[RFC,30/41] random: add a queued_entropy instance to struct fast_pool

Commit Message

Nicolai Stange Sept. 21, 2020, 7:58 a.m. UTC

When health tests are introduced with upcoming patches, it will become
necessary to keep entropy queued across add_interrupt_randomness()
invocations for later dispatch to the global balance.

Prepare for this by adding a struct queued_entropy member to the per-CPU
fast_pool. Use it in place of that queue with automatic storage duration
in add_interrupt_randomness().
