opencrypto: Loosen restriction on HMAC key sizes
Theoretically, HMACs do not actually have any limit on key sizes.
Transforms should compact input keys larger than the HMAC block size by
using the transform (hash) on the input key.
(Short input keys are padded out with zeros to the HMAC block size.)
Still, not all FreeBSD crypto drivers that provide HMAC functionality
handle longer-than-blocksize keys appropriately, so enforce a "maximum" key
length in the crypto API for auth_hashes that previously expressed a
requirement. (The "maximum" is the size of a single HMAC block for the
given transform.) Unconstrained auth_hashes are left as-is.
I believe the previous hardcoded sizes were committed in the original
import of opencrypto from OpenBSD and are due to specific protocol
details of IPSec. Note that none of the previous sizes actually matched
the appropriate HMAC block size.
The previous hardcoded sizes made the SHA tests in cryptotest.py
useless for testing FreeBSD crypto drivers; none of the NIST-KAT example
inputs had keys sized to the previous expectations.
The following drivers were audited to check that they handled keys up to
the block size of the HMAC safely:
Software HMAC: * padlock(4) * cesa * glxsb * safe(4) * ubsec(4) Hardware accelerated HMAC: * ccr(4) * hifn(4) * sec(4) (Only supports up to 64 byte keys despite claiming to support SHA2 HMACs, but validates input key sizes) * cryptocteon (MIPS) * nlmsec (MIPS) * rmisec (MIPS) (Amusingly, does not appear to use key material at all -- presumed broken)
