blk-crypto: show crypto capabilities in sysfs
Add sysfs files that expose the inline encryption capabilities of request queues: /sys/block/$disk/queue/crypto/max_dun_bits /sys/block/$disk/queue/crypto/modes/$mode /sys/block/$disk/queue/crypto/num_keyslots Userspace can use these new files to decide what encryption settings to use, or whether to use inline encryption at all. This also brings the crypto capabilities in line with the other queue properties, which are already discoverable via the queue directory in sysfs. Design notes: - Place the new files in a new subdirectory "crypto" to group them together and to avoid complicating the main "queue" directory. This also makes it possible to replace "crypto" with a symlink later if we ever make the blk_crypto_profiles into real kobjects (see below). - It was necessary to define a new kobject that corresponds to the crypto subdirectory. For now, this kobject just contains a pointer to the blk_crypto_profile. Note that multiple queues (and hence multiple such kobjects) may refer to the same blk_crypto_profile. An alternative design would more closely match the current kernel data structures: the blk_crypto_profile could be a kobject itself, located directly under the host controller device's kobject, while /sys/block/$disk/queue/crypto would be a symlink to it. I decided not to do that for now because it would require a lot more changes, such as no longer embedding blk_crypto_profile in other structures, and also because I'm not sure we can rule out moving the crypto capabilities into 'struct queue_limits' in the future. (Even if multiple queues share the same crypto engine, maybe the supported data unit sizes could differ due to other queue properties.) It would also still be possible to switch to that design later without breaking userspace, by replacing the directory with a symlink. - Use "max_dun_bits" instead of "max_dun_bytes". Currently, the kernel internally stores this value in bytes, but that's an implementation detail. It probably makes more sense to talk about this value in bits, and choosing bits is more future-proof. - "modes" is a sub-subdirectory, since there may be multiple supported crypto modes, sysfs is supposed to have one value per file, and it makes sense to group all the mode files together. - Each mode had to be named. The crypto API names like "xts(aes)" are not appropriate because they don't specify the key size. Therefore, I assigned new names. The exact names chosen are arbitrary, but they happen to match the names used in log messages in fs/crypto/. - The "num_keyslots" file is a bit different from the others in that it is only useful to know for performance reasons. However, it's included as it can still be useful. For example, a user might not want to use inline encryption if there aren't very many keyslots.
