Now that our crng uses chacha20, we can rely on its speedy characteristics for replacing MD5, while simultaneously achieving a higher security guarantee. Before the idea was to use these functions if you wanted random integers that aren't stupidly insecure but aren't necessarily secure either, a vague gray zone, that hopefully was "good enough" for its users. With chacha20, we can strengthen this claim, since either we're using an rdrand-like instruction, or we're using the same crng as /dev/urandom. And it's faster than what was before. We could have chosen to replace this with a SipHash-derived function, which might be slightly faster, but at the cost of having yet another RNG construction in the kernel. By moving to chacha20, we have a single RNG to analyze and verify, and we also already get good performance improvements on all platforms. Implementation-wise, rather than use a generic buffer for both get_random_int/long and memcpy based on the size needs, we use a specific buffer for 32-bit reads and for 64-bit reads. This way, we're guaranteed to always have aligned accesses on all platforms. While slightly more verbose in C, the assembly this generates is a lot simpler than otherwise. Finally, on 32-bit platforms where longs and ints are the same size, we simply alias get_random_int to get_random_long. Signed-off-by: Jason A.

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.
