[PATCH v2] random: remove mostly unused async readiness notifier

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

 



The register_random_ready_notifier() notifier is somewhat complicated,
and was already recently rewritten to use notifier blocks. It is only
used now by one consumer in the kernel, vsprintf.c, for which the async
mechanism is really overly complex for what it actually needs. This
commit removes register_random_ready_notifier() and unregister_random_
ready_notifier(), because it just adds complication with little utility,
and changes vsprintf.c to just check on `!rng_is_initialized() &&
!rng_has_arch_random()`, which will eventually be true. Performance-
wise, that code was already using a static branch, so there's basically
no overhead at all to this change.

Changes v1->v2:
- Use a trylock instead of a spinlock to be NMI safe.
