bind/bind-9.11-rt46047.patch

From 4c7b644910e21e690e5f51d5596a9fe46d9c7b7a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Evan Hunt <each@isc.org>
Date: Thu, 28 Sep 2017 10:09:22 -0700
Subject: [PATCH] completed and corrected the crypto-random change

4724.	[func]		By default, BIND now uses the random number
			functions provided by the crypto library (i.e.,
			OpenSSL or a PKCS#11 provider) as a source of
			randomness rather than /dev/random.  This is
			suitable for virtual machine environments
			which have limited entropy pools and lack
			hardware random number generators.

			This can be overridden by specifying another
			entropy source via the "random-device" option
			in named.conf, or via the -r command line option;
			however, for functions requiring full cryptographic
			strength, such as DNSSEC key generation, this
			cannot be overridden. In particular, the -r
			command line option no longer has any effect on
			dnssec-keygen.

			This can be disabled by building with
			"configure --disable-crypto-rand".
			[RT #31459] [RT #46047]

+        By default, BIND now uses the random number generation functions
+        in the cryptographic library (i.e., OpenSSL or a PKCS#11
+        provider) as a source of high-quality randomness rather than
+        <filename>/dev/random</filename>.  This is suitable for virtual
+        machine environments, which may have limited entropy pools and
+        lack hardware random number generators.
+      </para>
+      <para>
+        This can be overridden by specifying another entropy source via
+        the <command>random-device</command> option in
+        <filename>named.conf</filename>, or via the <command>-r</command>
+        command line option.  However, for functions requiring full
+        cryptographic strength, such as DNSSEC key generation, this
+        <emphasis>cannot</emphasis> be overridden. In particular, the
+        <command>-r</command> command line option no longer has any
+        effect on <command>dnssec-keygen</command>.
+      </para>
+      <para>
+        This can be disabled by building with
+        <command>configure --disable-crypto-rand</command>, in which
+        case <filename>/dev/random</filename> will be the default
+        entropy source.  [RT #31459] [RT #46047]
