-Subject: random32: update the net random state on interrupt and activity
-
-From: Willy Tarreau <w@1wt.eu>
-
-commit f227e3ec3b5cad859ad15666874405e8c1bbc1d4 upstream.
-
-This modifies the first 32 bits out of the 128 bits of a random CPU's
-net_rand_state on interrupt or CPU activity to complicate remote
-observations that could lead to guessing the network RNG's internal
-state.
-
-Note that depending on some network devices' interrupt rate moderation
-or binding, this re-seeding might happen on every packet or even almost
-never.
-
-In addition, with NOHZ some CPUs might not even get timer interrupts,
-leaving their local state rarely updated, while they are running
-networked processes making use of the random state. For this reason, we
-also perform this update in update_process_times() in order to at least
-update the state when there is user or system activity, since it's the
-only case we care about.
