I took this work over from Gaurav Kashyap and integrated Eric's series
into it for an easier discussion on the actual API to be used for
wrapped keys as well as if and how to enable users to indicate whether
wrapped keys should be used at all.

I know Dmitry's opinion on that and expect this to be more of an RFC
rather than a real patch series. That being said, what is here, works
fine on sm8650.

Hardware-wrapped keys are encrypted keys that can only be unwrapped
(decrypted) and used by hardware - either by the inline encryption
hardware itself, or by a dedicated hardware block that can directly
provision keys to the inline encryption hardware. For more details,
please see patches 1-3 in this series which extend the inline encryption
docs with more information.

This series adds support for wrapped keys to the block layer, fscrypt
and then build upwards from there by implementing relevant callbacks in
QCom SCM driver, then the ICE driver and finally in UFS core and QCom
layer.

Tested on sm8650-qrd.

How to test:

Use the wip-wrapped-keys branch from https://github.com/ebiggers/fscryptctl
to build a custom fscryptctl that supports generating wrapped keys.

Enable the following config options:
CONFIG_BLK_INLINE_ENCRYPTION=y
CONFIG_QCOM_INLINE_CRYPTO_ENGINE=m
CONFIG_FS_ENCRYPTION_INLINE_CRYPT=y
CONFIG_SCSI_UFS_CRYPTO=y

$ mkfs.ext4 -F -O encrypt,stable_inodes /dev/disk/by-partlabel/userdata
$ mount /dev/disk/by-partlabel/userdata -o inlinecrypt /mnt
$ fscryptctl generate_hw_wrapped_key /dev/disk/by-partlabel/userdata > /mnt/key.longterm
$ fscryptctl prepare_hw_wrapped_key /dev/disk/by-partlabel/userdata < /mnt/key.longterm > /tmp/key.ephemeral
$ KEYID=$(fscryptctl add_key --hw-wrapped-key < /tmp/key.ephemeral /mnt)
$ rm -rf /mnt/dir
$ mkdir /mnt/dir
$ fscryptctl set_policy --hw-wrapped-key --iv-ino-lblk-64 "$KEYID" /mnt/dir
$ dmesg > /mnt/dir/test.txt
$ sync

Reboot the board

$ mount /dev/disk/by-partlabel/userdata -o inlinecrypt /mnt
$ ls /mnt/dir
$ fscryptctl prepare_hw_wrapped_key /dev/disk/by-partlabel/userdata < /mnt/key.longterm > /tmp/key.ephemeral
$ KEYID=$(fscryptctl add_key --hw-wrapped-key < /tmp/key.ephemeral /mnt)
$ fscryptctl set_policy --hw-wrapped-key --iv-ino-lblk-64 "$KEYID" /mnt/dir
$ cat /mnt/dir/test.txt # File should now be decrypted

Changes since v5:
- add the wrapped key support from Eric Biggers to the series
- remove the new DT property from the series and instead query the
  at run-time rustZone to find out if wrapped keys are supported
- make the wrapped key support into a UFS capability, not a quirk
- improve kerneldocs
- improve and rework coding style in most patches
- improve and reformat commit messages
- simplify the offset calculation for CRYPTOCFG
- split out the DTS changes into a separate series

That's a good question. If use_hwkm is set, ICE gets programmed to use
hwkm (see qcom_ice_hwkm_init() call above). I'm not sure if it is
expected to work properly if after such a call we pass raw key.

I dearly hope that all firmwares that advertise this call, also
advertise the other necessary ones

Ack.
I'll work with Bartosz to look into moving to HWKM mode only during the first key program request

That would mean the driver would have to initially advertise support for both
HW-wrapped keys and raw keys, and then it would revoke the support for one of
them later (due to the other one being used).  However, runtime revocation of
crypto capabilities is not supported by the blk-crypto framework
(Documentation/block/inline-encryption.rst), and there is no clear path to
adding such support.  Upper layers may have already checked the crypto
capabilities and decided to use them.  It's too late to find out that the
support was revoked in the middle of an I/O request.  Upper layer code
(blk-crypto, fscrypt, etc.) is not prepared for this.  And even if it was, the
best it could do is cleanly fail the I/O, which is too late as e.g. it may
happen during background writeback and cause user data to be thrown away.

So, the choice of support for HW-wrapped vs. raw will need to be made ahead of
time, rather than being implicitly set by the first use.  That is most easily
done using a module parameter like qcom_ice.hw_wrapped_keys=1.  Yes, it's a bit
inconvenient, but there's no realistic way around this currently.

Can we check crypto capabilities when the user sets the key?

Compare this to the actual HSM used to secure communication or
storage. It has certain capabilities, which can be enumerated, etc.
But then at the time the user sets the key it is perfectly normal to
return an error because HSM is out of resources. It might even have
spare key slots, but it might be not enough to be able to program the
required key (as a really crazy example, consider the HSM having at
this time a single spare DES key slot, while the user wants to program
3DES key).

This doesn't work for Android usecase. The user isn't able to setup modparams.

I think you mean when a key is programmed into a keyslot?  That happens during
I/O, which is too late as I've explained above.

That isn't how the kernel handles inline encryption keyslots.  They are only
programmed as needed for I/O.  If they are all in-use by pending I/O requests,
then the kernel waits for an I/O request to finish and reprograms the keyslot it
was using.  There is never an error reported due to lack of keyslots.

If I/O requests could randomly fail at any time when using inline encryption,
then no one would use inline encryption because it would not be reliable.

It does work for Android.  The encryption setting that Android uses is
configured in the build of Android for the device (by the OEM, or by whoever
made the build in the case of a custom build).  Refer to
https://source.android.com/docs/security/features/encryption/file-based#enabling-file-based-encryption

Anyone who can change that can also change the kernel command line.

Considering the arguments, I'll vote in favor of a module parameter, since using
hw_wrapped_keys is a system design choice, it's fine to enable it via a module
parameter. It will complicate CI, but in the actual case we just can't disable
RAW keys support just because the firmware can potentially use wrapper keys.

Does that mean that the I/O can be outstanding for the very long period
of time? Or that if the ICE hardware has just a single keyslot, but
there are two concurrent I/O processes using two different keys, the
framework will be constantly swapping the keys programmed to the HW?

I think it might be prefereable for the drivers and the framework to
support "preprogramming" of the keys, when the key is programmed to the
hardware when it is set by the user.

Another option might be to let the drivers validate the keys being set
by userspace. This way in our case the driver might report that it
supports both raw and wrapped keys, but start rejecting the keys once
it gets notified that the user has programmed other kind of keys. This
way key setup can fail, but the actual I/O can not. WDYT?

Yes, I agree here.

Ok. I think if the 'validation' or 'notify' proposal is declined, I'll
have to agree to the modparam.

Yes for both.  Of course, system designers are supposed to put in enough
keyslots for this to not be much of a problem.

So, the "wait for a keyslot" logic in the block layer is necessary in general so
that applications don't unnecessarily get I/O errors.  But in a properly tuned
system this logic should be rarely executed.

And in cases where the keyslots really are a bottleneck, users can of course
just use software encryption instead.

Note that the number of keyslots is reported in sysfs.

This doesn't sound particularly useful.  If there are always enough keyslots,
then keyslots never get evicted and there is no advantage to this.  If there are
*not* always enough keyslots, then it's sometimes necessary to evict keyslots,
so it would not be desirable to have them permanently reserved.

It could make sense to have some sort of hints mechanism, where frequently-used
keys can be marked as high-priority to keep programmed in a keyslot.  I don't
see much of a need for this though, given that the eviction policy is already
LRU, so it already prefers to keep frequently-used keys in a keyslot.

Well, that has the same effect as the crypto capabilities check which is already
done.  The problem is that your proposal effectively revokes a capability, and
that is racy.

I'm still trying to propose solutions for the hwkm-or-raw keys problem,
trying to find a way to return an error early enough. So it's not about
the hints for frequently-used keys, but for returning an error if the
user tries to program key type which became unusupported after a
previous call.
