[PATCH 2/2] crypto: skcipher: Remove VLA usage for SKCIPHER_REQUEST_ON_STACK

From: Kees Cook <hidden>
Date: 2018-09-04 18:16:37
Also in: linux-crypto, lkml
Subsystem: crypto api, the rest · Maintainers: Herbert Xu, "David S. Miller", Linus Torvalds

In the quest to remove all stack VLA usage from the kernel[1], this
caps the skcipher request size similar to other limits and adds a sanity
check at registration. Looking at instrumented tcrypt output, the largest
is for lrw:

	crypt: testing lrw(aes)
	crypto_skcipher_set_reqsize: 8
	crypto_skcipher_set_reqsize: 88
	crypto_skcipher_set_reqsize: 472
