[PATCH v2] random: early initialization of ChaCha constants

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Previously, the ChaCha constants for the primary pool were only
initialized in crng_initialize_primary(), called by rand_initialize().
However, some randomness is actually extracted from the primary pool
beforehand, e.g. by kmem_cache_create(). Therefore, statically
initialize the ChaCha constants for the primary pool.
