Merge branch 'net_get_random_once'
Hannes Frederic Sowa says: ==================== This series implements support for delaying the initialization of secret keys, e.g. used for hashing, for as long as possible. This functionality is implemented by a new macro, net_get_random_bytes. I already used it to protect the socket hashes, the syncookie secret (most important) and the tcp_fastopen secrets. Changelog: v2) Use static_keys in net_get_random_once to have as minimal impact to the fast-path as possible. v3) added patch "static_key: WARN on usage before jump_label_init was called": Patch "x86/jump_label: expect default_nop if static_key gets enabled on boot-up" relaxes the checks for using static_key primitives before jump_label_init. So tighten them first. v4) Update changelog on the patch "static_key: WARN on usage before jump_label_init was called" Included patches: ipv4: split inet_ehashfn to hash functions per compilation unit ipv6: split inet6_ehashfn to hash functions per compilation unit static_key: WARN on usage before jump_label_init was called x86/jump_label: expect default_nop if static_key gets enabled on boot-up net: introduce new macro net_get_random_once inet: split syncookie keys for ipv4 and ipv6 and initialize with net_get_random_once inet: convert inet_ehash_secret and ipv6_hash_secret to net_get_random_once tcp: switch tcp_fastopen key generation to net_get_random_once net: switch net_secret key generation to net_get_random_once ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
