Subject: [GIT PULL] random number generator updates for 6.1-rc1, part 2
Hi Linus,
As mentioned earlier this week, here is part 2 of the RNG fixes for 6.1, this
time with some large scale treewide cleanups. Hopefully sending this to you at
this point in the merge window takes care of any potential conflicts. As of
about 10 minutes ago, this should merge cleanly.
The intent of this pull is to cleanup the way callers fetch random integers.
The current rules for doing this right are:
- If you want a secure or an insecure random u64, use get_random_u64().
- If you want a secure or an insecure random u32, use get_random_u32().
* The old function prandom_u32() has been deprecated for a while now
and is just a wrapper around get_random_u32(). Same for
get_random_int().
- If you want a secure or an insecure random u16, use get_random_u16().
- If you want a secure or an insecure random u8, use get_random_u8().
- If you want secure or insecure random bytes, use get_random_bytes().
* The old function prandom_bytes() has been deprecated for a while now
and has long been a wrapper around get_random_bytes().
- If you want a non-uniform random u32, u16, or u8 bounded by a certain
open interval maximum, use prandom_u32_max().
* I say "non-uniform", because it doesn't do any rejection sampling or
divisions. Hence, it stays within the prandom_*() namespace, not the
get_random_*() namespace.
* I'm currently investigating a "uniform" function for 6.2. We'll see
what comes of that.
By applying these rules uniformly, we get several benefits:
- By using prandom_u32_max() with an upper-bound that the compiler can
prove at compile-time is ≤65536 or ≤256, internally get_random_u16()
or get_random_u8() is used, which wastes fewer batched random bytes,
and hence has higher throughput.
- By using prandom_u32_max() instead of %, when the upper-bound is not a
constant, division is still avoided, because prandom_u32_max() uses
a faster multiplication-based trick instead.
- By using get_random_u16() or get_random_u8() in cases where the return
value is intended to indeed be a u16 or a u8, we waste fewer batched
random bytes, and hence have higher throughput.
This series was originally done by hand while I was on an airplane without
Internet. Later, Kees and I worked on retroactively figuring out what could be
done with Coccinelle and what had to be done manually, and then we split
things up based on that. So, while this touches a lot of files, the actual
amount of code that's hand fiddled is comfortably small.
Please pull.
Thanks,
Jason
