Jason A. Donenfeld says: ==================== Introduce The SipHash PRF This patch series introduces SipHash into the kernel. SipHash is a cryptographically secure PRF, which serves a variety of functions, and is introduced in patch #1. The following patch #2 introduces HalfSipHash, an optimization suitable for hash tables only. Finally, the last two patches in this series show two usages of the introduced siphash function family. It is expected that after this initial introduction, other usages will follow. Please read the extensive descriptions in patch #1 and patch #2 of what these functions do and the various levels of assurances. They're products of intense cryptographic research, and I believe they're suitable for the uses outlined herein. The use of SipHash is not limited to the networking subsystem -- indeed I would like to use it in other places too in the kernel. But after discussing with a few on this list and at Linus' suggestion, the initial import of these functions is coming through the networking tree. After these are merged, it will then be easier to expand use elsewhere. Changes v2->v3: - hsiphash keys now simply use an unsigned long, in order to avoid a cluttered ifdef and make it a bit more clear what's happening. - A typo in the documentation has been fixed. - The documentation has been augmented with an example relating to struct packing and passing. - The net_secret variable is now __read_mostly. Hopefully this is the last of the required revisions, and v3 can be merged into net-next. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

SipHash - a short input PRF | ||
----------------------------------------------- | ||
Written by Jason A. Donenfeld <jason@zx2c4.com> | ||
|
||
SipHash is a cryptographically secure PRF -- a keyed hash function -- that | ||
performs very well for short inputs, hence the name. It was designed by | ||
cryptographers Daniel J. Bernstein and Jean-Philippe Aumasson. It is intended | ||
as a replacement for some uses of: `jhash`, `md5_transform`, `sha_transform`, | ||
and so forth. | ||
|
||
SipHash takes a secret key filled with randomly generated numbers and either | ||
an input buffer or several input integers. It spits out an integer that is | ||
indistinguishable from random. You may then use that integer as part of secure | ||
sequence numbers, secure cookies, or mask it off for use in a hash table. | ||
|
||
1. Generating a key | ||
|
||
Keys should always be generated from a cryptographically secure source of | ||
random numbers, either using get_random_bytes or get_random_once: | ||
|
||
siphash_key_t key; | ||
get_random_bytes(&key, sizeof(key)); | ||
|
||
If you're not deriving your key from here, you're doing it wrong. | ||
|
||
2. Using the functions | ||
|
||
There are two variants of the function, one that takes a list of integers, and | ||
one that takes a buffer: | ||
|
||
u64 siphash(const void *data, size_t len, const siphash_key_t *key); | ||
|
||
And: | ||
|
||
u64 siphash_1u64(u64, const siphash_key_t *key); | ||
u64 siphash_2u64(u64, u64, const siphash_key_t *key); | ||
u64 siphash_3u64(u64, u64, u64, const siphash_key_t *key); | ||
u64 siphash_4u64(u64, u64, u64, u64, const siphash_key_t *key); | ||
u64 siphash_1u32(u32, const siphash_key_t *key); | ||
u64 siphash_2u32(u32, u32, const siphash_key_t *key); | ||
u64 siphash_3u32(u32, u32, u32, const siphash_key_t *key); | ||
u64 siphash_4u32(u32, u32, u32, u32, const siphash_key_t *key); | ||
|
||
If you pass the generic siphash function something of a constant length, it | ||
will constant fold at compile-time and automatically choose one of the | ||
optimized functions. | ||
|
||
3. Hashtable key function usage: | ||
|
||
struct some_hashtable { | ||
DECLARE_HASHTABLE(hashtable, 8); | ||
siphash_key_t key; | ||
}; | ||
|
||
void init_hashtable(struct some_hashtable *table) | ||
{ | ||
get_random_bytes(&table->key, sizeof(table->key)); | ||
} | ||
|
||
static inline hlist_head *some_hashtable_bucket(struct some_hashtable *table, struct interesting_input *input) | ||
{ | ||
return &table->hashtable[siphash(input, sizeof(*input), &table->key) & (HASH_SIZE(table->hashtable) - 1)]; | ||
} | ||
|
||
You may then iterate like usual over the returned hash bucket. | ||
|
||
4. Security | ||
|
||
SipHash has a very high security margin, with its 128-bit key. So long as the | ||
key is kept secret, it is impossible for an attacker to guess the outputs of | ||
the function, even if being able to observe many outputs, since 2^128 outputs | ||
is significant. | ||
|
||
Linux implements the "2-4" variant of SipHash. | ||
|
||
5. Struct-passing Pitfalls | ||
|
||
Often times the XuY functions will not be large enough, and instead you'll | ||
want to pass a pre-filled struct to siphash. When doing this, it's important | ||
to always ensure the struct has no padding holes. The easiest way to do this | ||
is to simply arrange the members of the struct in descending order of size, | ||
and to use offsetendof() instead of sizeof() for getting the size. For | ||
performance reasons, if possible, it's probably a good thing to align the | ||
struct to the right boundary. Here's an example: | ||
|
||
const struct { | ||
struct in6_addr saddr; | ||
u32 counter; | ||
u16 dport; | ||
} __aligned(SIPHASH_ALIGNMENT) combined = { | ||
.saddr = *(struct in6_addr *)saddr, | ||
.counter = counter, | ||
.dport = dport | ||
}; | ||
u64 h = siphash(&combined, offsetofend(typeof(combined), dport), &secret); | ||
|
||

HalfSipHash - SipHash's insecure younger cousin | ||
----------------------------------------------- | ||
Written by Jason A. Donenfeld <jason@zx2c4.com> | ||
|
||
On the off-chance that SipHash is not fast enough for your needs, you might be | ||
able to justify using HalfSipHash, a terrifying but potentially useful | ||
possibility. HalfSipHash cuts SipHash's rounds down from "2-4" to "1-3" and, | ||
even scarier, uses an easily brute-forcable 64-bit key (with a 32-bit output) | ||
instead of SipHash's 128-bit key. However, this may appeal to some | ||
high-performance `jhash` users. | ||
|
||
Danger! | ||
|
||
Do not ever use HalfSipHash except for as a hashtable key function, and only | ||
then when you can be absolutely certain that the outputs will never be | ||
transmitted out of the kernel. This is only remotely useful over `jhash` as a | ||
means of mitigating hashtable flooding denial of service attacks. | ||
|
||
1. Generating a key | ||
|
||
Keys should always be generated from a cryptographically secure source of | ||
random numbers, either using get_random_bytes or get_random_once: | ||
|
||
hsiphash_key_t key; | ||
get_random_bytes(&key, sizeof(key)); | ||
|
||
If you're not deriving your key from here, you're doing it wrong. | ||
|
||
2. Using the functions | ||
|
||
There are two variants of the function, one that takes a list of integers, and | ||
one that takes a buffer: | ||
|
||
u32 hsiphash(const void *data, size_t len, const hsiphash_key_t *key); | ||
|
||
And: | ||
|
||
u32 hsiphash_1u32(u32, const hsiphash_key_t *key); | ||
u32 hsiphash_2u32(u32, u32, const hsiphash_key_t *key); | ||
u32 hsiphash_3u32(u32, u32, u32, const hsiphash_key_t *key); | ||
u32 hsiphash_4u32(u32, u32, u32, u32, const hsiphash_key_t *key); | ||
|
||
If you pass the generic hsiphash function something of a constant length, it | ||
will constant fold at compile-time and automatically choose one of the | ||
optimized functions. | ||
|
||
3. Hashtable key function usage: | ||
|
||
struct some_hashtable { | ||
DECLARE_HASHTABLE(hashtable, 8); | ||
hsiphash_key_t key; | ||
}; | ||
|
||
void init_hashtable(struct some_hashtable *table) | ||
{ | ||
get_random_bytes(&table->key, sizeof(table->key)); | ||
} | ||
|
||
static inline hlist_head *some_hashtable_bucket(struct some_hashtable *table, struct interesting_input *input) | ||
{ | ||
return &table->hashtable[hsiphash(input, sizeof(*input), &table->key) & (HASH_SIZE(table->hashtable) - 1)]; | ||
} | ||
|
||
You may then iterate like usual over the returned hash bucket. | ||
|
||
4. Performance | ||
|
||
HalfSipHash is roughly 3 times slower than JenkinsHash. For many replacements, | ||
this will not be a problem, as the hashtable lookup isn't the bottleneck. And | ||
in general, this is probably a good sacrifice to make for the security and DoS | ||
resistance of HalfSipHash. |
