during entropy evaluation, if the generated samples fail any statistical test, then, all of the bits will be discarded, and a second set of samples will be generated and tested. the entropy delay interval should be doubled before performing the retry. also, ctrlpriv->rng4_sh_init and inst_handles both reads RNG DRNG status register, but only inst_handles is updated before every retry. so only check inst_handles and removing ctrlpriv->rng4_sh_init Signed-off-by: Gaurav Jain <gaurav.jain@xxxxxxx> --- drivers/crypto/caam/ctrl.c | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/crypto/caam/ctrl.c b/drivers/crypto/caam/ctrl.c index a93be395c878..18a850cf0f97 100644 --- a/drivers/crypto/caam/ctrl.c +++ b/drivers/crypto/caam/ctrl.c @@ -703,12 +703,12 @@ static int caam_ctrl_rng_init(struct device *dev) */ if (needs_entropy_delay_adjustment()) ent_delay = 12000; - if (!(ctrlpriv->rng4_sh_init || inst_handles)) { + if (!inst_handles) { dev_info(dev, "Entropy delay = %u\n", ent_delay); kick_trng(dev, ent_delay); - ent_delay += 400; + ent_delay = ent_delay * 2; } /* * if instantiate_rng(...) fails, the loop will rerun -- 2.25.1
