Subject: [PATCH 5.4 01/17] crypto: qcom-rng - ensure buffer for generate is completely filled
From: Brian Masney <bmasney@...hat.com>
commit a680b1832ced3b5fa7c93484248fd221ea0d614b upstream.
The generate function in struct rng_alg expects that the destination
buffer is completely filled if the function returns 0. qcom_rng_read()
can run into a situation where the buffer is partially filled with
randomness and the remaining part of the buffer is zeroed since
qcom_rng_generate() doesn't check the return value. This issue can
be reproduced by running the following from libkcapi:
kcapi-rng -b 9000000 > OUTFILE
The generated OUTFILE will have three huge sections that contain all
zeros, and this is caused by the code where the test
'val & PRNG_STATUS_DATA_AVAIL' fails.
Let's fix this issue by ensuring that qcom_rng_read() always returns
with a full buffer if the function returns success. Let's also have
qcom_rng_generate() return the correct value.
Here's some statistics from the ent project
(https://www.fourmilab.ch/random/) that shows information about the
quality of the generated numbers:
$ ent -c qcom-random-before
Value Char Occurrences Fraction
0 606748 0.067416
1 33104 0.003678
2 33001 0.003667
...
253 � 32883 0.003654
254 � 33035 0.003671
255 � 33239 0.003693
Total: 9000000 1.000000
Entropy = 7.811590 bits per byte.
Optimum compression would reduce the size
of this 9000000 byte file by 2 percent.
Chi square distribution for 9000000 samples is 9329962.81, and
randomly would exceed this value less than 0.01 percent of the
times.
Arithmetic mean value of data bytes is 119.3731 (127.5 = random).
Monte Carlo value for Pi is 3.197293333 (error 1.77 percent).
Serial correlation coefficient is 0.159130 (totally uncorrelated =
0.0).
Without this patch, the results of the chi-square test is 0.01%, and
the numbers are certainly not random according to ent's project page.
The results improve with this patch:
$ ent -c qcom-random-after

255 � 35368 0.003930
Total: 9000000 1.000000
Entropy = 7.999979 bits per byte.
Optimum compression would reduce the size
of this 9000000 byte file by 0 percent.
Chi square distribution for 9000000 samples is 258.77, and randomly
would exceed this value 42.24 percent of the times.
Arithmetic mean value of data bytes is 127.5006 (127.5 = random).
Monte Carlo value for Pi is 3.141277333 (error 0.01 percent).
Serial correlation coefficient is 0.000468 (totally uncorrelated =
0.0).
This change was tested on a Nexus 5 phone (msm8974 SoC).
