Thanks for working on this!  Android uses a similar device-mapper target called
dm-default-key
(https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/common/+/refs/heads/android-mainline/drivers/md/dm-default-key.c),
and I've been looking for the best way to get the functionality upstream.  The
main challenge is that dm-default-key is integrated with fscrypt, such that if
fscrypt encrypts the data, then the data isn't also encrypted with the block
device key.  There are also cases such as f2fs garbage collection in which
filesystems read/write raw data without en/decryption by any key.  So
essentially a passthrough mode is supported on individual I/O requests.

It looks like this patch not only does not support that, but it ignores the
existence of fscrypt (or any other use of inline encryption by filesystems)
entirely, and overrides any filesystem-provided key with the block device's.  At
the very least, this case would need to be explicitly not supported initially,
i.e. dm-inlinecrypt would error out if the upper layer already provided a key.

But I would like there to be an agreed-upon way to extend the code to support
the pass-through mode, so that filesystem and block device level encryption work
properly together.  It can indeed be done with a device-mapper target (as
Android does already), whether it's called "dm-inlinecrypt" or "dm-default-key",
but not in a standalone way: pass-through requests also require an addition to
struct bio and some support in block and filesystem code.  Previously, people
have said that supporting this functionality natively in the block layer would
be a better fit than a dm target (e.g., see the thread
https://lore.kernel.org/all/1658316391-13472-1-git-send-email-israelr@nvidia.com/T/#u).
I'd appreciate people's feedback on which approach they'd prefer.

Anyway, assuming the device-mapper target approach, I also have some other
feedback on this patch:

New algorithms should not be added in the same patch as a new dm target.  Also,
I do not see why there is any need for the new algorithms you are adding
(AES-128-XTS, AES-128-CBC, and AES-256-CBC).  XTS is preferable to CBC, and
AES-256 is preferable to AES-128.  AES-256-XTS is already supported, both by
blk-crypto and by Qualcomm ICE.  So you should just use AES-256-XTS.

There are also a lot of miscellaneous issues with the proposed code.  Missing
->io_hints and ->status methods, truncating IVs to 32 bits, unnecessarily using
a custom algorithm name syntax that doesn't make the IV generation method
explicit, unnecessarily splitting bios, incrementing IVs every 512 bytes instead
of each sector, etc.  I can comment on all of these in detail if you want, but
to start it might be helpful to just check out dm-default-key
(https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/common/+/refs/heads/android-mainline/drivers/md/dm-default-key.c)
and maybe base your code on that, as it has handled these issues already.  E.g.,
its syntax is aligned with dm-crypt's, it implements ->io_hints and ->status,
and it calculates the maximum DUN correctly so that it can be determined
correctly whether the inline encryption hardware can be used or not.

Finally, the commit message needs to summarize what the patch does and what its
motivation is.  Currently it just talks about the Qualcomm ICE driver and
doesn't actually say anything about dm-inlinecrypt.  Yes, the motivation for
dm-inlinecrypt involves being able to take advantage of inline encryption
hardware such as Qualcomm ICE, but it's not explained.

Thanks,

Adding a default key is not the job of a block remapping driver.  You'll
need to fit that into the file system and/or file system level helpers.

I agree that we have an incompatibility here, but simply erroring out
feels like the wrong way to approach the stacking.  If a stacking driver
consumes the inline encryption capability it must not advertise it to
the upper layers.

What about a block device ioctl, as was previously proposed
(https://lore.kernel.org/linux-block/1658316391-13472-1-git-send-email-israelr@nvidia.com/T/#u)?

Right, I missed that's actually already how it works.  The crypto capabilities
are only passed through if the target sets DM_TARGET_PASSES_CRYPTO.

No.  This is a file system layer policy and needs to sit entirely above
the block layer instead of breaking abstraction boundaries.

Hi

The patch seems OK. Should it go in via the device mapper tree or the 
block layer tree?

This piece of code was copied from the dm-crypt target. For dm-crypt, I 
was actually benchmarking the performance for various 
DM_CRYPT_DEFAULT_MAX_READ_SIZE and DM_CRYPT_DEFAULT_MAX_WRITE_SIZE values 
and I selected the values that resulted in the best performance.

You should benchmark it too to find the optimal I/O size. Perhaps you find 
out that there is no need to split big requests and this piece of code can 
be dropped.

What if someone reloads the table? I think you should display the key. 
dmsetup does not display the key if the "--showkeys" parameter is not 
specified.

fscrypt isn't the only thing that would use such functionality. If you 
put it in the filesystem layer then you're only serving fscrypt when 
there are other usecases that don't involve filesystems at all.

Let's say I'm using LVM, so I've got a physical partition that stores a 
couple different virtual partitions. I can use dm-default-key both 
underneath the physical partition, and on top of some of the virtual 
partitions. In such a configuration, the virtual partitions with their 
own dm-default-key instance get encrypted with their own key and passed 
through the lower dm-default-key instance onto the hardware. Virtual 
partitions that lack their own dm-default-key are encrypted once by the 
lower dm-default-key instance. There's no filesystem involved here, and 
yet to avoid the cost of double-encryption we need the passthrough 
functionality of dm-default-key. This scenario is constrained entirely 
to the block layer.

Other usecases involve loopback devices. This is a real scenario of 
something we do in userspace. I have a loopback file, with a partition 
table inside where some partitions are encrypted and others are not. I 
would like to store this loopback file in a filesystem that sits on top 
of a dm-crypt protected partition. With the current capabilities of the 
kernel, I'd have to double-encrypt. But with dm-default-key, I could 
encrypt just once. Unlike the previous case, this time there's a layer 
of filesystem between the block devices, but it still can't do anything: 
the filesystem that stores the loopback device can't do anything because 
it has no idea that any encryption is happening. fscrypt isn't being 
used, nor can it be used since the file is only partially encrypted, so 
the filesystem is unaware that the contents of the loopback file are 
encrypted. And the filesystem doesn't know that it's encrypted from 
below by its block device. So what can the filesystem do if, as far as 
it can tell, nothing is being encrypted?

Best,

Adrian

Which would completely break the security model of the underlying
file system, because it can't trust what you do in the loop device.

This is the prime example of why allowing higher layers to skip
encryption is a no-go.

Then you set up an dm-crype device mapper table for the partition table as
well.

Because you are now bypassing encryption for certainl LBA ranges in
the file system based on hints/flags for something sitting way above
in the stack.

Sure, but then this way you're encrypting each partition twice. Once by the dm-crypt inside of the partition, and again by the dm-crypt that's under the partition table. This double encryption is ruinous for performance, so it's just not a feasible solution and thus people don't do this. Would be nice if we had the flexibility though.

Plus, I'm not sure that such a double encryption approach is even feasible with blk-crypto. Is the blk-crypto engine capable of receiving two keys and encrypting twice with them?

Well the data is still encrypted. It's just encrypted with a different key. If the attacker has a FDE dump of the disk, the data is still just as inaccessible to them.

In fact, allowing for this will let us tighten up security instead of punching holes. It would let us put encrypted home directories on top of full-disk encryption. So if an attacker has a disk image and the FDE key, they still wouldn't be able to decrypt the user's home directory because they'd need more keys. We also want to put fscrypt on top of the encrypted home directories to encrypt each app data directory, so if you have a banking app the attacker wouldn't be able to get that app's data even if they manage to get your home directory key. Right now, doing something like this requires stacking encryption and is thus unfeasible and we can't do it, so we're stuck with one layer of full disk encryption and no isolation between users and apps.

Thanks,
Adrian

Why do you assume the encryption would happen twice?

No one knows that it actually is encryped.  The lower layer just knows
the skip encryption flag was set, but it has zero assurance data
actually was encrypted.

I'm not assuming. That's the behavior of dm-crypt without passthrough.
It just encrypts everything that moves through it. If I stack two
layers of dm-crypt on top of each other my data is encrypted twice.

I think it makes sense to require that the data is actually encrypted
whenever the flag is set. Of course there's no way to enforce that
programmatically, but code that sets the flag without making sure the
data gets encrypted some other way wouldn't pass review.

Alternatively, if I recall correctly it should be possible to just
check if the bio has an attached encryption context. If it has one,
then just pass-through. If it doesn't, then attach your own. No flag
required this way, and dm-default-key would only add encryption iff
the data isn't already encrypted.

Would either of those solutions be acceptable?

Best,
Adrian

This piqued my interest, so I went and did some git archeology to see
why this isn't the case and there's a flag now. Apparently fscrypt
will sometimes rearrange blocks without the key present. This is fine,
because if there's no key, blk-crypto doesn't need to do anything and
we can just shuffle the encrypted data around. We definitely don't
want to re-encrypt the data in that scenario.

Also, thinking about it a bit more: what should happen if we stack
dm-crypt on top of dm-default-key. I see no point in double-encrypting
even in this situation. So, dm-crypt would set the flag to skip
dm-default-key, even though it's not actually attaching an encryption
context to the bio.

So it seems like the flag is the better solution. It would just be
impermissible to set the flag on a request that will write plaintext
data to disk.

You have a lot of trusted in reviers. But even that doesn't help as
the kernel can load code that never passed review.

That at least sounds a little better.  But it still doesn't answer
why we need this hack instead always encrypting at one layer instead
of splitting it up.

As mentioned earlier in the thread: I don't have a usecase specifically for this and it was an example of a situation where passthrough is necessary and no filesystem is involved at all. Though, as I also pointed out, a usecase where you're putting encrypted virtual partitions on an encrypted LVM setup isn't all that absurd.

In my real-world case, I'm putting encrypted loop devices on top of a filesystem that holds its own sensitive data. Each loop device has dm-crypt inside and uses a unique key, but the filesystem needs to be encrypted too (because, again, it has its own sensitive data outside of the loop devices). The loop devices cannot be put onto their own separate partition because there's no good way to know ahead of time how much space either of the partitions would need: sometimes the loop devices need to take up loads of space on the partition, and other times the non-loop-device data needs to take up that space. And to top it all off, the distribution of allocated space needs to change dynamically.

The current Linux kernel does not support this use-case without double encryption. The loop devices are encrypted once with their own dm-crypt instance. Then that same data is encrypted a second time over by the partition.

Actually this scenario is simplified. We actually want to use fscrypt inside of the loopback file too. So actually, without the passthrough mechanism some data would be encrypted three distinct times.

Ultimately, I'm unsure what the concern is here.

It's a glaringly loud opt-in marker that encryption was already performed or is otherwise intentionally unnecessary. The flag existing isn't what punches through the security model. It's the use of the flag that does. I can't imagine anything setting the flag by accident. So what are you actually concerned about? How are you expecting this flag to actually be misused?

As for third party modules that might punch holes, so what? 3rd party modules aren't the kernel's responsibility or problem

Please see my follow up. This is actually not feasible because it doesn't work. Sometimes, fscrypt will just ask to move encrypted blocks around without providing an encryption context; the data doesn't need to be decrypted to be reshuffled on disk. This flag-less approach I describe would actually just break: it it would unintentionally encrypt that data during shuffling.

> But it still doesn't answer

In my loopback file scenario, what would be the one layer that could handle the encryption?

- the loopback files are just regular files that happen to have encrypted data inside of them. Doing it a different way changes the semantics: with a loopback file, I'm able to move it into a basic FAT filesystem and back without losing the encryption on the data

- the filesystem is completely unaware of any encryption. The loopback files are just files with random content inside. The filesystem itself is encrypted from below by the block layer. So, there's nothing for it to do.

- the underlying instance of dm-crypt is encrypting a single opaque blob of data, and so without explicit communication from above it cannot possibly know how to handle this.

Thus, I don't see a single layer that can handle this. The only solution is for upper layers to communicate downward.

Best,
Adrian

As an encrypted-systems administrator, I would actively expect and

Anything that allows a higher level to bypass the full disk encryption

Sure I'm sure there's usecases where passthrough doesn't make sense.
It should absolutely be an opt-in flag on the dm target, so you the
administrator at setup time can choose whether or not you perform
double-encryption (and it defaults to doing so). Because there are
usecases where it doesn't matter, and for those usecases we'd set the
flag and allow passthrough for performance reasons.

Sorry about that. Apparently that happens when I send from mobile, and
I couldn't find a setting to change it. I'll stick to replying from

As mentioned earlier in the thread: I don't have a usecase
specifically for this and it was an example of a situation where
passthrough is necessary and no filesystem is involved at all. Though,
as I also pointed out, a usecase where you're putting encrypted
virtual partitions on an encrypted LVM setup isn't all that absurd.

In my real-world case, I'm putting encrypted loop devices on top of a
filesystem that holds its own sensitive data. Each loop device has
dm-crypt inside and uses a unique key, but the filesystem needs to be
encrypted too (because, again, it has its own sensitive data outside
of the loop devices). The loop devices cannot be put onto their own
separate partition because there's no good way to know ahead of time
how much space either of the partitions would need: sometimes the loop
devices need to take up loads of space on the partition, and other
times the non-loop-device data needs to take up that space. And to top
it all off, the distribution of allocated space needs to change
dynamically.

The current Linux kernel does not support this use-case without double
encryption. The loop devices are encrypted once with their own
dm-crypt instance. Then that same data is encrypted a second time over
by the partition.

Actually this scenario is simplified. We actually want to use fscrypt
inside of the loopback file too. So actually, without the passthrough
mechanism some data would be encrypted three distinct times.

Ultimately, I'm unsure what the concern is here.

It's a glaringly loud opt-in marker that encryption was already
performed or is otherwise intentionally unnecessary. The flag existing
isn't what punches through the security model. It's the use of the
flag that does. I can't imagine anything setting the flag by accident.
So what are you actually concerned about? How are you expecting this
flag to actually be misused?

As for third party modules that might punch holes, so what? 3rd party
modules aren't the kernel's responsibility or problem

Please see my follow up. This is actually not feasible because it
doesn't work. Sometimes, fscrypt will just ask to move encrypted
blocks around without providing an encryption context; the data
doesn't need to be decrypted to be reshuffled on disk. This flag-less
approach I describe would actually just break: it it would
unintentionally encrypt that data during shuffling.

In my loopback file scenario, what would be the one layer that could
handle the encryption?

- the loopback files are just regular files that happen to have
encrypted data inside of them. Doing it a different way changes the
semantics: with a loopback file, I'm able to move it into a basic FAT
filesystem and back without losing the encryption on the data

- the filesystem is completely unaware of any encryption. The loopback
files are just files with random content inside. The filesystem itself
is encrypted from below by the block layer. So, there's nothing for it
to do.

- the underlying instance of dm-crypt is encrypting a single opaque
blob of data, and so without explicit communication from above it
cannot possibly know how to handle this.

Thus, I don't see a single layer that can handle this. The only
solution is for upper layers to communicate downward.

Best,
Adrian

It's a little odd but not entirely absurd indeed.  But it can also
be easily handled by setting up a dm-crypt table just for the
partition table.

And that's exactly the case I worry about.  The file system can't
trust a layer entirely above it.  If we want to be able to have a
space pool between a file systems with one encryption policy and
images with another we'll need to replace the loop driver with a 
block driver taking blocks from the file system space pool.  Which
might be a good idea for various other reasons.

On the one hand they are not.  On the other if you have a file system
encryption scheme that is bypassed by a random other loadable code
setting a single flag I would not consider it very trust worth or in
fact actively dangerous.

That doesn't cover it. Not all of the virtual partitions necessarily
need to have their own dm-crypt, so they should be encrypted by the
underlying dm-crypt.

So the dm-crypt doesn't just need to cover the partition table, but
also arbitrary ranges within the whole partition

I don't quite understand the difference between a loopback file, and a
block driver that uses space from a filesystem space pool. Isn't that
what a loopback file is?

I'd expect that the lower encryption layer has an opt-in flag to turn
on and off passthrough functionality. I think I neglected to mention
that before; it was discussed in other threads and I just kinda
assumed that it would be there.

So, with that in mind: the loadable code could set the flag, but the
underlying dm-inlinecrypt would need to opt into the weaker security
too. If the system administrator has opted the lower layer into
passthrough, then they've considered the risks of what could happen if
an upper layer sets the flag and decided that it's OK. If the
administrator didn't opt in, then the flag has no effect. Does that
sound more acceptable?

I can't get rid of the loopback devices. They're an essential part of
this. I should be able to take the encrypted loopback file, send it to
a different machine, and have it keep working the same as it always
has.

Without the loopback device, I'm stuck with fscrypt. Which isn't
supported by all filesystems, and encrypts much less data than we
require.

If you're so concerend about security that you're double or triple
encrypting data at various layers, then obviously skipping encryption
at a lower layer just because an upper layer says "He, I already
encrypted this!" just doesn't make any sense.  

So how does your scheme defend against bad actors?  I'm on a system
with an encrypted disk.  I make a file and mount it with loop, and the
encrypt it.  But it's slow!  So I turn off encryption.  Now I shutdown
the loop device cleanly, unmount, and reboot the system.  So what
should I be seing in those blocks if I examine the plain file that's
now not mounted?  

Could this be a way to smuggle data out because now the data written
to the low level disk is encypted with a much weaker algorithm?  So I
can just take the system disk and read the raw data and find the data?  

I'm not saying it's going to be easy or simple, but is it possible?

I'm double or triple encrypting data at various layers to give myself
a broader set of keys that I can work with and revoke individually,
not because encrypting the same data more than once makes the
encryption more secure. I expressly _don't_ want to encrypt the data
multiple times, I just want the flexibility to wipe keys from memory
and make parts of the filesystem tree cryptographically inaccessible.

For example: my loop devices. I'd like to stack three layers of
encryption: the backing filesystem is encrypted, the loop devices are
encrypted, and inside the loop devices we use fsverity. Specifically
in my use-case: the backing filesystem is the root filesystem, each
loopback file is a user's home directory, and each folder with fscrypt
encryption belongs to a single app. The root filesystem is protected
with generic full-disk-encryption, and contains both the home
directories and other lightly-sensitive data that can be shared
between users (WiFi passwords, installed software). The
full-disk-encryption key is in memory for as long as the system is
booted, so the data is protected while the system is powered off. Then
on top of that I have the home directories, which are in an encrypted
loopback file encrypted with a key derived from the user's login
password. We deem not only file names and contents sensitive, but also
directory structures and file metadata (xattrs, etc), so fsverity is
not an option for us. The user's encryption key is in memory for as
long as the user is logged in. Note that this is a stronger protection
than the rootfs's encryption: each user's data is protected not only
when the device is off, but also when the user is logged out. A
similar pattern repeats for the fscrypt dirs: each app gets an
fsverity-protected data directory, and keys are only given to the app
while it's running and while the user's session is unlocked. When the
user locks their device, or when an app is closed, that app's keys are
wiped from memory. This way, an attacker can get their hands on a
booted and logged-in device, but as long as it's locked they won't be
able to extract the necessary keys to read your banking app's login
credentials and steal your money (for example...)

That's the encryption scheme I'd like to implement on the Linux
desktop. We're part of the way there already, and we've hit the
double-encryption barrier. Note that none of the security of this
scheme comes from the fact that data is encrypted twice. Again we
don't want the data to be encrypted multiple times: the performance
cost that this would incur is a blocker to implementing this
encryption scheme. We stack encryption so that we can revoke parts of
the key hierarchy, not to actually stack encryption.

> So how does your scheme defend against bad actors?

Hopefully my explanation above makes my threat model and use-case a
bit more clear.

Depends on what you mean by "turn off encryption".

I'm going to assume you mean that you just turned on the passthrough
mode in the lower dm-default-key table and did nothing else? In this
case, if you read the loopback file you'll get the ciphertext of the
lower encryption layer, or in other words you'll see the ciphertext
resulting from encrypting the loopback file twice. If you try to mount
the loopback file as you normally do, you'll just see gibberish data,
and the data will be inaccessible until you turn passthrough back off.
You already wrote data to disk that was encrypted twice, and now
you're telling the lower layer to do nothing for those block ranges.
So, the upper layer will see the lower layer's ciphertext, instead of
its own. It'll decrypt the lower layer's ciphertext with the upper
layer's key, and return the gibberish result that this operation
produces. New data you write to the loopback file will work as it's
supposed to: it'll be encrypted once, and can be read back fine.
Similar things will happen if you flip the passthrough flag from on to
off as well.  Changing the passthrough mode flag on a lower layer
requires a reformat of the data inside. It's similar behavior to
setting up dm-crypt with the wrong encryption algorithm or the wrong
key.

Let's say that you _do_ reformat the loopback file when you turn on
passthrough mode. So now you have passthrough mode on, and all data is
encrypted once on disk. Then you try to read the loopback file. You'll
see the same ciphertext that you'd see if you were stacking two
instances of dm-crypt on top of each other. The only difference from
dm-crypt is that this ciphertext is stored directly on disk, instead
of being encrypted a second time. So if you get the LBAs on disk, then
read the disk directly on those LBAs, you'll see the same ciphertext
as reading it through a filesystem. That's the difference.

The weakest encryption algorithm is just storing the plaintext on
disk; XOR with a null key, if you will. Let's say that there's an
out-of-tree device-mapper driver for this, called dm-fake-encryption.
You're asking what would happen if we put an instance of
dm-fake-encryption on top of a passthrough-enabled dm-default-key.

Well, then data that went through dm-fake-encryption will be stored in
plaintext on disk, and data that doesn't go through dm-fake-encryption
will instead go through dm-default-key and get properly encrypted on
disk. If an attacker gets the disk, then all the data that was written
through the dm-fake-encryption layer will be stored in plaintext on
disk and the attacker will be able to read it. Data that didn't go
through dm-fake-encryption will be encrypted on disk and the attacker
will be unable to read it.

However, I don't understand the risk of smuggling this introduces. In
situations where smuggling data through layers of encryption is a risk
factor to worry about (a cloud VPS host?), the administrator would
just disable passthrough. With passthrough off on the layer below,
dm-fake-encryption's signalling is ignored and the data is
double-encrypted anyways. No smuggling possible then.

Could you walk me through a specific attack scenario for this that you
have in mind? Because I can't really think of one, so it's hard to
think of a solution.

Adrian

You can add a flag to an inode, then you can modify the page cache code so 
that if it is reading/writing a flagged file, it will attach the flag to 
the bio. Then, you can create a device-mapper target "dm-flag-switch" that 
will forward unflagged bios to one underlying device and flagged bios to 
another underlying device.

I think this is not impossible. But this change needs to go through the 
VFS tree, so I suggest that you start asking about it there.
