle "misaligned" buffers in the ahash API goes
away, reducing the overhead of the ahash API.
This follows the same change that was made to shash.

crypto_shash_ctx_aligned() is no longer used, and it is useless now that
shash algorithms don't support nonzero alignmasks, so remove it.
Also remove crypto_tfm_ctx_aligned() which was only called by
crypto_shash_ctx_aligned(). It's unlikely to be useful again, since it
seems inappropriate to use cra_alignmask to represent alignment for the
tfm context when it already means alignment for inputs/outputs.

Most shash algorithms don't have custom ->import and ->export functions,
resulting in the memcpy() based default being used. Yet,
crypto_shash_import() and crypto_shash_export() still make an indirect
call, which is expensive. Therefore, change how the default import and
export are called to make it so that crypto_shash_import() and
crypto_shash_export() don't do an indirect call in this case.
