Specify a Linux specific UEFI configuration table that carries some
random bits, and use the contents during early boot to seed the kernel's
random number generator. This allows much strong random numbers to be
generated early on.

The entropy is fed to the kernel using add_device_randomness(), which is
documented as being appropriate for being called very early.

Note that the config table could be generated by the EFI stub or by any
other UEFI driver or application (e.g., GRUB), but the random seed table
GUID and the associated functionality should be considered an internal
kernel interface (unless it is promoted to ABI later on)

This series looks fine to me. I'm leaving the patch below for the
benefit of the Ted and Kees.

What does this mean for kexec? Won't each successive kernel look for the
table and find the same seed?

I think to some extent this mush be treated as an ABI, given cases like
kexec.

Thanks,
Mark.

Yes. Whether this is a problem or not is context dependent: for things
like kdump, I don't think anyone cares. For other cases, having some
seed may still be better than having no seed at all.

It does mean, however, that we have to preserve the memory this table
points to for kexec boots.

Perhaps, yes. That would also allow GRUB or other EFI aware
bootloaders to generate the seed.

If we're going to go down this route, we should try and get the GUID
into the UEFI spec.

It seems like maybe under UEFI, both this table (which sounds like
it'll not be rotated regularly) could be mixed with calls to
EFI_PROTOCOL_RNG by the kernel? (Similar to how kaslr is seeded?)

What do you mean 'rotated'? It is generated at boot. My 2/2 patch
generates it from the stub using the EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL on ARM/arm64

That is kind of the point. KASLR is different because we need the
entropy before even jumping to C code, but for all other uses of early
entropy, this seemed like a useful approach

Oh! I entirely misunderstood. I thought doing regular writes to EFI
variables was discouraged (since they may be stored in NVRAM that
would "wear out").

Yup, cool. If the table changes per boot, yeah, my suggestion is pointless. :)

Uefi config tables only live in memory. They are used to provide the os with data that the firmware generates at boot, e.g., smbios and acpi tables etc

Yes, but as Mark pointed out, we need to decide how to handle kexec, which does not go through the stub
