From e1ea0e26d3e43a374695f56722f5be7ce5c9cd0e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Jason A. Donenfeld" Date: Fri, 8 Apr 2022 18:03:13 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] sparc: use fallback for random_get_entropy() instead of zero commit ac9756c79797bb98972736b13cfb239fd2cffb79 upstream. In the event that random_get_entropy() can't access a cycle counter or similar, falling back to returning 0 is really not the best we can do. Instead, at least calling random_get_entropy_fallback() would be preferable, because that always needs to return _something_, even falling back to jiffies eventually. It's not as though random_get_entropy_fallback() is super high precision or guaranteed to be entropic, but basically anything that's not zero all the time is better than returning zero all the time. This is accomplished by just including the asm-generic code like on other architectures, which means we can get rid of the empty stub function here. Cc: Thomas Gleixner Cc: Arnd Bergmann Cc: David S.
