commit 678cce4019d746da6c680c48ba9e6d417803e127 upstream.
The x86_64 implementation of Poly1305 produces the wrong result on some
inputs because poly1305_4block_avx2() incorrectly assumes that when
partially reducing the accumulator, the bits carried from limb 'd4' to
limb 'h0' fit in a 32-bit integer. This is true for poly1305-generic
which processes only one block at a time. However, it's not true for
the AVX2 implementation, which processes 4 blocks at a time and
therefore can produce intermediate limbs about 4x larger.
Fix it by making the relevant calculations use 64-bit arithmetic rather
than 32-bit. Note that most of the carries already used 64-bit
arithmetic, but the d4 -> h0 carry was different for some reason.
To be safe I also made the same change to the corresponding SSE2 code,
though that only operates on 1 or 2 blocks at a time. I don't think
it's really needed for poly1305_block_sse2(), but it doesn't hurt
because it's already x86_64 code. It *might* be needed for
poly1305_2block_sse2(), but overflows aren't easy to reproduce there.
This bug was originally detected by my patches that improve testmgr to
fuzz algorithms against their generic implementation. But also add a
test vector which reproduces it directly (in the AVX2 case).

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
