read_random() is/was used, mostly without error checking, in a lot of very sensitive places in the kernel -- including seeding the widely used arc4random(9). Most uses, especially arc4random(9), should block until the device is seeded rather than proceeding with a bogus or empty seed. I did not spy any obvious kernel consumers where blocking would be inappropriate (in the sense that lack of entropy would be ok -- I did not investigate locking angle thoroughly). In many instances, arc4random_buf(9) or that family of APIs would be more appropriate anyway; that work was done in r345865. A minor cleanup was made to the implementation of the READ_RANDOM function: instead of using a variable-length array on the stack to temporarily store all full random blocks sufficient to satisfy the requested 'len', only store a single block on the stack. This has some benefit in terms of reducing stack usage, reducing memcpy overhead and reducing devrandom output leakage via the stack. Additionally, the stack block is now safely zeroed if it was used. One caveat of this change is that the kern.arandom sysctl no longer returns zero bytes immediately if the random device is not seeded. This means that FreeBSD-specific userspace applications which attempted to handle an unseeded random device may be broken by this change. If such behavior is needed, it can be replaced by the more portable getrandom(2) GRND_NONBLOCK option. On any typical FreeBSD system, entropy is persisted on read/write media and used to seed the random device very early in boot, and blocking is never a problem. This change primarily impacts the behavior of /dev/random on embedded systems with read-only media that do not configure "nodevice random". We toggle the default from 'charge on blindly with no entropy' to 'block indefinitely.' This default is safer, but may cause frustration. Embedded system designers using FreeBSD have several options. The most obvious is to plan to have a small writable NVRAM or NAND to persist entropy, like larger systems. Early entropy can be fed from any loader, or by writing directly to /dev/random during boot. Some embedded SoCs now provide a fast hardware entropy source; this would also work for quickly seeding Fortuna. A 3rd option would be creating an embedded-specific, more simplistic random module, like that designed by DJB in [1] (this design still requires a small rewritable media for forward secrecy). Finally, the least preferred option might be "nodevice random", although I plan to remove this in a subsequent revision. To help developers emulate the behavior of these embedded systems on ordinary workstations, the tunable kern.random.block_seeded_status was added. When set to 1, it blocks the random device. I attempted to document this change in random.4 and random.9 and ran into a bunch of out-of-date or irrelevant or inaccurate content and ended up rototilling those documents more than I intended to. Sorry. I think they're in a better state now.
