Subject: [PATCH v5 02/10] x86/boot: Allow a "silent" kaslr random byte fetch
Date: Wed, 23 Sep 2020 10:38:56 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200923173905.11219-3-kristen@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200923173905.11219-1-kristen@linux.intel.com>

From: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>

Under earlyprintk, each RNG call produces a debug report line. When
shuffling hundreds of functions, this is not useful information (each
line is identical and tells us nothing new). Instead, allow for a NULL
"purpose" to suppress the debug reporting.
