With CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y, GCC may decide not to inline
__cvdso_clock_getres_common(). This introduces spurious internal
function calls in the vDSO fastpath.
Furthermore, with automatic stack variable initialization
(CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_ZERO or CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_PATTERN) GCC can emit
a call to memset() which is not valid in the vDSO.
Mark __cvdso_clock_getres_common() as __always_inline to avoid both issues.
Paradoxically the inlining even reduces the size of the code:
$ ./scripts/bloat-o-meter arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/vgettimeofday-32.o.before arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/vgettimeofday-32.o.after
add/remove: 0/1 grow/shrink: 1/1 up/down: 52/-148 (-96)

__c_kernel_clock_getres_time64 92 144 +52
__c_kernel_clock_getres 136 132 -4
__cvdso_clock_getres_common 144 - -144
Total: Before=2788, After=2692, chg -3.44%
With CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE=y the functions are always inlined
and therefore the behaviour stays the same.

The softlockup_panic sysctl is currently a binary option: panic
immediately or never panic on soft lockups.
Panicking on any soft lockup, regardless of duration, can be overly
aggressive for brief stalls that may be caused by legitimate operations.
Conversely, never panicking may allow severe system hangs to persist
undetected.
Extend softlockup_panic to accept an integer threshold, allowing the
kernel to panic only when the normalized lockup duration exceeds N
watchdog threshold periods. This provides finer-grained control to
distinguish between transient delays and persistent system failures.
The accepted values are:
- 0: Don't panic (unchanged)
- 1: Panic when duration >= 1 * threshold (20s default, original behavior)
- N > 1: Panic when duration >= N * threshold (e.g., 2 = 40s, 3 = 60s.)
The original behavior is preserved for values 0 and 1, maintaining full
backward compatibility while allowing systems to tolerate brief lockups
while still catching severe, persistent hangs.

Optimize the AES library with x86 AES-NI instructions.
The relevant existing assembly functions, aesni_set_key(), aesni_enc(),
and aesni_dec(), are a bit difficult to extract into the library:
- They're coupled to the code for the AES modes.
- They operate on struct crypto_aes_ctx. The AES library now uses
different structs.
- They assume the key is 16-byte aligned. The AES library only
*prefers* 16-byte alignment; it doesn't require it.
Moreover, they're not all that great in the first place:
- They use unrolled loops, which isn't a great choice on x86.
- They use the 'aeskeygenassist' instruction, which is unnecessary, is
slow on Intel CPUs, and forces the loop to be unrolled.
- They have special code for AES-192 key expansion, despite that being
kind of useless. AES-128 and AES-256 are the ones used in practice.
These are small functions anyway.
Therefore, I opted to just write replacements of these functions for the
library. They address all the above issues.

Another challenge with this code is that the POWER8 assembly code uses a

from OpenSSL and is also targeted to POWER8 (rather than POWER9 which
has better data movement and byteswap instructions), that is not easily
changed. For now I've just kept the custom format. To maintain full
correctness, this requires executing some slow fallback code in the case
where the usability of VSX changes between key expansion and use. This
should be tolerable, as this case shouldn't happen in practice.

The kernel's AES library currently has the following issues:
- It doesn't take advantage of the architecture-optimized AES code,
including the implementations using AES instructions.
- It's much slower than even the other software AES implementations: 2-4
times slower than "aes-generic", "aes-arm", and "aes-arm64".
- It requires that both the encryption and decryption round keys be
computed and cached. This is wasteful for users that need only the
forward (encryption) direction of the cipher: the key struct is 484
bytes when only 244 are actually needed. This missed optimization is
very common, as many AES modes (e.g. GCM, CFB, CTR, CMAC, and even the
tweak key in XTS) use the cipher only in the forward (encryption)
direction even when doing decryption.
- It doesn't provide the flexibility to customize the prepared key
format. The API is defined to do key expansion, and several callers
in drivers/crypto/ use it specifically to expand the key. This is an
issue when integrating the existing powerpc, s390, and sparc code,
which is necessary to provide full parity with the traditional API.
To resolve these issues, I'm proposing the following changes:
1. New structs 'aes_key' and 'aes_enckey' are introduced, with
corresponding functions aes_preparekey() and aes_prepareenckey().
Generally these structs will include the encryption+decryption round
keys and the encryption round keys, respectively. However, the exact
format will be under control of the architecture-specific AES code.
(The verb "prepare" is chosen over "expand" since key expansion isn't
necessarily done. It's also consistent with hmac*_preparekey().)
2. aes_encrypt() and aes_decrypt() will be changed to operate on the new
structs instead of struct crypto_aes_ctx.
3. aes_encrypt() and aes_decrypt() will use architecture-optimized code
when available, or else fall back to a new generic AES implementation
that unifies the existing two fragmented generic AES implementations.
The new generic AES implementation uses tables for both SubBytes and
MixColumns, making it almost as fast as "aes-generic". However,
instead of aes-generic's huge 8192-byte tables per direction, it uses
only 1024 bytes for encryption and 1280 bytes for decryption (similar
to "aes-arm"). The cost is just some extra rotations.
The new generic AES implementation also includes table prefetching,
making it have some "constant-time hardening". That's an improvement
from aes-generic which has no constant-time hardening.
It does slightly regress in constant-time hardening vs. the old
lib/crypto/aes.c which had smaller tables, and from aes-fixed-time
which disabled IRQs on top of that. But I think this is tolerable.
The real solutions for constant-time AES are AES instructions or
bit-slicing. The table-based code remains a best-effort fallback for
the increasingly-rare case where a real solution is unavailable.
4. crypto_aes_ctx and aes_expandkey() will remain for now, but only for
callers that are using them specifically for the AES key expansion
(as opposed to en/decrypting data with the AES library).
This commit begins the migration process by introducing the new structs
and functions, backed by the new generic AES implementation.
To allow callers to be incrementally converted, aes_encrypt() and
aes_decrypt() are temporarily changed into macros that use a _Generic
expression to call either the old functions (which take crypto_aes_ctx)
or the new functions (which take the new types). Once all callers have
been updated, these macros will go away, the old functions will be
removed, and the "_new" suffix will be dropped from the new functions.

Add a KUnit test suite for ML-DSA verification, including the following
for each ML-DSA parameter set (ML-DSA-44, ML-DSA-65, and ML-DSA-87):
- Positive test (valid signature), using vector imported from leancrypto
- Various negative tests:
- Wrong length for signature, message, or public key
- Out-of-range coefficients in z vector
- Invalid encoded hint vector
- Any bit flipped in signature, message, or public key
- Unit test for the internal function use_hint()
- A benchmark
ML-DSA inputs and outputs are very large. To keep the size of the tests
down, use just one valid test vector per parameter set, and generate the
negative tests at runtime by mutating the valid test vector.
I also considered importing the test vectors from Wycheproof. I've
tested that mldsa_verify() indeed passes all of Wycheproof's ML-DSA test
vectors that use an empty context string. However, importing these
permanently would add over 6 MB of source. That's too much to be a
reasonable addition to the Linux kernel tree for one algorithm. It also
wouldn't actually provide much better test coverage than this commit.
Another potential issue is that Wycheproof uses the Apache license.
Similarly, this also differs from the earlier proposal to import a long
list of test vectors from leancrypto. I retained only one valid
signature for each algorithm, and I also added (runtime-generated)
negative tests which were missing. I think this is a better tradeoff.

Add support for verifying ML-DSA signatures.
ML-DSA (Module-Lattice-Based Digital Signature Algorithm) is specified
in FIPS 204 and is the standard version of Dilithium. Unlike RSA and
elliptic-curve cryptography, ML-DSA is believed to be secure even
against adversaries in possession of a large-scale quantum computer.
Compared to the earlier patch
(https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251117145606.2155773-3-dhowells@redhat.com/)
that was based on "leancrypto", this implementation:
- Is about 700 lines of source code instead of 4800.
- Generates about 4 KB of object code instead of 28 KB.
- Uses 9-13 KB of memory to verify a signature instead of 31-84 KB.
- Is at least about the same speed, with a microbenchmark showing 3-5%
improvements on one x86_64 CPU and -1% to 1% changes on another.
When memory is a bottleneck, it's likely much faster.
- Correctly implements the RejNTTPoly step of the algorithm.
The API just consists of a single function mldsa_verify(), supporting
pure ML-DSA with any standard parameter set (ML-DSA-44, ML-DSA-65, or
ML-DSA-87) as selected by an enum. That's all that's actually needed.
The following four potential features are unneeded and aren't included.
However, any that ever become needed could fairly easily be added later,
as they only affect how the message representative mu is calculated:
- Nonempty context strings
- Incremental message hashing
- HashML-DSA
- External mu
Signing support would, of course, be a larger and more complex addition.
However, the kernel doesn't, and shouldn't, need ML-DSA signing support.
Note that mldsa_verify() allocates memory, so it can sleep and can fail
with ENOMEM. Unfortunately we don't have much choice about that, since
ML-DSA needs a lot of memory. At least callers have to check for errors
anyway, since the signature could be invalid.
Note that verification doesn't require constant-time code, and in fact
some steps are inherently variable-time. I've used constant-time
patterns in some places anyway, but technically they're not needed.

lib/crypto: tests: polyval_kunit: Increase iterations for preparekey in IRQs
In a vain attempt to consolidate the email zoo switch everything to the
kernel.org account.

On my development machine the generic, memcpy()-only implementation of
polyval_preparekey() is too fast for the IRQ workers to actually fire.
The test fails.
Increase the iterations to make the test more robust.
The test will run for a maximum of one second in any case.
[EB: This failure was already fixed by commit c31f4aa8fe ("kunit:
Enforce task execution in {soft,hard}irq contexts"). I'm still applying
this patch too, since the iteration count in this test made its running
time much shorter than the other similar ones.]

Enable context analysis for rhashtable, which was used as an initial
test as it contains a combination of RCU, mutex, and bit_spinlock usage.
Users of rhashtable now also benefit from annotations on the API, which
will now warn if the RCU read lock is not held where required.

Many patterns that involve data-racy accesses often deliberately ignore
normal synchronization rules to avoid taking a lock.
If we have a lock-guarded variable on which we do a lock-less data-racy
access, rather than having to write context_unsafe(data_race(..)),
simply make the data_race(..) macro imply context-unsafety. The
data_race() macro already denotes the intent that something subtly
unsafe is about to happen, so it should be clear enough as-is.

Add support for Clang's context analysis for ww_mutex.
The programming model for ww_mutex is subtly more complex than other
locking primitives when using ww_acquire_ctx. Encoding the respective
pre-conditions for ww_mutex lock/unlock based on ww_acquire_ctx state
using Clang's context analysis makes incorrect use of the API harder.
