There are other patches pending my review that take the current NUMA initialization code to yet another layer of complexity, sort of driving home the point to me that the current code is a can of worms. This patchset attempts a different direction there. - Enforcing "fast key erasure" expansion always, and not relying on having a shared block counter that is bound to lead to troubles sooner or later. - Nearly eliminating lock contention when several processes use the rng at the same time. WireGuard, for example, processes packets in parallel on all threads, and this packet processing requires frequent calls to get_random_bytes(). Because one design choice in here affects others, these issues are tackled by this same patchset. It's roughly divided into "things with RDSEED" and "things with struct crng", with the ordering of commits being important. Finally the series ends with a one-off patch removing an obsolete limit on /dev/urandom. Cc: Theodore Ts'o Cc: Dominik Brodowski Jason A.
