Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 5.10 27/27] random: wake up /dev/random writers after zap
Date: Wed, 9 Feb 2022 13:41:03 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220209184103.47635-27-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220209184103.47635-1-sashal@kernel.org>
From: "Jason A. Donenfeld" <Jason@zx2c4.com>
[ Upstream commit 042e293e16e3aa9794ce60c29f5b7b0c8170f933 ]
When account() is called, and the amount of entropy dips below
random_write_wakeup_bits, we wake up the random writers, so that they
can write some more in. However, the RNDZAPENTCNT/RNDCLEARPOOL ioctl
sets the entropy count to zero -- a potential reduction just like
account() -- but does not unblock writers. This commit adds the missing
logic to that ioctl to unblock waiting writers.
