Subject: [PATCH] ath9k: feeding entropy in kernel from ADC capture
Date: Tue, 29 Sep 2015 10:28:00 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1443493680-8189-1-git-send-email-miaoqing@codeaurora.org> (raw)
From: Miaoqing Pan <miaoqing@codeaurora.org>
This patch is derived from
commit 6301566e0b2d ("ath9k: export HW random number generator"),
We evaluated the entropy of the ADC data on QCA9531, QCA9561, QCA955x,
and AR9340, and it has sufficient quality random data (at least 10 bits
and up to 22 bits of min-entropy for a 32-bit value). We conservatively
assume the min-entropy is 10 bits out of 32 bits. Thus, ATH9K_RNG_BUF_SIZE
is set to 320 (u32) i.e., 1.25 kilobytes of data is inserted to fill up
the pool as soon as the entropy counter becomes 896/4096 (set by random.c).
Since ADC was not designed to be a dedicated HW RNG, we do not want to bind
it to /dev/hwrng framework directly. This patch feeds the entropy directly
from the WiFi driver to the input pool. The ADC register output is only
used as a seed for the Linux entropy pool. No conditioning is needed,
since all the conditioning is performed by the pool itself.
