+Subject: random: restore O_NONBLOCK support
+
+From: Jason A. Donenfeld <Jason@zx2c4.com>
+
+commit cd4f24ae9404fd31fc461066e57889be3b68641b upstream.
+
+Prior to 5.6, when /dev/random was opened with O_NONBLOCK, it would
+return -EAGAIN if there was no entropy. When the pools were unified in
+5.6, this was lost. The post 5.6 behavior of blocking until the pool is
+initialized, and ignoring O_NONBLOCK in the process, went unnoticed,
+with no reports about the regression received for two and a half years.
+However, eventually this indeed did break somebody's userspace.
+
+So we restore the old behavior, by returning -EAGAIN if the pool is not
+initialized. Unlike the old /dev/random, this can only occur during
+early boot, after which it never blocks again.
+
+In order to make this O_NONBLOCK behavior consistent with other
+expectations, also respect users reading with preadv2(RWF_NOWAIT) and
+similar.
+
+Fixes: 30c08efec888 ("random: make /dev/random be almost like /dev/urandom")
