[PATCH RFC net-next v2 5/5] selftests/tls: add KeyUpdate tests

Martin Belanger via B4 Relay devnull+martin.nvme.dev.gmail.com at kernel.org
Wed Oct 28 06:52:55 PDT 2026


From: Martin Belanger <martin.belanger at dell.com>

Test the in-kernel KeyUpdate on a bidirectional connection with both
traffic secrets registered on each socket:

- registration errors: wrong length, missing key, TLS 1.2, SM4, the
  RX secret before the TX secret, and a secret that does not give the
  installed key;
- KeyUpdates in both directions with data around them;
- a data record, a KeyUpdate and another data record queued before
  the first read;
- update_requested: the peer answers before its next data, and a
  second request waits for the answer;
- splice() across a KeyUpdate;
- a key installed with TLS_TX removes the registered secrets;
- after a key installed with TLS_RX, a new update_requested is
  accepted;
- TLS_TX_KEY_UPDATE on a shut down socket does not raise SIGPIPE;
- more than 8 KeyUpdates in one second, and an invalid
  request_update value, end the connection.

The keys are derived from the secrets with HKDF-Expand-Label, with the
HMAC of the kernel through AF_ALG.
