The reworked version of the random device driver now calls the arch_get_random_* functions on a very high frequency. It does about 100.000 calls to arch_get_random_long for providing 10 MB via /dev/urandom. Each invocation was fetching entropy from the hardware random generator which has a rate limit of about 4 MB/s. As the trng invocation waits until enough entropy is gathered, the random device driver is slowed down dramatically. The s390 true random generator is not designed for such a high rate. The TRNG is more designed to be used together with the arch_get_random_seed_* functions. This is similar to the way how powerpc has implemented their arch random functionality. This patch removes the invocations of the s390 TRNG for arch_get_random_long() and arch_get_random_int() but leaving the invocations for arch_get_random_seed_long() and arch_get_random_seed_int(). So the s390 arch random implementation now contributes high quality entropy to the kernel random device for reseeding.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
