From 18b915ac6b0ac5ba7ded03156860f60a9f16df2b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dominik Brodowski Date: Tue, 29 Oct 2019 18:37:52 +0100 Subject: efi/random: Treat EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL output as bootloader randomness Commit 428826f5358c ("fdt: add support for rng-seed") introduced add_bootloader_randomness(), permitting randomness provided by the bootloader or firmware to be credited as entropy. However, the fact that the UEFI support code was already wired into the RNG subsystem via a call to add_device_randomness() was overlooked, and so it was not converted at the same time. Note that this UEFI (v2.4 or newer) feature is currently only implemented for EFI stub booting on ARM, and further note that CONFIG_RANDOM_TRUST_BOOTLOADER must be enabled, and this should be done only if there indeed is sufficient trust in the bootloader _and_ its source of randomness.
