Pull random driver updates from Ted Ts'o: "A number of improvements for the /dev/random driver; the most important is the use of a ChaCha20-based CRNG for /dev/urandom, which is faster, more efficient, and easier to make scalable for silly/abusive userspace programs that want to read from /dev/urandom in a tight loop on NUMA systems. This set of patches also improves entropy gathering on VM's running on Microsoft Azure, and will take advantage of a hw random number generator (if present) to initialize the /dev/urandom pool" (It turns out that the random tree hadn't been in linux-next this time around, because it had been dropped earlier as being too quiet. Oh well). * tag 'random_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/random: random: strengthen input validation for RNDADDTOENTCNT random: add backtracking protection to the CRNG random: make /dev/urandom scalable for silly userspace programs random: replace non-blocking pool with a Chacha20-based CRNG random: properly align get_random_int_hash random: add interrupt callback to VMBus IRQ handler random: print a warning for the first ten uninitialized random users random: initialize the non-blocking pool via add_hwgenerator_randomness()

To allow for child request context the struct akcipher_request child_req needs to be at the end of the structure. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Tadeusz Struk Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: testmgr - Print akcipher algorithm name

2016-07-19T07:42:42+00:00

When an akcipher test fails, we don't know which algorithm failed because the name is not printed. This patch fixes this. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: scatterwalk - Inline start/map/done

2016-07-18T09:35:50+00:00

This patch inlines the functions scatterwalk_start, scatterwalk_map and scatterwalk_done as they're all tiny and mostly used by the block cipher walker. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: scatterwalk - Remove unnecessary BUG in scatterwalk_start

2016-07-18T09:35:50+00:00

Nothing bad will happen even if sg->length is zero, so there is no point in keeping this BUG_ON in scatterwalk_start. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: scatterwalk - Remove unnecessary advance in scatterwalk_pagedone

2016-07-18T09:35:50+00:00

The offset advance in scatterwalk_pagedone not only is unnecessary, but it was also buggy when it was needed by scatterwalk_copychunks. As the latter has long ago been fixed to call scatterwalk_advance directly, we can remove this unnecessary offset adjustment. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu
