3d81b3d1e5 x86/cpu: Use RDRAND and RDSEED mnemonics in archrandom.h
Current minimum required version of binutils is 2.23,
which supports RDRAND and RDSEED instruction mnemonics.

Replace the byte-wise specification of RDRAND and
RDSEED with these proper mnemonics.

5f2ed7f5b9 x86: Remove arch_has_random, arch_has_random_seed
Use the expansion of these macros directly in arch_get_random_*.

These symbols are currently part of the generic archrandom.h
interface, but are currently unused and can be removed.

3b29039863 x86, asm: Use CC_SET()/CC_OUT() and static_cpu_has() in archrandom.h
Use CC_SET()/CC_OUT() and static_cpu_has().  This produces code good
enough to eliminate ad hoc use of alternatives in <asm/archrandom.h>,
greatly simplifying the code.

While we are at it, make x86_init_rdrand() compile out completely if
we don't need it.

v2: fix a conflict between <linux/random.h> and <asm/archrandom.h>
    discovered by Ingo Molnar.  There are a few places in x86-specific
    code where we need all of <arch/archrandom.h> even when
    CONFIG_ARCH_RANDOM is disabled, so <linux/random.h> does not
    suffice.

117780eef7 x86, asm: use bool for bitops and other assembly outputs
The gcc people have confirmed that using "bool" when combined with
inline assembly always is treated as a byte-sized operand that can be
assumed to be 0 or 1, which is exactly what the SET instruction
emits.  Change the output types and intermediate variables of as many
operations as practical to "bool".

d20f78d252 x86, random: Enable the RDSEED instruction
Upcoming Intel silicon adds a new RDSEED instruction, which is similar
to RDRAND but provides a stronger guarantee: unlike RDRAND, RDSEED
will always reseed the PRNG from the true random number source between
each read.  Thus, the output of RDSEED is guaranteed to be 100%
entropic, unlike RDRAND which is only architecturally guaranteed to be
1/512 entropic (although in practice is much more.)

The RDSEED instruction takes the same time to execute as RDRAND, but
RDSEED unlike RDRAND can legitimately return failure (CF=0) due to
entropy exhaustion if too many threads on too many cores are hammering
the RDSEED instruction at the same time.  Therefore, we have to be
more conservative and only use it in places where we can tolerate
failures.

This patch introduces the primitives arch_get_random_seed_{int,long}()
but does not use it yet.

5bfce5ef55 x86, kaslr: Provide randomness functions
Adds potential sources of randomness: RDRAND, RDTSC, or the i8254.

This moves the pre-alternatives inline rdrand function into the header so
both pieces of code can use it. Availability of RDRAND is then controlled
by CONFIG_ARCH_RANDOM, if someone wants to disable it even for kASLR.

49d859d78c x86, random: Verify RDRAND functionality and allow it to be disabled
If the CPU declares that RDRAND is available, go through a guranteed
reseed sequence, and make sure that it is actually working (producing
data.)   If it does not, disable the CPU feature flag.

Allow RDRAND to be disabled on the command line (as opposed to at
compile time) for a user who has special requirements with regards to
random numbers.

628c6246d4 x86, random: Architectural inlines to get random integers with RDRAND
Architectural inlines to get random ints and longs using the RDRAND
instruction.

Intel has introduced a new RDRAND instruction, a Digital Random Number
Generator (DRNG), which is functionally an high bandwidth entropy
source, cryptographic whitener, and integrity monitor all built into
hardware.  This enables RDRAND to be used directly, bypassing the
kernel random number pool.

For technical documentation, see:

http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/download-the-latest-bull-mountain-software-implementation-guide/

In this patch, this is *only* used for the nonblocking random number
pool.  RDRAND is a nonblocking source, similar to our /dev/urandom,
and is therefore not a direct replacement for /dev/random.  The
architectural hooks presented in the previous patch only feed the
kernel internal users, which only use the nonblocking pool, and so
this is not a problem.

Since this instruction is available in userspace, there is no reason
to have a /dev/hw_rng device driver for the purpose of feeding rngd.
This is especially so since RDRAND is a nonblocking source, and needs
additional whitening and reduction (see the above technical
documentation for details) in order to be of "pure entropy source"
quality.

The CONFIG_EXPERT compile-time option can be used to disable this use
of RDRAND.
