From 96cb9d0554457086664d3bd10630b11193d863f1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Jason A. Donenfeld" Date: Mon, 10 Oct 2022 09:06:07 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] hwrng: bcm2835 - use hwrng_msleep() instead of cpu_relax() Rather than busy looping, yield back to the scheduler and sleep for a bit in the event that there's no data. This should hopefully prevent the stalls that Mark reported: <6>[ 3.362859] Freeing initrd memory: 16196K <3>[ 23.160131] rcu: INFO: rcu_sched self-detected stall on CPU <3>[ 23.166057] rcu: 0-....: (2099 ticks this GP) idle=03b4/1/0x40000002 softirq=28/28 fqs=1050 <4>[ 23.174895] (t=2101 jiffies g=-1147 q=2353 ncpus=4) <4>[ 23.180203] CPU: 0 PID: 49 Comm: hwrng Not tainted 6.0.0 #1 <4>[ 23.186125] Hardware name: BCM2835 <4>[ 23.189837] PC is at bcm2835_rng_read+0x30/0x6c <4>[ 23.194709] LR is at hwrng_fillfn+0x71/0xf4 <4>[ 23.199218] pc : [] lr : [] psr: 40000033 <4>[ 23.205840] sp : f093df70 ip : 00000000 fp : 00000000 <4>[ 23.211404] r10: c3c7e800 r9 : 00000000 r8 : c17e6b20 <4>[ 23.216968] r7 : c17e6b64 r6 : c18b0a74 r5 : c07ccd99 r4 : c3f171c0 <4>[ 23.223855] r3 : 000fffff r2 : 00000040 r1 : c3c7e800 r0 : c3f171c0 <4>[ 23.230743] Flags: nZcv IRQs on FIQs on Mode SVC_32 ISA Thumb Segment none <4>[ 23.238426] Control: 50c5387d Table: 0020406a DAC: 00000051 <4>[ 23.244519] CPU: 0 PID: 49 Comm: hwrng Not tainted 6.0.0 #1 Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/Y0QJLauamRnCDUef@sirena.org.uk/ Signed-off-by: Jason A.
