This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled random: insist on random_get_entropy() existing in order to simplify to the 4.14-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: random-insist-on-random_get_entropy-existing-in-order-to-simplify.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.14 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From foo@baz Thu Jun 16 07:08:33 PM CEST 2022 From: "Jason A. Donenfeld" <Jason@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 12 Apr 2022 19:59:57 +0200 Subject: random: insist on random_get_entropy() existing in order to simplify From: "Jason A. Donenfeld" <Jason@xxxxxxxxx> commit 4b758eda851eb9336ca86a0041a4d3da55f66511 upstream. All platforms are now guaranteed to provide some value for random_get_entropy(). In case some bug leads to this not being so, we print a warning, because that indicates that something is really very wrong (and likely other things are impacted too). This should never be hit, but it's a good and cheap way of finding out if something ever is problematic. Since we now have viable fallback code for random_get_entropy() on all platforms, which is, in the worst case, not worse than jiffies, we can count on getting the best possible value out of it. That means there's no longer a use for using jiffies as entropy input. It also means we no longer have a reason for doing the round-robin register flow in the IRQ handler, which was always of fairly dubious value. Instead we can greatly simplify the IRQ handler inputs and also unify the construction between 64-bits and 32-bits. We now collect the cycle counter and the return address, since those are the two things that matter. Because the return address and the irq number are likely related, to the extent we mix in the irq number, we can just xor it into the top unchanging bytes of the return address, rather than the bottom changing bytes of the cycle counter as before. Then, we can do a fixed 2 rounds of SipHash/HSipHash. Finally, we use the same construction of hashing only half of the [H]SipHash state on 32-bit and 64-bit. We're not actually discarding any entropy, since that entropy is carried through until the next time. And more importantly, it lets us do the same sponge-like construction everywhere.
