We still don't use rdrand in /dev/random, which just seems stupid. We
accept the *cycle*counter* as a random input, but we don't accept
rdrand? That's just broken.Sure, people can do things in user space (write to /dev/random, use
rdrand in addition to /dev/random themselves etc etc), but that
*still* seems to be a particularly stupid reason for saying "we
shouldn't bother to try to do better in /dev/random".And even if somebody really doesn't trust rdrand as a source of random
bytes, it seems singularly stupid to trust the cycle counter *more*.So I'd suggest the attached patch. I'm not going to even bother
arguing that we should add more bits to the entropy estimate, because
that's not the point - I don't care if /dev/random fills up slowly or
not, I think it's just stupid to not use the bits we can get from
rdrand and mix them into the strong randomness pool.Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/CA%2B55aFwn59N1=m651QAyTy-1gO1noGbK18zwKDwvwqnravA84A@mail.gmail.com

On s390 I have seen some random
"Warning: unable to open an initial console"
boot failure. Turns out that tty_open fails, because the
hvc_alloc was not yet done. In former times this could not happen,
since the probe function automatically called hvc_alloc. With newer
versions (multiport) some hostguest interaction is required
before hvc_alloc is called. This might be too late, especially if
an initramfs is involved. Lets use a completion if we have
multiport and an early console.[Amit:

This commit adds port-specific stats for the number of bytes received,
sent and discarded. They're exposed via the debugfs interface. This
data can be used to check for data loss bugs (or disprove such claims).
It can also be used for accounting, if there's such a need.The stats remain valid throughout the lifetime of the port. Unplugging
a port will reset the stats. The numbers are not reset across port
opens/closes.Signed-off-by: Amit Shah
Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell -
discard_port_data() used virtqueue_get_buf() directly instead of using
get_inbuf(). Fix this, so that we get accounting for all received
bytes. This also simplifies the code a lot.Signed-off-by: Amit Shah
Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell -
'ret' is a misnomer in discard_port_data() since we don't return the
value. Rename it to 'err'.
Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell -
Instead of pulling in a buffer from the vq each time it's called,
get_inbuf() now checks if the current active buffer, in port->inbuf is
valid. If it is, just returns a pointer to it. This ends up
simplifying a lot of code calling get_inbuf() since the check for
port->inbuf being valid was done by all the callers.Signed-off-by: Amit Shah
Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell -
get_inbuf() returns void *. There's no reason to return void pointers
instead of the correct struct port_buffer *.Signed-off-by: Amit Shah

Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell -
We don't allow port name changes dynamically for a port. So any
requests by the host to change the name are ignored.Before this patch, if the hypervisor sent a port name while we had one
set already, we would leak memory equivalent to the size of the old
name.This scenario wasn't expected so far, but with the suspend-resume
support, we'll send the VIRTIO_CONSOLE_PORT_READY message after restore,
which can get us into this situation.Signed-off-by: Amit Shah
