Subject: [PATCH v3 00/19] add basic PSP encryption for TCP connections
This is v3 of the PSP RFC [1] posted by Jakub Kicinski one year
ago. General developments since v1 include a fork of packetdrill [2]
with support for PSP added, as well as some test cases, and an
implementation of PSP key exchange and connection upgrade [3]
integrated into the fbthrift RPC library. Both [2] and [3] have been
tested on server platforms with PSP-capable CX7 NICs. Below is the
cover letter from the original RFC:
Add support for PSP encryption of TCP connections.
PSP is a protocol out of Google:
https://github.com/google/psp/blob/main/doc/PSP_Arch_Spec.pdf
which shares some similarities with IPsec. I added some more info
in the first patch so I'll keep it short here.
The protocol can work in multiple modes including tunneling.
But I'm mostly interested in using it as TLS replacement because
of its superior offload characteristics. So this patch does three
things:
- it adds "core" PSP code
PSP is offload-centric, and requires some additional care and
feeding, so first chunk of the code exposes device info.
This part can be reused by PSP implementations in xfrm, tunneling etc.
- TCP integration TLS style
Reuse some of the existing concepts from TLS offload, such as
attaching crypto state to a socket, marking skbs as "decrypted",
egress validation. PSP does not prescribe key exchange protocols.
To use PSP as a more efficient TLS offload we intend to perform
a TLS handshake ("inline" in the same TCP connection) and negotiate
switching to PSP based on capabilities of both endpoints.
This is also why I'm not including a software implementation.
Nobody would use it in production, software TLS is faster,
it has larger crypto records.
- mlx5 implementation
That's mostly other people's work, not 100% sure those folks
consider it ready hence the RFC in the title. But it works :)
Not posted, queued a branch [4] are follow up pieces:
- standard stats
- netdevsim implementation and tests
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20240510030435.120935-1-kuba@kernel.org/
[2] https://github.com/danieldzahka/packetdrill
[3] https://github.com/danieldzahka/fbthrift/tree/dzahka/psp
[4] https://github.com/kuba-moo/linux/tree/psp
Comments we intend to defer to future series:
- using INDIRECT_CALL for tls/psp in sk_validate_xmit_skb(). We
prefer to address this in a dedicated patch series, so that this
series does not need to modify the way tls_validate_xmit_skb() is
declared and stubbed out.
CHANGES:
v3:
- move psp_rcv() and psp_encapsulate() driver helpers into
psp_main.c
- lift pse/pas comparison code into new function:
psp_pse_matches_pas()
- explicitly mark rcu critical section psp_reply_set_decrypted()
- use rcu_dereference_proteced() instead of rcu_read_lock() in
psp_sk_assoc_free() and psp_twsk_assoc_free()
- rename psp_is_nondata() to psp_is_allowed_nondata()
- psp_reply_set_decrypted() should not call psp_sk_assoc(). Call
psp_sk_get_assoc_rcu() instead.
- lift common code from timewait and regular socks into new
function psp_sk_get_assoc_rcu()
- export symbols in psp_sock.c with EXPORT_IPV6_MOD_GPL()
- check for sk_is_inet() before casting to inet_twsk() in
sk_validate_xmit() and in psp_get_assoc_rcu()
- psp_reply_set_decrypted() does not use stuct sock* arg. Drop it.
- reword driver requirement about double rotating keys when the device
supports requesting arbitrary spi key pairs.
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20250625135210.2975231-1-daniel.zahka@gmail.com/
- add pas->dev_id == pse->dev_id to policy checks
- __psp_sk_rx_policy_check() now allows pure ACKs, FINs, and RSTs to
be non-psp authenticated before "PSP Full" state.
- assign tw_validate_skb funtion during psp_twsk_init()
- psp_skb_get_rcu() also checks if sk is a tcp timewait sock when
looking for psp assocs.
- scan ofo queue non-psp data during psp_sock_recv_queue_check()
- add tcp_write_collapse_fence() to psp_sock_assoc_set_tx()
- Add psp_reply_set_decrypted() to encapsulate ACKs, FINs, and RSTs
sent from control socks on behalf of full or timewait socks with PSP
state.
- Add dev_id field to psp_skb_ext
- Move psp_assoc from struct tcp_timewait_sock to struct
inet_timewait_sock
- Move psp_sk_assoc_free() from sk_common_release() to
inet_sock_destruct()
- add documentation about MITM deletion attack, and expectation
from userspace
- add information about accepting clear text ACKs, RSTs, and FINs
to `Securing Connections` section.
