Subject: [PATCH 3/3] RISC-V: Implement archrandom when Zkr is available

The Zkr extension is ratified and provides 16 bits of entropy seed when
reading the SEED CSR.

We can implement arch_get_random_seed_longs() by doing multiple csrrw to
that CSR and filling an unsigned long with valid entropy bits.

Does pr_fmt() not work for you?
Also, "Zkr Extension" doesn't really seem super helpful to a punter if
they saw it in a log. Why not s/Zkr Extension/archrandom/, or similar?

What relevance does the second half of this comment have to the kernel?

tiny nit, "On-going"? My OCD is bother by the capitalisation otherwise.

Could you please write this in a more readable way, even if that is
going to be a lot more verbose? I know you copied it from x86, but
that's not really an excuse ;)

Also, is there a reason that you opted not to use the alternative-backed
riscv_has_extension_[un]likely() here? The ones backed by alternatives
are preferred if you are not checking on a per-cpu, or once-off basis.

Cheers,
Conor.

The Entropy Source specification is annoyingly vague about expected retry
counts, only saying that "Without a polling-style mechanism, the entropy
source could hang for thousands of cycles under some circumstances."

Likewise no constraint is placed on the maximum runtime of a BIST or the
maximum number of times SEED_OPST_BIST is repeatedly returned (only that
it be returned at least once if the BIST starts and finishes between seed
reads).

With that, the limit of 10 reads seems suspiciously small. Is there a
specific justification or is it known to work on some hardware?

It would, but since this is a header that e.g. gets included in
random.h, I would have to ifndef it first.
My v2 is less verbose and gets rid of this prefix anyways.

Not much, I will remove it with v2.

I removed that one with v2, as it may be a little too chatty.

Agreed :)
Fixed as well with v2.

I did not know about them, I switched to it with v2 (Made it a likely
case).
