Links get stale. It may be better to put an ascii version of the pdf in Documentation/ and the test code in tools/ and some trivial notes: > diff --git a/crypto/lrng.c b/crypto/lrng.c [] > +/* debug macro */ > +#define DRIVER_NAME "lrng" Using #define pr_fmt(fmt) KBUILD_MODNAME ": " fmt before any #include would be a lot more common. > +#if 0 > +#define dbg(fmt, ...) pr_info(DRIVER_NAME": " fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__) > +#else > +#define dbg(fmt, ...) > +#endif pr_debug or is there some interaction with dynamic_debug you want to avoid? And it's generally better to use something like #if 0 #define dbg(fmt, ...) pr_info(fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__) #else #define dbg(fmt, ...) no_printk(fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__) so that new dbg statements would not have format/argument mismatches and argument evaluation side-effects are still eliminated. > +static void lrng_pdrbg_init_ops(u32 entropy_bits) > +{ > + if (lrng_pdrbg.pdrbg_fully_seeded) > + return; > + > + BUILD_BUG_ON(LRNG_IRQ_MIN_NUM % LRNG_POOL_WORD_BITS); > + BUILD_BUG_ON((LRNG_MIN_SEED_ENTROPY_BITS * LRNG_IRQ_ENTROPY_BITS / > + LRNG_DRBG_SECURITY_STRENGTH_BITS) > LRNG_IRQ_MIN_NUM); > + > + /* DRBG is seeded with full security strength */ > + if (entropy_bits >= LRNG_DRBG_SECURITY_STRENGTH_BITS) { > + lrng_pdrbg.pdrbg_fully_seeded = true; > + lrng_pdrbg.pdrbg_min_seeded = true; > + pr_info(DRIVER_NAME": primary DRBG fully seeded\n"); Using pr_fmt eliminates the need for these DRIVER_NAME ": " prefix inclusions in the format > +static int __init lrng_init(void) > +{ [] > + pr_info(DRIVER_NAME": deactivating initial RNG - %d bytes delivered", > + atomic_read(&lrng_initrng_bytes)); Should use \n to terminate the format. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-crypto" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
