Subject: [PATCH 1/2] random: fix locking in crng_fast_load()
Date: Sat,  5 Feb 2022 11:34:57 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220205103458.133386-2-linux@dominikbrodowski.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220205103458.133386-1-linux@dominikbrodowski.net>

crng_init is protected by primary_crng->lock, so keep holding that lock
when incrementing crng_init from 0 to 1 in crng_fast_load(). The call to
pr_notice() can wait until the lock is released; this code path cannot
be reached twice, as crng_fast_load() aborts early if crng_init > 0.
