Possibly derived_key_decrypt() should be checking that the padding that comes out is actually a bunch of zeros. Maybe we don't actually need to get the padding out, but I'm not sure whether the crypto layer will malfunction if we don't give it a buffer for the padding. David

(I don't know why it doesn't use CTS mode instead, which would make the lengths the same.) Since the crypto API can do in-place operations, when *encrypting* I suggest copying the decrypted data to the output buffer, padding it with 0's, and encrypting it in-place. This eliminates the need for the stack buffer. But when *decrypting* there will be up to 15 extra throwaway bytes of output produced by the decryption. There must be space made for these, and since it's output it can't be empty_zero_page. I guess either check whether space can be made for it in-place, or allocate a temporary buffer... Eric

[PATCH v2] keys/encrypted: Fix two crypto-on-the-stack bugs
The driver put a constant buffer of all zeros on the stack and pointed a scatterlist entry at it in two places. This doesn't work with virtual stacks. Use ZERO_PAGE instead.
