<content type='text'>
Since commit 55b48e23f5c4 ("genirq/devres: Add error handling in
devm_request_*_irq()"), devm_request_irq() automatically logs
detailed error messages on failure. Remove the now-redundant
driver-specific dev_err() calls.

<content type='text'>
Since the crypto_rng interface for hardware PRNGs is unused and is
redundant with hwrng and the actual Linux RNG, it's being phased out.
Most drivers for it were already removed.  Go ahead and remove the
sun8i-ss support which is one of the only remaining ones.

As usual for crypto_rng, this driver was also buggy: its -&gt;generate()
function had a use-after-free vulnerability due to using
wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout() without handling shutting
down the DMA operation if a signal is sent.  Also, it had a buffer
overread bug in the line 'memcpy(ctx-&gt;seed, d + dlen, ctx-&gt;slen);'.
There's no point in fixing these bugs separately only to remove the code
anyway, so this commit is marked with Fixes and Cc stable.

<content type='text'>
Remove sun4i_ss_rng, as it is insecure and unused:

- It has multiple vulnerabilities.  sun4i_ss_prng_seed() is missing
  locking and has a buffer overflow.  sun4i_ss_prng_generate() fails to
  fill the entire buffer with cryptographic random bytes, because it
  rounds the destination length down and also doesn't actually wait for
  the hardware to be ready before pulling bytes from it.

- No user of this code is known.  It's usable only theoretically via the
  "rng" algorithm type of AF_ALG.  But userspace actually just uses the
  actual Linux RNG (/dev/random etc) instead.  And rng_algs don't
  contribute entropy to the actual Linux RNG either.  (This may have
  been confused with hwrng, which does contribute entropy.)

The sun4i_ss_prng_seed() buffer overflow was reported by Tianchu Chen
and discovered by Atuin - Automated Vulnerability Discovery Engine

There's no point in fixing all these vulnerabilities individually when
this is unused code, so let's just remove it.

<title>crypto: sun8i-ss - avoid hash and rng references</title>

<id>urn:sha1:ef6127bb4f4b51ca91eab58348861c8adcd8db25</id>
<content type='text'>
While the sun4i-ss and sun8i-ce drivers started selecting CRYPTO_RNG,
the sun8i-ss variant does not, and causes a link failure:

aarch64-linux-ld: drivers/crypto/allwinner/sun8i-ss/sun8i-ss-core.o: in function `sun8i_ss_unregister_algs':
sun8i-ss-core.c:(.text.sun8i_ss_unregister_algs+0x94): undefined reference to `crypto_unregister_rng'
aarch64-linux-ld: drivers/crypto/allwinner/sun8i-ss/sun8i-ss-core.o: in function `sun8i_ss_probe':
sun8i-ss-core.c:(.text.sun8i_ss_probe+0x40c): undefined reference to `crypto_register_rng'

Looking more closely, I see that all of the allwinner crypto drivers have the
same logic where the rng and hash parts of the driver are optional, but then the
generic code is still selected, which is a bit inconsistent, aside from the
missing CRYPTO_RNG select on sun8i-ss.

Change the approach so only the bits that are actually used are built, using
ifdef checks around the optional portions that match the optional references
to the sub-drivers.

Ideally the drivers would get reworked in a way that keeps all the bits
related to the skcipher/ahash/rng codecs in the respective sub-drivers,
rather than having a common driver that knows about all of these.

Enabling any template selects CRYPTO_MANAGER, which causes
CRYPTO_MANAGER2 to enable itself, which selects every algorithm type
option.  However, pulling in all algorithm types is needed only when the
self-tests are enabled.  So condition the selections accordingly.

To make this possible, also add the missing selections to various
symbols that were relying on transitive selections via CRYPTO_MANAGER.

-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end was introduced in GCC-14, and we are
getting ready to enable it, globally.

Move the conflicting declaration to the end of the corresponding
structure. Notice that `struct ahash_request` is a flexible structure,
this is a structure that contains a flexible-array member.

With these changes fix the following warning:

drivers/crypto/allwinner/sun8i-ss/sun8i-ss.h:251:30: warning: structure containing a flexible array member is not at the end of another structure [-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end]

In order to make the ahash code more clear and modular, split the
monolithic sun8i_ce_hash_run() callback into two parts, prepare and
unprepare (therefore aligning it with the sun8i-ce skcipher code).

<title>crypto: sun8i-ce - save hash buffers and dma info to request context</title>

<content type='text'>
Similar to sun8i-ce skcipher code, move all request-specific data to
request context. This simplifies sun8i_ce_hash_run() and it eliminates
the remaining kmalloc() calls from the digest path.

Since the 'result' buffer in the request ctx struct is used for from-device
DMA, it needs to be properly aligned to CRYPTO_DMA_ALIGN. Therefore:
- increase reqsize by CRYPTO_DMA_PADDING
- add __aligned(CRYPTO_DMA_ALIGN) attribute for the 'result' buffer
- convert all ahash_request_ctx_dma() calls to ahash_request_ctx_dma()
