However, add_interrupt_randomness(), add_disk_randomness() and add_input_randomness() are clearly not independent and an upcoming patch will make the latter two to stop contributing any entropy to the global balance if fips_enabled is on. With the current parameter settings, it can be assumed that add_disk_randomness() resp. add_input_randomness() are the dominating contributors to the overall entropy reserve for some common workloads: both more or less estimate the entropy per event to equal the width of the minimum out of the first, second and third jiffes deltas to the previous occurrence. add_interrupt_randomness() on the other hand only attributes one single bit entropy to a full batch of 64 IRQ events (or once a second if that completes earlier). Thus, the upcoming exclusion of two potent entropy sources should somehow be compensated for. Stephan Müller worked around this very problem in his "LRNG" proposal ([1]) by increasing the entropy estimate per IRQ event. Namely, in case a get_cycles() with instruction granularity is available, he estimated one bit of entropy per IRQ event and (IIRC) 1/10 bits otherwise. I haven't tested this claim myself, in particular not on smaller devices. But for the sake of moving the development of this RFC series forward, I'll assume it as granted and hereby postulate that The lower eight bits of the differences between get_cycles() from two successive IRQ events on the same CPU carry - one bit of min-entropy in case a get_cycles() with instruction granularity is available and - 1/8 bit of min-entropy in case get_cycles() is still non-trivial, but has a lower resolution. In particular this is assumed to be true for highly periodic interrupts like those issued for e.g. USB microframes and on all supported architectures. In the former case, the underlying source of randomness is believed to follow the same principles as for the Jitter RNGs resp. try_to_generate_entropy(): diffences in RAM vs. CPU clockings and unpredictability of cache states to a certain extent. Notes: - NIST SP800-90B requires a means to access raw samples for validation purposes. Implementation of such an interface is deliberately not part of this RFC series here, but would necessarily be subject of future work. So there would be a means to at least validate these assumptions. - The choice of 1/8 over the 1/10 from the LRNG patchset has been made because it's a power of two and I suppose that the estimate of 1/10 had been quite arbitrary anyway. Replacement of the 1/8 by smaller powers of two down to 1/64 will be supported throughout this patch series. Some health tests as required by NIST SP800-90B will be implemented later in this series. In order to allow for dynamically decreasing the assessed entropy on a per-CPU basis upon health test failures, make it an attibute of the per-CPU struct fast_pool. That is, introduce a new integer field ->event_entropy_shift to struct fast_pool. The estimated entropy per IRQ sample will be calculated as 2^-event_entropy_shift. Initialize it statically with -1 to indicate that runtime initialization hasn't happened yet. Introduce fast_pool_init_accounting() which gets called unconditionally from add_interrupt_randomness() for doing the necessary runtime initializations once, i.e. if ->event_entropy_shift is still found to be negative. Implement it with the help of the also new min_irq_event_entropy_shift(), which will return the initial ->event_entropy_shift value as determined according to the rules from above. That is, depending on the have_highres_cycle_ctr, the result is eiher zero or three. Note that have_highres_cycle_ctr will only get properly initialized from rand_initialize() if fips_enabled is set, but ->event_entropy_shift will also only ever get accessed in this case. Finally, for the case tha fips_enabled is set, make add_interrupt_randomness() to estimate the amount of entropy transferred from the fast_pool into the global input_pool as fast_pool_entropy(->count, ->event_entropy_shift), rather than only one single bit. Remember that fast_pool_entropy() calculates the amount of entropy contained in a fast_pool, based on the total number of events mixed into it and the estimated entropy per event.
