[PATCH v7 0/4] automatically add /chosen/kaslr-seed and deduplicate code

This series will automatically add /chosen/kaslr-seed to the dt if DM_RNG is enabled during the boot process.
If RANDOMIZE_BASE is enabled in the Linux kernel instructing it to randomize the virtual address at which the kernel image is loaded, it expects entropy to be provided by the bootloader by populating /chosen/kaslr-seed with a 64-bit value from source of entropy at boot.
If we have DM_RNG enabled populate this value automatically when fdt_chosen is called. We skip this if ARMV8_SEC_FIRMWARE_SUPPORT is enabled as its implementation uses a different source of entropy that is not yet implemented as DM_RNG. We also skip this if MEASURED_BOOT is enabled as in that case any modifications to the dt will cause measured boot to fail (although there are many other places the dt is altered).
As this fdt node is added elsewhere create a library function and use it to deduplicate code. We will provide a parameter to overwrite the node if present.
For our automatic injection, we will use the first rng device and not overwrite if already present with a non-zero value (which may have been populated by an earlier boot stage). This way if a board specific ft_board_setup() function wants to customize this behavior it can call fdt_kaslrseed with a rng device index of its choosing and set overwrite true.
Note that the kalsrseed command (CMD_KASLRSEED) is likely pointless now but left in place in case boot scripts exist that rely on this command existing and returning success. An informational message is printed to alert users of this command that it is likely no longer needed.
Note that the Kernel's EFI STUB only relies on EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL for randomization and completely ignores the kaslr-seed for its own randomness needs (i.e the randomization of the physical placement of the kernel). It gets weeded out from the DTB that gets handed over via efi_install_fdt() as it would also mess up the measured boot DTB TPM measurements as well.

If RANDOMIZE_BASE is enabled in the Linux kernel instructing it to randomize the virtual address at which the kernel image is loaded, it expects entropy to be provided by the bootloader by populating /chosen/kaslr-seed with a 64-bit value from source of entropy at boot.
Add a fdt_kaslrseed function to accommodate this allowing an existing node to be overwritten if present. For now use the first rng device but it would be good to enhance this in the future to allow some sort of selection or policy in choosing the rng device used.

Hi Tim,
On a re-read, I'm honestly not sure what I was getting at here. I was under the impression that were were doing fdt_check_header() multiple times on the same fdt, but if that's not the case then this is of course fine.
Regarding the chosen node, clearly something went amiss between brain and keyboard there.
Sorry if I delayed this patch series! Looking forward to having it in.

If RANDOMIZE_BASE is enabled in the Linux kernel instructing it to randomize the virtual address at which the kernel image is loaded, it expects entropy to be provided by the bootloader by populating /chosen/kaslr-seed with a 64-bit value from source of entropy at boot.
If we have DM_RNG enabled populate this value automatically when fdt_chosen is called. We skip this if ARMV8_SEC_FIRMWARE_SUPPORT is enabled as its implementation uses a different source of entropy that is not yet implemented as DM_RNG. We also skip this if MEASURED_BOOT is enabled as in that case any modifications to the dt will cause measured boot to fail (although there are many other places the dt is altered).
Note that the Kernel's EFI STUB only relies on EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL for randomization and completely ignores the kaslr-seed for its own randomness needs (i.e the randomization of the physical placement of the kernel). It gets weeded out from the DTB that gets handed over via efi_install_fdt() as it would also mess up the measured boot DTB TPM measurements as well.

Thanks, Michal

Now that kaslr-seed is automatically added to the chosen node if DM_RNG is enabled, adjust the test to expect this.
Take care not to expect kaslr-seed for CONFIG_MEASURED_BOOT and CONFIG_ARMV8_SEC_FIRMWARE_SUPPORT as we do not add it for those.
