random: Add and use pr_fmt()

2020-01-07T22:07:30Z

Prefix all printk/pr_ messages with "random: " to make the logging a bit more consistent. Miscellanea: o Convert a printks to pr_notice o Whitespace to align to open parentheses o Remove embedded "random: " from pr_* as pr_fmt adds it Signed-off-by: Yangtao Li Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20190607182517.28266-3-tiny.windzz@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o

random: remove unnecessary unlikely()

2020-01-07T21:10:28Z

WARN_ON() already contains an unlikely(), so it's not necessary to use unlikely. Signed-off-by: Yangtao Li Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20190607182517.28266-1-tiny.windzz@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o

random: remove kernel.random.read_wakeup_threshold

2020-01-07T21:07:01Z

It has no effect any more, so remove it. We can revert this if there is some user code that expects to be able to set this sysctl. Signed-off-by: Andy Lutomirski Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/a74ed2cf0b5a5451428a246a9239f5bc4e29358f.1577088521.git.luto@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o

random: delete code to pull data into pools

2020-01-07T21:07:01Z

There is no pool that pulls, so it was just dead code. Signed-off-by: Andy Lutomirski Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/4a05fe0c7a5c831389ef4aea51d24528ac8682c7.1577088521.git.luto@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o

random: remove the blocking pool

2020-01-07T21:07:01Z

There is no longer any interface to read data from the blocking pool, so remove it. This enables quite a bit of code deletion, much of which will be done in subsequent patches.

random: make /dev/random be almost like /dev/urandom

2020-01-07T21:07:01Z

This patch changes the read semantics of /dev/random to be the same as /dev/urandom except that reads will block until the CRNG is ready. None of the cleanups that this enables have been done yet. As a result, this gives a warning about an unused function.

random: ignore GRND_RANDOM in getentropy(2)

2020-01-07T21:07:01Z

The separate blocking pool is going away. Start by ignoring GRND_RANDOM in getentropy(2). This should not materially break any API. Any code that worked without this change should work at least as well with this change.
