[PATCH v42 10/13] LRNG - add Jitter RNG fast noise source

Stephan Müller
2021-09-17T09:44:20Z

The Jitter RNG fast noise source implemented as part of the kernel
crypto API is queried for 256 bits of entropy at the time the seed
buffer managed by the LRNG is about to be filled.

+ The Linux RNG may use the Jitter RNG as noise source. Enabling
+ this option enables the use of the Jitter RNG. Its default
+ entropy level is 16 bits of entropy per 256 data bits delivered
+ by the Jitter RNG. This entropy level can be changed at boot
+ time or at runtime with the lrng_base.jitterrng configuration
+ variable.

+ help
+ The option defines the amount of entropy the LRNG applies to 256
+ bits of data obtained from the Jitter RNG entropy source. The
+ LRNG enforces the limit that this value must be in the range
+ between 0 and 256.
+
+ In order to disable the Jitter RNG entropy source, the option
+ has to be set to 0.
