From 3672476edaa0660eb833f54fa9edeb505417b75c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Tobin C. Harding" Date: Fri, 22 Jun 2018 09:15:34 +1000 Subject: vsprintf: Add command line option debug_boot_weak_hash Currently printing [hashed] pointers requires enough entropy to be available. Early in the boot sequence this may not be the case resulting in a dummy string '(____ptrval____)' being printed. This makes debugging the early boot sequence difficult. We can relax the requirement to use cryptographically secure hashing during debugging. This enables debugging while keeping development/production kernel behaviour the same. If new command line option debug_boot_weak_hash is enabled use cryptographically insecure hashing and hash pointer value immediately. Reviewed-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) Signed-off-by: Tobin C.
