606f8eb27a Remove the mtx_t, witness_t, and witness_blessed_t types. Instead, just
use struct mtx, struct witness, and struct witness_blessed.

d0d519348d The "struct proc" argument to read_random was ill-conceived, and a
hangover from previous experimentation. Remove it. This will clean
up gratuitous needs for forward references and other namespace
pollution.

ecbcd538a4 Move the prototypes for random_set_wakeup* from yarrow.c to yarrow.h so that
both yarrow.c and harvest.c can use them.

2ed0f9191a - Use RFHIGHPID when creating the kthread to get a more sensible pid.
- Don't fake walking a tailq.  Instead, use a while loop that pulls items
  off the head of the queue while the queue is not empty.

4d87a031c0 Large upgrade to the entropy device; mainly inspired by feedback
from many folk.

o The reseed process is now a kthread. With SMPng, kthreads are
  pre-emptive, so the annoying jerkiness of the mouse is gone.

o The data structures are protected by mutexes now, not splfoo()/splx().

o The cryptographic routines are broken out into their own subroutines.
  this facilitates review, and possible replacement if that is ever
  found necessary.

7aa4389a6c o Fix a horrible bug where small reads (< 8 bytes) would return the
wrong bytes.

o Improve the public interface; use void* instead of char* or u_int64_t
  to pass arbitrary data around.

c90a8fc9a5 Clean this up with some BDE-inspired fixes.
o Make the comments KNF-compliant.
o Use nanotime instead of getnanotime; the manpage lies about the
  kern.timecounter.method - it has been removed.
o Fix the ENTROPYSOURCE const permanently.
o Make variable names more consistent.
o Make function prototypes more consistent.

Some more needs to be done; to follow.

720a3741cf Add randomness write functionality. This does absolutely nothing for
entropy estimation, but causes an immediate reseed after the input
(read in sizeof(u_int64_t) chunks) is "harvested".

This will be used in the reboot "reseeder", coming in another
commit. This can be used very effectively at any time you think
your randomness is compromised; something like

# (ps -gauxwww; netstat -an; dmesg; vmstat -c10 1) > /dev/random

will give the attacker something to think about.

4d0e6f79d6 Storing to a pointer is (effectively) atomic; no need to protect this
with splhigh(). However, the entropy-harvesting routine needs pretty
serious irq-protection, as it is called out of irq handlers etc.

7978f67e28 I think I need to move the newly static variables to the random_state
structure; remind myself in the cooments. Also regroup all the Yarrow
variables at the top of the variable list; they are "special".
(no functional change).

87a478de7b One should never allocate 4-kilobyte structs and such on the interrupt
stack.  It's bad for your machine's health.

Make the two huge structs in reseed() static to prevent crashes.  This
is the bug that people have been running into and panic()ing on for the
past few days.

585ebe2b41 Yarrow tweaks; separate the fast and slow reseed tasks so that they don't
stomp on each other; provide constant names (as enums) for the harvester
to use (makes it more self-documenting).

d44f401738 Staticize a variable.
This fixes the case where linking randomdev into the kernel statically
can cause panics at shutdown time.

1f67cd8737 I am guilty of an act of ommission. There is no longer a /dev/urandom
device with Yarrow, and although I coded for that in dev/MAKEDEV, I forgot
to _tell_ folks.

This commit adds back the /dev/urandom device (as a duplicate) of /dev/random,
until such time as it can be properly announced.

This will help the openssl users quite a lot.

4db9ae91ff New machine-independant /dev/random driver.
This is work-in-progress, and the entropy-gathering routines are not
yet present. As such, this should be viewed as a pretty reasonable
PRNG with _ABSOLUTELY_NO_ security!!

Entropy gathering will be the subject of ongoing work.

This is written as a module, and as such is unloadable, but there is
no refcounting done. I would like to use something like device_busy(9)
to achieve this (eventually).

Lots of useful ideas from:	bde, phk, Jeroen van Gelderen
