[PATCH v3 0/4] Assorted changes for Exynos PRNG driver

[Åukasz Stelmach]

Hello,

This is a series of patches for exynos-rng driver I've decided to
create after adding support for Exynos5250+ chips. They do not
strictly depend on each other, but I think it is better to send them
as a single patch-set.

The driver requires appropriate DT configuration introduced in

    https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10106797/

Patch #1 Add support for PRNG in Exynos5250+ SoCs

Patch #2 Improve output performance by using memcpy() rather than a
custom function to retrieve random bytes from registers. Rearrange
the loop for polling the hardware.

Patch #3 Reseed the PRNG after reading 2^16 bytes. Simmilar approach
is implemented in DRBG. (Thanks Stephan Mueller)

Patch #4 Introduce locking to prevent simultaneous access to the
hardware from more than one thread/process.

Changes since v2:

- Remove changes in the loop polling the status register in
  exynos_rng_get_random(). Thanks Krzysztof KozÅowski.
- Remove the check for valid values of rng->type from
  exynos_rng_probe(). The function wouldn't be called with values other
  than mentioned in exynos_rng_dt_match array.
- Applied changes to the commit message of patch #3 requested by Stephan
  Mueller.

Changes since v1:

- Added Patch #4.
- Extended commit message for patch #3.
- Changed exynos_prng_type enum and a define according to Krzysztof KozÅowski's
  recommendations.
- Brought back cpu_relax() in a rearranged loop in
  exynos_rng_get_random().
- Moved an assignment of the read valuea away from an error path.
- Removed dev_info() reporting hardware presence from
  exynos_rng_probe().
