Merge branch 'tipc-add-more-features-to-TIPC-encryption'
Tuong Lien says: ==================== tipc: add more features to TIPC encryption This series adds some new features to TIPC encryption: - Patch 1 ("tipc: optimize key switching time and logic") optimizes the code and logic in preparation for the following commits. - Patch 2 ("tipc: introduce encryption master key") introduces support of 'master key' for authentication of new nodes and key exchange. A master key can be set/changed by user via netlink (eg. using the same 'tipc node set key' command in iproute2/tipc). - Patch 3 ("tipc: add automatic session key exchange") allows a session key to be securely exchanged between nodes as needed. - Patch 4 ("tipc: add automatic rekeying for encryption key") adds automatic 'rekeying' of session keys a specific interval. The new key will be distributed automatically to peer nodes, so become active then. The rekeying interval is configurable via netlink as well. v2: update the "tipc: add automatic session key exchange" patch to fix "implicit declaration" issue when built without "CONFIG_TIPC_CRYPTO". v3: update the patches according to David comments by using the "genl_info->extack" for messages in response to netlink user config requests. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
