file_vault: version 23.05 * ARM support and detaching from Ada/SPARK * Remove all CBE-related code - especially the Ada/SPARK-based CBE library. * We have no means or motivation of further maintaining big projects in Ada/SPARK (the core Genode team is native to C++). * The Genode Ada/SPARK toolchain and runtime don't support ARM so far - an important architecture for Genode. This would mean extra commitment in Ada/SPARK. * We realize that block encryption more and more becomes a fundamental feature of Genode systems. * Implement a new block encryption library named Tresor that is inspired by the design and feature set of the former CBE library and that is entirely C++ and part of the Genode gems repository. * The Tresor block encryption is backwards-compatible with the on-disk data layout of the former CBE block encryption. * Except from the snapshot management and the "dump" tool, the Tresor block encryption provides the same feature set as the former CBE block encryption and accepts the same user requests at the level of the Tresor library API. * So far, the Tresor block encryption does not support the creation of user-defined snapshots. * In contrast to the former CBE, the Tresor ecosystem has no "dump" tool beause with the CBE library it turned out to be rarely of use. * In contrast to the Block back-end of the CBE "init" tool, the Tresor "init" tool uses a File System back-end. * The former CBE VFS-plugin is replaced with a new Tresor VFS-Plugin. * The Tresor-VFS plugin in general is similar to the former CBE VFS but has a slightly different API when it comes to re-keying and re-sizing. Each of these operations now is controlled via two files. The first file is named <operation> and the user writes the start command to it. The user must then read this file once in order to drive the operation. The read returns the result of the operation, once it is finished. The second file is named <operation>_progress and can be watched and read for obtaining the progress of the operation as percentage. * The file vault is adapted to use the new Tresor ecosystem instead of the former CBE ecosystem and thereby also gains ARM support. * The former CBE tester and CBE VFS-tests are replaced by equivalent Tresor variants and are now run on ARM as well (testing with a persistent storage back-end is supported only when running on Linux). * So far, the new Tresor block encryption has no internal cache for meta data blocks like the former CBE. * Add config/report user interface * Add a second option for the administration front end to the file vault named "config and report". With this front end the File Vault communicates with the user via XML strings. A ROM session is requested for user input and a Report session for user output. The front end type must be set at startup via the component config and is a static setting. The graphical front end that was used up to now is named "menu view" and remains the default. * The File Vault can now reflect its internal state and user input ("config and report" mode only) at the LOG session via two new static config attributes "verbose_state" and "verbose_ui_config" (both defaulting to "no"). * The Shutdown button in "menu view" mode is replaced with a Lock button. The new button doesn't terminate the File Vault but merely lock the encrypted container and return to a cleared passphrase input. The same transition is also provided in "config and report" mode. * The file_vault.run script is replaced with file_vault_menu_view.run and file_vault_cfg_report.run that address the two front end modes. In contrast to the former script, which is interactive, the latter script is suitable for automatic testing. * There is a new recipe/pkg/test-file_vault_cfg_report that essentially does the same as file_vault_cfg_report.run but uses the File Vault package and can be executed with the Depot Autopilot. The new test package is added to the default test list of depot_autopilot.run * The File Vault README is updated to the new version of the component and has gained a chapter "functional description". * Fixes a regression with the cbe_init_trust_anchor component that prevented reacting to a failed unlock attempt in the File Vault. * The new Tresor software Trust Anchor has an optional deterministic mode in which it replaces the normally randomized symmetric keys with 0. This mode comes in handy for debugging. However, it should never be activated in productive systems. When activated, the user is warned extensively on the LOG that this system mode is insecure.
