uml: random driver fixes The random driver would essentially hang if the host's /dev/random returned -EAGAIN. There was a test of need_resched followed by a schedule inside the loop, but that didn't help and it's the wrong way to work anyway. The right way is to ask for an interrupt when there is input available from the host and handle it then rather than polling. Now, when the host's /dev/random returns -EAGAIN, the driver asks for a wakeup when there's randomness available again and sleeps. The interrupt routine just wakes up whatever processes are sleeping on host_read_wait. There is an atomic_t, host_sleep_count, which counts the number of processes waiting for randomness. When this reaches zero, the interrupt is disabled. An added complication is that async I/O notification was only recently added to /dev/random (by me), so essentially all hosts will lack it. So, we use the sigio workaround here, which is to have a separate thread poll on the descriptor and send an interrupt when there is input on it. This mechanism is activated when a process gets -EAGAIN (activating this multiple times is harmless, if a bit wasteful) and deactivated by the last process still waiting. The module name was changed from "random" to "hw_random" in order for udev to recognize it. The sigio workaround needed some changes. sigio_broken was added for cases when we know that async notification doesn't work. This is now called from maybe_sigio_broken, which deals with pts devices.

um: random: Register random as hwrng-core device The UML random driver creates a dummy device under the guest, /dev/hw_random. When this file is read from the guest, the driver reads from the host machine's /dev/random, in-turn reading from the host kernel's entropy pool. This entropy pool could have been filled by a hardware random number generator or just the host kernel's internal software entropy generator. Currently the driver does not fill the guests kernel entropy pool, this requires a userspace tool running inside the guest (like rng-tools) to read from the dummy device provided by this driver, which then would fill the guest's internal entropy pool. This all seems quite pointless when we are already reading from an entropy pool, so this patch aims to register the device as a hwrng device using the hwrng-core framework. This not only improves and cleans up the driver, but also fills the guest's entropy pool without having to resort to using extra userspace tools in the guest. This is typically a nuisance when booting a guest: the random pool takes a long time (~200s) to build up enough entropy since the dummy hwrng is not used to fill the guest's pool. This port was originally attempted by Alexander Neville "dark" (in CC, discussion in Link), but the conversation there stalled since the handling of -EAGAIN errors were no removed and longer handled by the driver. This patch attempts to use the existing method of error handling but utilises the new hwrng core.

um: random: Register random as hwrng-core device The UML random driver creates a dummy device under the guest, /dev/hw_random. When this file is read from the guest, the driver reads from the host machine's /dev/random, in-turn reading from the host kernel's entropy pool. This entropy pool could have been filled by a hardware random number generator or just the host kernel's internal software entropy generator. Currently the driver does not fill the guests kernel entropy pool, this requires a userspace tool running inside the guest (like rng-tools) to read from the dummy device provided by this driver, which then would fill the guest's internal entropy pool. This all seems quite pointless when we are already reading from an entropy pool, so this patch aims to register the device as a hwrng device using the hwrng-core framework. This not only improves and cleans up the driver, but also fills the guest's entropy pool without having to resort to using extra userspace tools in the guest. This is typically a nuisance when booting a guest: the random pool takes a long time (~200s) to build up enough entropy since the dummy hwrng is not used to fill the guest's pool. This port was originally attempted by Alexander Neville "dark" (in CC, discussion in Link), but the conversation there stalled since the handling of -EAGAIN errors were no removed and longer handled by the driver.

uml: random driver fixes The random driver would essentially hang if the host's /dev/random returned -EAGAIN. There was a test of need_resched followed by a schedule inside the loop, but that didn't help and it's the wrong way to work anyway. The right way is to ask for an interrupt when there is input available from the host and handle it then rather than polling. Now, when the host's /dev/random returns -EAGAIN, the driver asks for a wakeup when there's randomness available again and sleeps. The interrupt routine just wakes up whatever processes are sleeping on host_read_wait. There is an atomic_t, host_sleep_count, which counts the number of processes waiting for randomness. When this reaches zero, the interrupt is disabled. An added complication is that async I/O notification was only recently added to /dev/random (by me), so essentially all hosts will lack it. So, we use the sigio workaround here, which is to have a separate thread poll on the descriptor and send an interrupt when there is input on it. This mechanism is activated when a process gets -EAGAIN (activating this multiple times is harmless, if a bit wasteful) and deactivated by the last process still waiting. The module name was changed from "random" to "hw_random" in order for udev to recognize it. The sigio workaround needed some changes. sigio_broken was added for cases when we know that async notification doesn't work. This is now called from maybe_sigio_broken, which deals with pts devices.
