s390/crypto: rework generate_entropy function for pseudo random dd 



Here is a rework of the generate_entropy function of the pseudo random
device driver exploiting the prno CPACF instruction.

George Spelvin pointed out some issues with the existing
implementation. One point was, that the buffer used to store the stckf
values is 2 pages which are initially filled with get_random_bytes()
for each 64 byte junk produced by the function. Another point was that
the stckf values only carry entropy in the LSB and thus a buffer of
2 pages is not really needed. Then there was a comment about the use
of the kimd cpacf function without proper initialization.

The rework addresses these points and now one page is used and only
one half of this is filled with get_random_bytes() on each chunk of 64
bytes requested data. The other half of the page is filled with stckf
values exored into with an overlap of 4 bytes. This can be done due to
the fact that only the lower 4 bytes carry entropy we need.  For more
details about the algorithm used, see the header of the function.

The generate_entropy() function now uses the cpacf function klmd with
proper initialization of the parameter block to perform the sha512
hash.

George also pointed out some issues with the internal buffers used for
seeding and reads. These buffers are now zeroed with memzero_implicit
after use.

/*

 * generate_entropy:

 * This algorithm produces 64 bytes of entropy data based on 1024

 * individual stckf() invocations assuming that each stckf() value

 * contributes 0.25 bits of entropy. So the caller gets 256 bit

 * entropy per 64 byte or 4 bits entropy per byte.

 * This function fills a given buffer with random bytes. The entropy within

 * the random bytes given back is assumed to have at least 50% - meaning

 * a 64 bytes buffer has at least 64 * 8 / 2 = 256 bits of entropy.

 * Within the function the entropy generation is done in junks of 64 bytes.

 * So the caller should also ask for buffer fill in multiples of 64 bytes.

 * The generation of the entropy is based on the assumption that every stckf()

 * invocation produces 0.5 bits of entropy. To accumulate 256 bits of entropy

 * at least 512 stckf() values are needed. The entropy relevant part of the

 * stckf value is bit 51 (counting starts at the left with bit nr 0) so

 * here we use the lower 4 bytes and exor the values into 2k of bufferspace.

 * To be on the save side, if there is ever a problem with stckf() the

 * other half of the page buffer is filled with bytes from urandom via

 * get_random_bytes(), so this function consumes 2k of urandom for each

 * requested 64 bytes output data. Finally the buffer page is condensed into

 * a 64 byte value by hashing with a SHA512 hash.
