2012-07-14random: add new get_random_bytes_arch() functionTheodore Ts'o
Create a new function, get_random_bytes_arch() which will use the architecture-specific hardware random number generator if it is present. Change get_random_bytes() to not use the HW RNG, even if it is avaiable. The reason for this is that the hw random number generator is fast (if it is present), but it requires that we trust the hardware manufacturer to have not put in a back door. (For example, an increasing counter encrypted by an AES key known to the NSA.) It's unlikely that Intel (for example) was paid off by the US Government to do this, but it's impossible for them to prove otherwise --- especially since Bull Mountain is documented to use AES as a whitener. Hence, the output of an evil, trojan-horse version of RDRAND is statistically indistinguishable from an RDRAND implemented to the specifications claimed by Intel. Short of using a tunnelling electronic microscope to reverse engineer an Ivy Bridge chip and disassembling and analyzing the CPU microcode, there's no way for us to tell for sure. Since users of get_random_bytes() in the Linux kernel need to be able to support hardware systems where the HW RNG is not present, most time-sensitive users of this interface have already created their own cryptographic RNG interface which uses get_random_bytes() as a seed. So it's much better to use the HW RNG to improve the existing random number generator, by mixing in any entropy returned by the HW RNG into /dev/random's entropy pool, but to always _use_ /dev/random's entropy pool. This way we get almost of the benefits of the HW RNG without any potential liabilities. The only benefits we forgo is the speed/performance enhancements --- and generic kernel code can't depend on depend on get_random_bytes() having the speed of a HW RNG anyway. For those places that really want access to the arch-specific HW RNG, if it is available, we provide get_random_bytes_arch(). Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
2012-07-14random: use the arch-specific rng in xfer_secondary_poolTheodore Ts'o
If the CPU supports a hardware random number generator, use it in xfer_secondary_pool(), where it will significantly improve things and where we can afford it. Also, remove the use of the arch-specific rng in add_timer_randomness(), since the call is significantly slower than get_cycles(), and we're much better off using it in xfer_secondary_pool() anyway.

2012-07-14random: create add_device_randomness() interfaceLinus Torvalds
Add a new interface, add_device_randomness() for adding data to the random pool that is likely to differ between two devices (or possibly even per boot). This would be things like MAC addresses or serial numbers, or the read-out of the RTC. This does *not* add any actual entropy to the pool, but it initializes the pool to different values for devices that might otherwise be identical and have very little entropy available to them (particularly common in the embedded world). [ Modified by tytso to mix in a timestamp, since there may be some variability caused by the time needed to detect/configure the hardware in question. ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
2012-07-14random: use lockless techniques in the interrupt pathTheodore Ts'o
The real-time Linux folks don't like add_interrupt_randomness() taking a spinlock since it is called in the low-level interrupt routine. This also allows us to reduce the overhead in the fast path, for the random driver, which is the interrupt collection path. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
2012-07-14random: make 'add_interrupt_randomness()' do something saneTheodore Ts'o
We've been moving away from add_interrupt_randomness() for various reasons: it's too expensive to do on every interrupt, and flooding the CPU with interrupts could theoretically cause bogus floods of entropy from a somewhat externally controllable source. This solves both problems by limiting the actual randomness addition to just once a second or after 64 interrupts, whicever comes first. During that time, the interrupt cycle data is buffered up in a per-cpu pool. Also, we make sure the the nonblocking pool used by urandom is initialized before we start feeding the normal input pool. This assures that /dev/urandom is returning unpredictable data as soon as possible. (Based on an original patch by Linus, but significantly modified by tytso.)

2012-06-30acpi_pad: fix power_saving thread deadlockStuart Hayes
The acpi_pad driver can get stuck in destroy_power_saving_task() waiting for kthread_stop() to stop a power_saving thread. The problem is that the isolated_cpus_lock mutex is owned when destroy_power_saving_task() calls kthread_stop(), which waits for a power_saving thread to end, and the power_saving thread tries to acquire the isolated_cpus_lock when it calls round_robin_cpu().

2012-06-29printk: flush continuation lines immediately to consoleKay Sievers
Continuation lines are buffered internally, intended to merge the chunked printk()s into a single record, and to isolate potentially racy continuation users from usual terminated line users. This though, has the effect that partial lines are not printed to the console in the moment they are emitted. In case the kernel crashes in the meantime, the potentially interesting printed information would never reach the consoles. Here we share the continuation buffer with the console copy logic, and partial lines are always immediately flushed to the available consoles. They are still buffered internally to improve the readability and integrity of the messages and minimize the amount of needed record headers to store.

The bug was introduced back in the lazy interrupt handling rework of 3.4 but was hidden until recently because hard_irq_disable did nothing. This issue will eventually appear in 3.4 stable since the hard_irq_disable fix is marked stable, so mark this one for stable too.

2012-06-29powerpc/ftrace: Do not trace restore_interrupts()Steven Rostedt
As I was adding code that affects all archs, I started testing function tracer against PPC64 and found that it currently locks up with 3.4 kernel. I figured it was due to tracing a function that shouldn't be, so I went through the following process to bisect to find the culprit: cat /debug/tracing/available_filter_functions > t num=`wc -l t` sed -ne "1,${num}p" t > t1 let num=num+1 sed -ne "${num},$p" t > t2 cat t1 > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter echo function /debug/tracing/current_tracer <failed? bisect t1, if not bisect t2> It finally came down to this function: restore_interrupts() I'm not sure why this locks up the system. It just seems to prevent scheduling from occurring. Interrupts seem to still work, as I can ping the box. But all user processes freeze. When restore_interrupts() is not traced, function tracing works fine.

In entry_64.S version of ret_from_except_lite, you'll notice that in the !preempt case, after we've checked MSR_PR we test for any TIF flag in _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK to decide whether to go to do_work or not. However, in the preempt case, we do a convoluted trick to test SIGPENDING only if PR was set and always test NEED_RESCHED ... but we forget to test any other bit of _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK !!! So that means that with preempt, we completely fail to test for things like single step, syscall tracing, etc... This should be fixed as the following path: - Test PR. If not set, go to resume_kernel, else continue. - If go resume_kernel, to do that original do_work. - If else, then always test for _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK to decide to do that original user_work, else restore directly.
