The rng structure contains the quality field which tells how many bits
of entropy can be obtained from 1024 bits read from a device. With the
quality value set the hw_random framework starts a kernel thread to feed
the entropy pool in the CRNG, which helps to initialize it quickly
especially during boot.

I am not sure we should use the ent tool to define the entropy level. Ent 
seems to use a very coarse entropy estimation.

I would feel more comfortable when using other measures like SP800-90B which 
even provides a tool for the analysis.

I understand that entropy estimates, well, are estimates. But the ent data is 
commonly not very conservative.

Thank you for pointing this out.

I am running tests using SP800-90B tools and the first issue I can see
is the warning that samples contain less than 1e6 bytes of data. I know
little about maths behind random number generators, but I have noticed
that the bigger chunk of data from an RNG I feed into either ent or ea_iid
the higher entropy they report. That is why I divided the data into 1024
bit chunks in the first place. To get worse results. With ea_iid they
get even worse (128 bytes of random data)


    Calculating baseline statistics...
    H_original: 4.107376
    H_bitstring: 0.795122
    min(H_original, 8 X H_bitstring): 4.107376

but I don't know how much I can trust it, when I get such warning

    *** Warning: data contains less than 1000000 samples ***

ea_non_iid refuses to run tests with less than 4096 bytes of input.

I may suspect that lack of any warnings from ent doesn't make its
results any more reliable.

Anyway. I collected 1024 files 1024 bits each once again and ran the
following tests

    for f in exynos-trng/random*; do ./ea_iid "$f" | grep ^min; done |  sort | head -1
    for f in rng200/random*; do ./ea_iid "$f" | grep ^min; done | sort | head -1

For both RNGs I got the same

    min(H_original, 8 X H_bitstring): 3.393082

which, if I understand correctly, means I should set quality to no more
than 434. Do you think 400 is OK?

Kind regards,

I read that you seem to just take the output data from the RNG. If this is 
correct, I think we can stop right here. The output of an RNG is usually after 
post-processing commonly provided by a cryptographic function.

Thus, when processing the output of the RNG all what we measure here is the 
quality of the cryptographic post-processing and not the entropy that may be 
present in the data.

What we need is to access the noise source and analyze this with the given 
tool set. And yes, the analysis may require adjusting the data to a format 
that can be consumed and analyzed by the statistical tests.

Stephan

Oddly enough I've got the same number for other random sources on my x86

| Source       | ea_iid -i | ea_iid -c (h') |      ent |
|--------------+-----------+----------------+----------|
| /dev/random  |  3.393082 |       0.768654 | 6.300399 |
| /dev/urandom |  3.393082 |       0.759161 | 6.348562 |
| tpm-rng      |  3.393082 |       0.735722 | 6.323990 |
| exynos-trng  |  3.393082 |       0.687825 | 6.327820 |
| rng200       |  3.393082 |       0.740376 | 6.291959 |

I suspect 1024 bits is too little for ea_iid to give a meaningfull
result. BTW ent results also seem a little oddly low for crng. Any
thoughs?

I took data from /dev/hwrng which is directly connected to the
hardware. See rng_dev_read() in drivers/char/hw_random/core.c.

Hi Lukasz,


As I mentioned, all that is or seems to be analyzed here is the quality of the 
cryptographic post-processing. Thus none of the data can be used for getting 
an idea of the entropy content.

That said, the ent value indeed looks too low which seems to be an issue in 
the tool itself.

Note, for an entropy assessment commonly at least 1 million traces from the 
raw noise source are needed.

See for examples on how such entropy assessments are conducted in the LRNG 
documentation [1] or the Linux /dev/random implementation in [2]

I've got 1MiB from each source. Of course I used raw data from /dev/hwrng
for tpm, exynos and rng200.

Thanks a lot, I am reading.

I will try to write somthing clever as soon as I parse and understand
these documents (and do other stuff too). Thank you very much for your help.

The rng structure contains the quality field which tells how many bits
of entropy can be obtained from 1024 bits read from a device. With the
quality value set the hw_random framework starts a kernel thread to feed
the entropy pool in the CRNG, which helps to initialize it quickly
especially during boot.

I am sorry, but I think I did not make myself clear: testing random numbers 
post-processing with the statistical tools does NOT give any idea about the 
entropy rate. Thus, all that was calculated is the proper implementation of 
the post-processing operation and not the actual noise source.

What needs to happen is that we need access to raw, unconditioned data from 
the noise source that is analyzed with the statistical methods.

This link looks ugly and do not protect anything.
Can you just cut out that "protect2" thing and put proper direct link to github ?

I did understand you and I assure you the data I tested were obtained
directly from RNGs. As I pointed before[1], that is how /dev/hwrng
works[2].

If I am wrong, do show me the code that processes the data from a HW RNG
before copying them to user provided buffer[3].

I understand that /dev/hwrng pulls the data straight from the hardware. But 
the data from the hardware usually is not obtained straight from the noise 
source.

Typically you have a noise source (e.g. a ring oscillator) whose data is 
digitized then fed into a compression function like an LFSR or a hash. Then a 
cryptographic operation like a CBC-MAC, hash or even a DRBG is applied to that 
data when the caller wants to have random numbers.

In order to estimate entropy, we need the raw unconditioned data from the, 
say, ring oscillator and not from the (cryptographic) output operation.

That said, the illustrated example is typical for hardware RNGs. Yet it is 
never guaranteed to work that way. Thus, if you can point to architecture 
documentation of your specific hardware RNGs showing that the data read from 
the hardware is pure unconditioned noise data, then I have no objections to 
the patch.

I am not talking about any software post-processing. I am talking about post-
processing within the hardware.

I do understand your point (but not entirely, see below). [opinion]
However, I am really not sure that this is a "typical" setting for a HW
RNG, at least not among RNGs supported by Linux. Otherwise there would
be no hw_random framework and no rngd(8) which are suppsed to

Can you tell, why it matters in this case? If I understand correctly,
the quality field describes not the randomness created by the noise
generator but the one delivered by the driver to other software
components.

I can tell for sure that this is the case for exynos-trng[1]. There is a
post-processor which I have forgotten about since writing the driver,
because from the very beginning I didn't intend to use it. I knew there
is the software framework for post-processing and simply didn't bother.

With regards to iproc-rng200 I cannot be sure.

The hw_random framework only makes these hardware RNG accessible for in-kernel 
as well as user space use.

The quality field is used by add_hwgenerator_randomness to increase the Linux 
RNG entropy estimator accordingly. This is the issue.

And giving an entropy rate based on post-processed data is meaningless.

The concern is, for example, that you use a DRBG that you seeded with, say, a 
zero buffer. You get perfect random data from it that no statistical test can 
disprove. Yet we know this data stream has zero entropy. Thus, we need to get 
to the source and assess its entropy.

So you are saying that the output for the exynos-trng is straight from a ring 
oscillator without any post-processing of any kind?

If this is the case, I would like to suggest you add that statement to the git 
commit message with that reference. If so, then I would withdraw my objection.

Hi,

I think we will never be able to state this because the manual is
quite limited in sharing internals. What the driver does and probably
Lukasz wanted to say is that there is "post processing" block and
feature which can be disabled. The manual is saying the TRNG block
generates random data from thermal noise but not how much in a direct
way. There could be some simple post-processing or not (except the one
able to on/off). Also manual says this post processing block is there
to remove statistical weakness from the TRNG block. To me it does not
prove enough that raw data is really raw...

Best regards,
Krzysztof

Of course, this makes sense.

Done. I will do some reaserch on iproc-rng200 and I will send v3 with
the altered commit message.

could you please mention in the commit the used hardware
implementation(s) of iproc-rng200 to get this quality?

AFAIK there is still no public register description at least for the
bcm2711. So is it safe to assume that the suggested quality applies to
all possible configurations?

Thanks

I've learnt that there is a post-processing unit in RNG200 that tests
the output of the noise generator and fills FIFO only with data that
passes FIPS tests. Unlike simmilar unit in Exynos, it cannot be disabled
or bypassed. Therefore, after Stephan Mueller's thorough explanations I
am considering dropping this patch in v3.

However, I stil am still not 100% convinced that it is impossible to
assign the quality a reasonable non-zero value in such case.

If you would be more clear what that FIPS test is all about, we may be able to 
identify whether it affects the entropy behavior or not. E.g. if it is the 
SP800-90B health test following SP880-90B section 4.4, this does not affect 
entropy and you could apply your calculation.
