From: David <david.keisarschm@mail.huji.ac.il>

Since the two functions
 prandom_byte_state and prandom_u32_state
 use the weak prng prandom_u32,
 we added the prefix predictable_rng,
 to their signatures so it is clear they are weak.

It's fancy indentation.

Isn't it too many "random":s encoded in the name?

I would leave either "rng" or "[p]random".

Please CC me on future revisions.

As of 6.2, the prandom namespace is *only* for predictable randomness.
There's no need to rename anything. So nack on this patch 1/5.

With regards to the remaining patches in this series, if you want to
move prandom_u32_state callers over to get_random_bytes() and
get_random_u32(), that's fine from my perspective, but last I looked,
there was much usage in places where being repeatable was actually the
goal - test suites and such, where you want to be able to redo your
tests with the same seed. So you'll have to look at each instance case
by case and convince whoever maintains that code that they don't need
predictability. However, if you do that, the right functions to use are
get_random_bytes() and get_random_u32().

It is not obvious (for casual developers like me) that p in prandom
stands for predictable. Some renaming would be useful IMHO.

Renaming makes backports more complicated, because stable teams will
have to 'undo' name changes.
Stable teams are already overwhelmed by the amount of backports, and
silly merge conflicts.

Take another example :

u64 timecounter_read(struct timecounter *tc)

You would think this function would read the timecounter, right ?

Well, it _updates_ many fields from @tc, so a 'better name' would also
be useful.

linux kernel is not for casual readers.

Right, at some point we become into the world of

#define true 0

because... (read below)

P.S. I believe you applied a common sense and in some cases
     the renames are necessary.

And before you become to a wrong conclusion by reading between the lines,
no, I'm not taking either side (to rename or not to rename) in this case.

Since when backporting problems is valid argument for stop making
changes? That's new for me.

Sure.

I disagree.  pseudo-random has *always* menat "predictable".  And the
'p' in prandom was originally "pseudo-random".  In userspace,
random(3) is also pseudo-random, and is ***utterly*** predictable.  So
the original use of prandom() was a bit more of an explicit nod to the
fact that prandom is something which is inherently predictable.

So I don't think it's needed to rename it, whether it's to
"predictable_rng_prandom_u32", or "no_you_idiot_dont_you_dare_use_it_for_cryptographi_purposes_prandom_u32".

I think we need to assume a certain base level of competence,
especially for someone who is messing with security psensitive kernel
code.  If a developer doesn't know that a prng is predictable, that's
probably the *least* of the sort of mistakes that they might make.
