Merge tag 'random_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/random

Pull random updates from Ted Ts'o:
 "Add wait_for_random_bytes() and get_random_*_wait() functions so that
  callers can more safely get random bytes if they can block until the
  CRNG is initialized.

  Also print a warning if get_random_*() is called before the CRNG is
  initialized. By default, only one single-line warning will be printed
  per boot. If CONFIG_WARN_ALL_UNSEEDED_RANDOM is defined, then a
  warning will be printed for each function which tries to get random
  bytes before the CRNG is initialized. This can get spammy for certain
  architecture types, so it is not enabled by default"

Some parts of the kernel contain bugs relating to their use of
cryptographically secure random numbers before it's actually possible
to generate those numbers securely. This setting ensures that these
flaws don't go unnoticed, by enabling a message, should this ever
occur. This will allow people with obscure setups to know when things
are going wrong, so that they might contact developers about fixing
it.
Unfortunately, on some models of some architectures getting
a fully seeded CRNG is extremely difficult, and so this can
result in dmesg getting spammed for a surprisingly long
time. This is really bad from a security perspective, and
so architecture maintainers really need to do what they can
to get the CRNG seeded sooner after the system is booted.
However, since users can not do anything actionble to
address this, by default the kernel will issue only a single
warning for the first use of unseeded randomness.
Say Y here if you want to receive warnings for all uses of
unseeded randomness. This will be of use primarily for
those developers interersted in improving the security of
Linux kernels running on their architecture (or
subarchitecture).
