From 09b3d3579fd3f6ed89e1ecb2542979ed41856746 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Jason A. Donenfeld" Date: Sun, 22 May 2022 22:25:41 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] random: check for signals after page of pool writes commit 1ce6c8d68f8ac587f54d0a271ac594d3d51f3efb upstream. get_random_bytes_user() checks for signals after producing a PAGE_SIZE worth of output, just like /dev/zero does. write_pool() is doing basically the same work (actually, slightly more expensive), and so should stop to check for signals in the same way. Let's also name it write_pool_user() to match get_random_bytes_user(), so this won't be misused in the future. Before this patch, massive writes to /dev/urandom would tie up the process for an extremely long time and make it unterminatable. After, it can be successfully interrupted. The following test program can be used to see this works as intended: #include #include #include #include static unsigned char x[~0U]; static void handle(int) { } int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { pid_t pid = getpid(), child; int fd; signal(SIGUSR1, handle); if (!(child = fork())) { for (;;) kill(pid, SIGUSR1); } fd = open("/dev/urandom", O_WRONLY); pause(); printf("interrupted after writing %zd bytes\n", write(fd, x, sizeof(x))); close(fd); kill(child, SIGTERM); return 0; } Result before: "interrupted after writing 2147479552 bytes" Result after: "interrupted after writing 4096 bytes" Cc: Dominik Brodowski Signed-off-by: Jason A.
