From 59bcfd788552504606e3eb774ae68052379396b6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Stephan=20M=C3=BCller?= Date: Thu, 21 Sep 2023 13:48:33 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] crypto: jitter - Allow configuration of memory size The memory size consumed by the Jitter RNG is one contributing factor in the amount of entropy that is gathered. As the amount of entropy directly correlates with the distance of the memory from the CPU, the caches that are possibly present on a given system have an impact on the collected entropy. Thus, the kernel compile time should offer a means to configure the amount of memory used by the Jitter RNG. Although this option could be turned into a runtime option (e.g. a kernel command line option), it should remain a compile time option as otherwise adminsitrators who may not have performed an entropy assessment may select a value that is inappropriate. The default value selected by the configuration is identical to the current Jitter RNG value. Thus, the patch should not lead to any change in the Jitter RNG behavior. To accommodate larger memory buffers, kvzalloc / kvfree is used.
