Daniel Cashman ec9ee4acd9 drivers: char: random: add get_random_long()
Commit d07e22597d ("mm: mmap: add new /proc tunable for mmap_base
ASLR") added the ability to choose from a range of values to use for
entropy count in generating the random offset to the mmap_base address.

The maximum value on this range was set to 32 bits for 64-bit x86
systems, but this value could be increased further, requiring more than
the 32 bits of randomness provided by get_random_int(), as is already
possible for arm64.  Add a new function: get_random_long() which more
naturally fits with the mmap usage of get_random_int() but operates
exactly the same as get_random_int().

Also, fix the shifting constant in mmap_rnd() to be an unsigned long so
that values greater than 31 bits generate an appropriate mask without
overflow.  This is especially important on x86, as its shift instruction
uses a 5-bit mask for the shift operand, which meant that any value for
mmap_rnd_bits over 31 acts as a no-op and effectively disables mmap_base
randomization.

Finally, replace calls to get_random_int() with get_random_long() where
appropriate.

This patch (of 2):

Add get_random_long().

Herbert Xu 205a525c33 random: Add callback API for random pool readiness
The get_blocking_random_bytes API is broken because the wait can
be arbitrarily long (potentially forever) so there is no safe way
of calling it from within the kernel.

This patch replaces it with a callback API instead.  The callback
is invoked potentially from interrupt context so the user needs
to schedule their own work thread if necessary.

In addition to adding callbacks, they can also be removed as
otherwise this opens up a way for user-space to allocate kernel
memory with no bound (by opening algif_rng descriptors and then
closing them).

George Spelvin 19acc77a36 random: Fix fast_mix() function
There was a bad typo in commit 43759d4f42 ("random: use an improved
fast_mix() function") and I didn't notice because it "looked right", so
I saw what I expected to see when I reviewed it.

Only months later did I look and notice it's not the Threefish-inspired
mix function that I had designed and optimized.

Mea Culpa.  Each input bit still has a chance to affect each output bit,
and the fast pool is spilled *long* before it fills, so it's not a total
disaster, but it's definitely not the intended great improvement.

I'm still working on finding better rotation constants.  These are good
enough, but since it's unrolled twice, it's possible to get better
mixing for free by using eight different constants rather than repeating
the same four.

Daniel Borkmann d4c5efdb97 random: add and use memzero_explicit() for clearing data
zatimend has reported that in his environment (3.16/gcc4.8.3/corei7)
memset() calls which clear out sensitive data in extract_{buf,entropy,
entropy_user}() in random driver are being optimized away by gcc.

Add a helper memzero_explicit() (similarly as explicit_bzero() variants)
that can be used in such cases where a variable with sensitive data is
being cleared out in the end. Other use cases might also be in crypto
code. [ I have put this into lib/string.c though, as it's always built-in
and doesn't need any dependencies then. ]

Theodore Ts'o 48d6be955a random: limit the contribution of the hw rng to at most half
For people who don't trust a hardware RNG which can not be audited,
the changes to add support for RDSEED can be troubling since 97% or
more of the entropy will be contributed from the in-CPU hardware RNG.

We now have a in-kernel khwrngd, so for those people who do want to
implicitly trust the CPU-based system, we could create an arch-rng
hw_random driver, and allow khwrng refill the entropy pool.  This
allows system administrator whether or not they trust the CPU (I
assume the NSA will trust RDRAND/RDSEED implicitly :-), and if so,
what level of entropy derating they want to use.

The reason why this is a really good idea is that if different people
use different levels of entropy derating, it will make it much more
difficult to design a backdoor'ed hwrng that can be generally
exploited in terms of the output of /dev/random when different attack
targets are using differing levels of entropy derating.

Theodore Ts'o c6e9d6f388 random: introduce getrandom(2) system call
The getrandom(2) system call was requested by the LibreSSL Portable
developers.  It is analoguous to the getentropy(2) system call in
OpenBSD.

The rationale of this system call is to provide resiliance against
file descriptor exhaustion attacks, where the attacker consumes all
available file descriptors, forcing the use of the fallback code where
/dev/[u]random is not available.  Since the fallback code is often not
well-tested, it is better to eliminate this potential failure mode
entirely.

The other feature provided by this new system call is the ability to
request randomness from the /dev/urandom entropy pool, but to block
until at least 128 bits of entropy has been accumulated in the
/dev/urandom entropy pool.  Historically, the emphasis in the
/dev/urandom development has been to ensure that urandom pool is
initialized as quickly as possible after system boot, and preferably
before the init scripts start execution.

This is because changing /dev/urandom reads to block represents an
interface change that could potentially break userspace which is not
acceptable.  In practice, on most x86 desktop and server systems, in
general the entropy pool can be initialized before it is needed (and
in modern kernels, we will printk a warning message if not).  However,
on an embedded system, this may not be the case.  And so with this new
interface, we can provide the functionality of blocking until the
urandom pool has been initialized.  Any userspace program which uses
this new functionality must take care to assure that if it is used
during the boot process, that it will not cause the init scripts or
other portions of the system startup to hang indefinitely.

SYNOPSIS
	#include <linux/random.h>

	int getrandom(void *buf, size_t buflen, unsigned int flags);

DESCRIPTION
	The system call getrandom() fills the buffer pointed to by buf
	with up to buflen random bytes which can be used to seed user
	space random number generators (i.e., DRBG's) or for other
	cryptographic uses.  It should not be used for Monte Carlo
	simulations or other programs/algorithms which are doing
	probabilistic sampling.

	If the GRND_RANDOM flags bit is set, then draw from the
	/dev/random pool instead of the /dev/urandom pool.  The
	/dev/random pool is limited based on the entropy that can be
	obtained from environmental noise, so if there is insufficient
	entropy, the requested number of bytes may not be returned.
	If there is no entropy available at all, getrandom(2) will
	either block, or return an error with errno set to EAGAIN if
	the GRND_NONBLOCK bit is set in flags.

	If the GRND_RANDOM bit is not set, then the /dev/urandom pool
	will be used.  Unlike using read(2) to fetch data from
	/dev/urandom, if the urandom pool has not been sufficiently
	initialized, getrandom(2) will block (or return -1 with the
	errno set to EAGAIN if the GRND_NONBLOCK bit is set in flags).

	The getentropy(2) system call in OpenBSD can be emulated using
	the following function:

            int getentropy(void *buf, size_t buflen)
            {
                    int     ret;

                    if (buflen > 256)
                            goto failure;
                    ret = getrandom(buf, buflen, 0);
                    if (ret < 0)
                            return ret;
                    if (ret == buflen)
                            return 0;
            failure:
                    errno = EIO;
                    return -1;
            }

RETURN VALUE
       On success, the number of bytes that was filled in the buf is
       returned.  This may not be all the bytes requested by the
       caller via buflen if insufficient entropy was present in the
       /dev/random pool, or if the system call was interrupted by a
       signal.

       On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set appropriately.

ERRORS
	EINVAL		An invalid flag was passed to getrandom(2)

	EFAULT		buf is outside the accessible address space.

	EAGAIN		The requested entropy was not available, and
			getentropy(2) would have blocked if the
			GRND_NONBLOCK flag was not set.

	EINTR		While blocked waiting for entropy, the call was
			interrupted by a signal handler; see the description
			of how interrupted read(2) calls on "slow" devices
			are handled with and without the SA_RESTART flag
			in the signal(7) man page.

NOTES
	For small requests (buflen <= 256) getrandom(2) will not
	return EINTR when reading from the urandom pool once the
	entropy pool has been initialized, and it will return all of
	the bytes that have been requested.  This is the recommended
	way to use getrandom(2), and is designed for compatibility
	with OpenBSD's getentropy() system call.

	However, if you are using GRND_RANDOM, then getrandom(2) may
	block until the entropy accounting determines that sufficient
	environmental noise has been gathered such that getrandom(2)
	will be operating as a NRBG instead of a DRBG for those people
	who are working in the NIST SP 800-90 regime.  Since it may
	block for a long time, these guarantees do *not* apply.  The
	user may want to interrupt a hanging process using a signal,
	so blocking until all of the requested bytes are returned
	would be unfriendly.

	For this reason, the user of getrandom(2) MUST always check
	the return value, in case it returns some error, or if fewer
	bytes than requested was returned.  In the case of
	!GRND_RANDOM and small request, the latter should never
	happen, but the careful userspace code (and all crypto code
	should be careful) should check for this anyway!

	Finally, unless you are doing long-term key generation (and
	perhaps not even then), you probably shouldn't be using
	GRND_RANDOM.  The cryptographic algorithms used for
	/dev/urandom are quite conservative, and so should be
	sufficient for all purposes.  The disadvantage of GRND_RANDOM
	is that it can block, and the increased complexity required to
	deal with partially fulfilled getrandom(2) requests.

Theodore Ts'o ee3e00e9e7 random: use registers from interrupted code for CPU's w/o a cycle counter
For CPU's that don't have a cycle counter, or something equivalent
which can be used for random_get_entropy(), random_get_entropy() will
always return 0.  In that case, substitute with the saved interrupt
registers to add a bit more unpredictability.

Some folks have suggested hashing all of the registers
unconditionally, but this would increase the overhead of
add_interrupt_randomness() by at least an order of magnitude, and this
would very likely be unacceptable.

The changes in this commit have been benchmarked as mostly unaffecting
the overhead of add_interrupt_randomness() if the entropy counter is
present, and doubling the overhead if it is not present.

Theodore Ts'o e33ba5fa7a random: fix nasty entropy accounting bug
Commit 0fb7a01af5 "random: simplify accounting code", introduced in
v3.15, has a very nasty accounting problem when the entropy pool has
has fewer bytes of entropy than the number of requested reserved
bytes.  In that case, "have_bytes - reserved" goes negative, and since
size_t is unsigned, the expression:

       ibytes = min_t(size_t, ibytes, have_bytes - reserved);

... does not do the right thing.  This is rather bad, because it
defeats the catastrophic reseeding feature in the
xfer_secondary_pool() path.

It also can cause the "BUG: spinlock trylock failure on UP" for some
kernel configurations when prandom_reseed() calls get_random_bytes()
in the early init, since when the entropy count gets corrupted,
credit_entropy_bits() erroneously believes that the nonblocking pool
has been fully initialized (when in fact it is not), and so it calls
prandom_reseed(true) recursively leading to the spinlock BUG.

The logic is *not* the same it was originally, but in the cases where
it matters, the behavior is the same, and the resulting code is
hopefully easier to read and understand.

Pull block core updates from Jens Axboe:
 "It's a big(ish) round this time, lots of development effort has gone
  into blk-mq in the last 3 months.  Generally we're heading to where
  3.16 will be a feature complete and performant blk-mq.  scsi-mq is
  progressing nicely and will hopefully be in 3.17.  A nvme port is in
  progress, and the Micron pci-e flash driver, mtip32xx, is converted
  and will be sent in with the driver pull request for 3.16.

  This pull request contains:

   - Lots of prep and support patches for scsi-mq have been integrated.
     All from Christoph.

   - API and code cleanups for blk-mq from Christoph.

   - Lots of good corner case and error handling cleanup fixes for
     blk-mq from Ming Lei.

   - A flew of blk-mq updates from me:

     * Provide strict mappings so that the driver can rely on the CPU
       to queue mapping.  This enables optimizations in the driver.

     * Provided a bitmap tagging instead of percpu_ida, which never
       really worked well for blk-mq.  percpu_ida relies on the fact
       that we have a lot more tags available than we really need, it
       fails miserably for cases where we exhaust (or are close to
       exhausting) the tag space.

     * Provide sane support for shared tag maps, as utilized by scsi-mq

     * Various fixes for IO timeouts.

     * API cleanups, and lots of perf tweaks and optimizations.

   - Remove 'buffer' from struct request.  This is ancient code, from
     when requests were always virtually mapped.  Kill it, to reclaim
     some space in struct request.  From me.

   - Remove 'magic' from blk_plug.  Since we store these on the stack
     and since we've never caught any actual bugs with this, lets just
     get rid of it.  From me.

   - Only call part_in_flight() once for IO completion, as includes two
     atomic reads.  Hopefully we'll get a better implementation soon, as
     the part IO stats are now one of the more expensive parts of doing
     IO on blk-mq.  From me.

   - File migration of block code from {mm,fs}/ to block/.  This
     includes bio.c, bio-integrity.c, bounce.c, and ioprio.c.  From me,
     from a discussion on lkml.

  That should describe the meat of the pull request.  Also has various
  little fixes and cleanups from Dave Jones, Shaohua Li, Duan Jiong,
  Fengguang Wu, Fabian Frederick, Randy Dunlap, Robert Elliott, and Sam

Use arch_get_random_seed*() in two places in the Linux random
driver (drivers/char/random.c):

1. During entropy pool initialization, use RDSEED in favor of RDRAND,
   with a fallback to the latter.  Entropy exhaustion is unlikely to
   happen there on physical hardware as the machine is single-threaded
   at that point, but could happen in a virtual machine.  In that
   case, the fallback to RDRAND will still provide more than adequate
   entropy pool initialization.

2. Once a second, issue RDSEED and, if successful, feed it to the
   entropy pool.  To ensure an extra layer of security, only credit
   half the entropy just in case.

Greg Price 0fb7a01af5 random: simplify accounting code
With this we handle "reserved" in just one place.  As a bonus the
code becomes less nested, and the "wakeup_write" flag variable
becomes unnecessary.  The variable "flags" was already unused.

This code behaves identically to the previous version except in
two pathological cases that don't occur.  If the argument "nbytes"
is already less than "min", then we didn't previously enforce
"min".  If r->limit is false while "reserved" is nonzero, then we
previously applied "reserved" in checking whether we had enough
bits, even though we don't apply it to actually limit how many we
take.  The callers of account() never exercise either of these cases.

Before the previous commit, it was possible for "nbytes" to be less
than "min" if userspace chose a pathological configuration, but no
longer.

Greg Price 8c2aa3390e random: tighten bound on random_read_wakeup_thresh
We use this value in a few places other than its literal meaning,
in particular in _xfer_secondary_pool() as a minimum number of
bits to pull from the input pool at a time into either output
pool.  It doesn't make sense to pull more bits than the whole size
of an output pool.

We could and possibly should separate the quantities "how much
should the input pool have to have to wake up /dev/random readers"
and "how much should we transfer from the input to an output pool
at a time", but nobody is likely to be sad they can't set the first
quantity to more than 1024 bits, so for now just limit them both.

Hannes Frederic Sowa 4af712e8df random32: add prandom_reseed_late() and call when nonblocking pool becomes initialized
The Tausworthe PRNG is initialized at late_initcall time. At that time the
entropy pool serving get_random_bytes is not filled sufficiently. This
patch adds an additional reseeding step as soon as the nonblocking pool
gets marked as initialized.

On some machines it might be possible that late_initcall gets called after
the pool has been initialized. In this situation we won't reseed again.

(A call to prandom_seed_late blocks later invocations of early reseed
attempts.)

Since we initialize jiffies to wrap five minutes before boot (see

make sure the last_time field is initialized to INITIAL_JIFFIES.

Theodore Ts'o ae9ecd92dd random: don't zap entropy count in rand_initialize()
The rand_initialize() function was being run fairly late in the kernel
boot sequence.  This was unfortunate, since it zero'ed the entropy
counters, thus throwing away credit that was accumulated earlier in
the boot sequence, and it also meant that initcall functions run
before rand_initialize were using a minimally initialized pool.

To fix this, fix init_std_data() to no longer zap the entropy counter;
it wasn't necessary, and move rand_initialize() to be an early
initcall.

Theodore Ts'o 40db23e533 random: make add_timer_randomness() fill the nonblocking pool first
Change add_timer_randomness() so that it directs incoming entropy to
the nonblocking pool first if it hasn't been fully initialized yet.
This matches the strategy we use in add_interrupt_randomness(), which
allows us to push the randomness where we need it the most during when
the system is first booting up, so that get_random_bytes() and
/dev/urandom become safe to use as soon as possible.
