From: Linus Torvalds Date: Thu, 30 Jul 2020 02:11:00 +0000 (-0700) Subject: random32: remove net_rand_state from the latent entropy gcc plugin X-Git-Tag: v4.4.233~118 X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d4f1538011dbc161daef137a88e10724c105dd40;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Fstable.git random32: remove net_rand_state from the latent entropy gcc plugin commit 83bdc7275e6206f560d247be856bceba3e1ed8f2 upstream. It turns out that the plugin right now ends up being really unhappy about the change from 'static' to 'extern' storage that happened in commit f227e3ec3b5c ("random32: update the net random state on interrupt and activity"). This is probably a trivial fix for the latent_entropy plugin, but for now, just remove net_rand_state from the list of things the plugin worries about.
