XEX mode, known as "xor-encrypt-xor", is the simple case of the XTS
mode, known as "XEX with ciphertext stealing". When the buffers to be
encrypted/decrypted have a length divisible by the length of a standard
AES block (16), XTS is exactly like XEX.
When MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_MEMORY is defined but MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_FREE_MACRO or
MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_CALLOC_MACRO are not defined then the actual functions
used to allocate and free memory are stored in function pointers.
These pointers are exposed to the caller, and it means that the caller
and the library have to share a data section.
In TF-A, we execute in a very constrained environment, where some images
are executed from ROM and other images are executed from SRAM. The
images that are executed from ROM cannot be modified. The SRAM size
is very small and we are moving libraries to the ROM that can be shared
between the different SRAM images. These SRAM images could import all the
symbols used in mbedtls, but it would create an undesirable hard binary
dependency between the different images. For this reason, all the library
functions in ROM are accesed using a jump table whose base address is
known, allowing the images to execute with different versions of the ROM.
This commit changes the function pointers to actual functions,
so that the SRAM images only have to use the new exported symbols
(mbedtls_calloc and mbedtls_free) using the jump table. In
our scenario, mbedtls_platform_set_calloc_free is called from
mbedtls_memory_buffer_alloc_init which initializes the function pointers
to the internal buffer_alloc_calloc and buffer_alloc_free functions.
No functional changes to mbedtls_memory_buffer_alloc_init.

Motivation is similar to NO_UDBL_DIVISION.
The alternative implementation of 64-bit mult is straightforward and aims at
obvious correctness. Also, visual examination of the generate assembly show
that it's quite efficient with clang, armcc5 and arm-clang. However current
GCC generates fairly inefficient code for it.
I tried to rework the code in order to make GCC generate more efficient code.
Unfortunately the only way to do that is to get rid of 64-bit add and handle
the carry manually, but this causes other compilers to generate less efficient
code with branches, which is not acceptable from a side-channel point of view.
So let's keep the obvious code that works for most compilers and hope future
versions of GCC learn to manage registers in a sensible way in that context.
See https://bugs.launchpad.net/gcc-arm-embedded/+bug/1775263
Allowing DECRYPT with crypt_and_tag is a risk as people might fail to check
the tag correctly (or at all). So force them to use auth_decrypt() instead.

When MBEDTLS_TIMING_C was not defined in config.h, but the MemSan
memory sanitizer was activated, entropy_poll.c used memset without
declaring it. Fix this by including string.h unconditionally.
As a protection against the Lucky Thirteen attack, the TLS code for
CBC decryption in encrypt-then-MAC mode performs extra MAC
calculations to compensate for variations in message size due to
padding. The amount of extra MAC calculation to perform was based on
the assumption that the bulk of the time is spent in processing
64-byte blocks, which is correct for most supported hashes but not for
SHA-384. Correct the amount of extra work for SHA-384 (and SHA-512
which is currently not used in TLS, and MD2 although no one should
care about that).
Fix IAR compiler warnings
Two warnings have been fixed:
1. code 'if( len <= 0xFFFFFFFF )' gave warning 'pointless integer comparison'.
This was fixed by wraping the condition in '#if SIZE_MAX > 0xFFFFFFFF'.
2. code 'diff |= A[i] ^ B[i];' gave warning 'the order of volatile accesses is undefined in'.
This was fixed by read the volatile data in temporary variables before the computation.
Explain IAR warning on volatile access
Consistent use of CMAKE_C_COMPILER_ID
The cast to void was motivated by the assumption that the functions only
return non-zero when passed bad arguments, but that might not be true of
alternative implementation, for example on hardware failure.
- need HW failure codes too
- re-use relevant poly codes for chachapoly to save on limited space
Values were chosen to leave 3 free slots at the end of the NET odd range.
That's what it is. So we shouldn't set a block size != 1.
While at it, move call to chachapoly_update() closer to the one for GCM, as
they are similar (AEAD).
This reduces clutter, making the functions more readable.
Also, it makes lcov see each line as covered. This is not cheating, as the
lines that were previously seen as not covered are not supposed to be reached
anyway (failing branches of the selftests).
Thanks to this and previous test suite enhancements, lcov now sees chacha20.c
and poly1305.c at 100% line coverage, and for chachapoly.c only two lines are
not covered (error returns from lower-level module that should never happen
except perhaps if an alternative implementation returns an unexpected error).
This module used (len, pointer) while (pointer, len) is more common in the
rest of the library, in particular it's what's used in the GCM API that
very comparable to it, so switch to (pointer, len) for consistency.
Note that the crypt_and_tag() and auth_decrypt() functions were already using
the same convention as GCM, so this also increases intra-module consistency.
This module used (len, pointer) while (pointer, len) is more common in the
rest of the library, in particular it's what's used in the CMAC API that is
very comparable to Poly1305, so switch to (pointer, len) for consistency.
In addition to making the APIs of the various AEAD modules more consistent
with each other, it's useful to have an auth_decrypt() function so that we can
safely check the tag ourselves, as the user might otherwise do it in an
insecure way (or even forget to do it altogether).
While the old name is explicit and aligned with the RFC, it's also very long,
so with the mbedtls_ prefix prepended we get a 31-char prefix to each
identifier, which quickly conflicts with our 80-column policy.
The new name is shorter, it's what a lot of people use when speaking about
that construction anyway, and hopefully should not introduce confusion at
it seems unlikely that variants other than 20/1305 be standardised in the
foreseeable future.
- in .h files: only put the context declaration inside the #ifdef _ALT
(this was changed in 2.9.0, ie after the original PR)
- in .c file: only leave selftest out of _ALT: even though some function are
trivial to build from other parts, alt implementors might want to go another
way about them (for efficiency or other reasons)
I refactored some code into the function mbedtls_constant_time_memcmp
in commit 7aad291 but this function is only used by GCM and
AEAD_ChaCha20_Poly1305 to check the tags. So this function is now
only enabled if either of these two ciphers is enabled.
This change permits users of the ChaCha20/Poly1305 algorithms
(and the AEAD construction thereof) to pass NULL pointers for
data that they do not need, and avoids the need to provide a valid
buffer for data that is not used.
This implementation is based off the description in RFC 7539.
The ChaCha20 code is also updated to provide a means of generating
keystream blocks with arbitrary counter values. This is used to
generated the one-time Poly1305 key in the AEAD construction.

Rename to mbedtls_ssl_get_async_operation_data and
mbedtls_ssl_set_async_operation_data so that they're about
"async operation data" and not about some not-obvious "data".
When a handshake step starts an asynchronous operation, the
application needs to know which SSL connection the operation is for,
so that when the operation completes, the application can wake that
connection up. Therefore the async start callbacks need to take the
SSL context as an argument. It isn't enough to let them set a cookie
in the SSL connection, the application needs to be able to find the
right SSL connection later.
Also pass the SSL context to the other callbacks for consistency. Add
a new field to the handshake that the application can use to store a
per-connection context. This new field replaces the former
context (operation_ctx) that was created by the start function and
passed to the resume function.
Add a boolean flag to the handshake structure to track whether an
asynchronous operation is in progress. This is more robust than
relying on the application to set a non-null application context.
Change the signature of mbedtls_ssl_handshake_free again. Now take the
whole SSL context as argument and not just the configuration and the
handshake substructure.
This is in preparation for changing the asynchronous cancel callback
to take the SSL context as an argument.
In the refactoring of ssl_parse_encrypted_pms, I advertently broke the
case when decryption signalled an error, with the variable ret getting
overwritten before calculating diff. Move the calculation of diff
immediately after getting the return code to make the connection more
obvious. Also move the calculation of mask immediately after the
calculation of diff, which doesn't change the behavior, because I find
the code clearer that way.
Conflict resolution:
* ChangeLog: put the new entry from my branch in the proper place.
* include/mbedtls/error.h: counted high-level module error codes again.
* include/mbedtls/ssl.h: picked different numeric codes for the
concurrently added errors; made the new error a full sentence per
current standards.
* library/error.c: ran scripts/generate_errors.pl.
* library/ssl_srv.c:
* ssl_prepare_server_key_exchange "DHE key exchanges": the conflict
was due to style corrections in development
(4cb1f4d49c) which I merged with
my refactoring.
* ssl_prepare_server_key_exchange "For key exchanges involving the
server signing", first case, variable declarations: merged line
by line:
* dig_signed_len: added in async
* signature_len: removed in async
* hashlen: type changed to size_t in development
* hash: size changed to MBEDTLS_MD_MAX_SIZE in async
* ret: added in async
* ssl_prepare_server_key_exchange "For key exchanges involving the
server signing", first cae comment: the conflict was due to style
corrections in development (4cb1f4d49c)
which I merged with my comment changes made as part of refactoring
the function.
* ssl_prepare_server_key_exchange "Compute the hash to be signed" if
`md_alg != MBEDTLS_MD_NONE`: conflict between
ebd652fe2d
"ssl_write_server_key_exchange: calculate hashlen explicitly" and
46f5a3e9b4 "Check return codes from
MD in ssl code". I took the code from commit
ca1d742904 made on top of development
which makes mbedtls_ssl_get_key_exchange_md_ssl_tls return the
hash length.
* programs/ssl/ssl_server2.c: multiple conflicts between the introduction
of MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_ASYNC_IN_PROGRESS and new auxiliary functions and
definitions for async support, and the introduction of idle().
* definitions before main: concurrent additions, kept both.
* main, just after `handshake:`: in the loop around
mbedtls_ssl_handshake(), merge the addition of support for
MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_ASYNC_IN_PROGRESS and SSL_ASYNC_INJECT_ERROR_CANCEL
with the addition of the idle() call.
* main, if `opt.transport == MBEDTLS_SSL_TRANSPORT_STREAM`: take the
code from development and add a check for
MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_ASYNC_IN_PROGRESS.
* main, loop around mbedtls_ssl_read() in the datagram case:
take the code from development and add a check for
MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_ASYNC_IN_PROGRESS; revert to a do...while loop.
* main, loop around mbedtls_ssl_write() in the datagram case:
take the code from development and add a check for
MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_ASYNC_IN_PROGRESS; revert to a do...while loop.
In mbedtls_ssl_get_key_exchange_md_tls1_2, add an output parameter for
the hash length. The code that calls this function can currently do
without it, but it will need the hash length in the future, when
adding support for a third-party callback to calculate the signature
of the hash.
Reorganize ssl_parse_encrypted_pms so that it first prepares the
ciphertext to decrypt, then decrypts it, then returns either the
decrypted premaster secret or random data in an appropriate manner.
This is in preparation for allowing the private key operation to be
offloaded to an external cryptographic module which can operate
asynchronously. The refactored code no longer calculates state before
the decryption that needs to be saved until after the decryption,
which allows the decryption to be started and later resumed.
Use the public key to extract metadata rather than the public key.
Don't abort early if there is no private key.
This is in preparation for allowing the private key operation to be
offloaded to an external cryptographic module.
Implement SSL asynchronous private operation for the case of a
signature operation in a server.
This is a first implementation. It is functional, but the code is not
clean, with heavy reliance on goto.
The pk layer can infer the hash length from the hash type. Calculate
it explicitly here anyway because it's needed for debugging purposes,
and it's needed for the upcoming feature allowing the signature
operation to be offloaded to an external cryptographic processor, as
the offloading code will need to know what length hash to copy.
New compile-time option MBEDTLS_SSL_ASYNC_PRIVATE_C, enabling
callbacks to replace private key operations. These callbacks allow the
SSL stack to make an asynchronous call to an external cryptographic
module instead of calling the cryptography layer inside the library.
The call is asynchronous in that it may return the new status code
MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_ASYNC_IN_PROGRESS, in which case the SSL stack returns
and can be later called where it left off.
This commit introduces the configuration option. Later commits will
implement the feature proper.
This function is declared in ssl_internal.h, so this is not a public
API change.
This is in preparation for mbedtls_ssl_handshake_free needing to call
methods from the config structure.
In SSL, don't use mbedtls_pk_ec or mbedtls_pk_rsa on a private
signature or decryption key (as opposed to a public key or a key used
for DH/ECDH). Extract the data (it's the same data) from the public
key object instead. This way the code works even if the private key is
opaque or if there is no private key object at all.
Specifically, with an EC key, when checking whether the curve in a
server key matches the handshake parameters, rely only on the offered
certificate and not on the metadata of the private key.

Change mbedtls_zeroize() implementation to use memset() instead of a
custom implementation for performance reasons. Furthermore, we would
also like to prevent as much as we can compiler optimisations that
remove zeroization code.
The implementation of mbedtls_zeroize() now uses a volatile function
pointer to memset() as suggested by Colin Percival at:
http://www.daemonology.net/blog/2014-09-04-how-to-zero-a-buffer.html
Add a new macro MBEDTLS_UTILS_ZEROIZE that allows users to configure
mbedtls_zeroize() to an alternative definition when defined. If the
macro is not defined, then mbed TLS will use the default definition of
the function.
This commit removes all the static occurrencies of the function
mbedtls_zeroize() in each of the individual .c modules. Instead the
function has been moved to utils.h that is included in each of the
modules.
The new header contains common information across various mbed TLS
modules and avoids code duplication. To start, utils.h currently only
contains the mbedtls_zeroize() function.
