在使用hostapd做软ap时,出现了random熵不够的问题,导致节点连接不上这个ap。
下面先解释一下/dev/random和/dev/urandom
先让我们从一个工程中遇到的实际问题开始,先上log:
E/hostapd ( 100): random: Cannot readfrom /dev/random: Try again
I/hostapd ( 100): random: Only 0/20bytes of strong random data available from /dev/random
I/hostapd ( 100): random: Not enoughentropy pool available for secure operations
I/hostapd ( 100): WPA: Note[ 22.722265] RTL871X: set group key to hw: alg:2(WEP40-1 WEP104-5TKIP-2 AES-4) keyid:1
nough entropy in random pool to proceed -reject first 4-way handshake
以上是hostapd在接受一个wifi终端的接入鉴权时的一段log,该段log显示,在开始四步握手鉴权时,需要获取随机数,而此时/dev/random却未能够提供足够的随机数熵(entropy),导致鉴权不能正常进行。
那为什么/dev/random不能提供足够的随机数呢,为了解析这个,得从他们的根源分析起。
/dev/random和/dev/urandom是unix系统提供的产生随机数的设备,很多应用都需要使用random设备提供的随机数,比如ssh keys, SSL keys, TCP/IP sequence numbers等等
而random设备的random pool是从基于中断的IRQS里面取值,IRQS跟一些特殊的硬件绑定,基于这些硬件的interrupts将会提供给random设备。
以下模拟一个从/dev/random取值但是/dev/random取不到足够值的情况,这时候取值的进程将会等待,直到得到足够的random 值。
rubbitxiao@szmce15:~$ time dd if=/dev/random of=1.dmp bs=1024k count=100 &
[1] 25398
这时dd的进程将会hang住等待足够的random值
rubbitxiao@szmce15:~$ ps
PID TTY TIME CMD
24315 pts/11 00:00:00 bash
25398 pts/11 00:00:00 bash
25399 pts/11 00:00:00 dd
25400 pts/11 00:00:00 ps
用strace跟踪dd进程在做什么

以上可以看出,从/dev/random读取(100*1024K个)随机数,由于中间会阻塞(dd hang),所以总计花了23分钟27秒才完成。为什么会花费这么长的时间,因为它的随机数的提供是依赖与外部中断事件的,如果没有足够多中断事件,就会阻塞,其实为了加速/dev/random提供随机数的速度,你可以通过操作设备的外设,让其产生大量的中断(如网络传输数据,按键,移动鼠标等)。
是否有足够的熵来用于产生随机数,可以通过如下命令来查看:
cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail
rubbitxiao@szmce15:~$ cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail
277
接下来我们看/dev/urandom,从它那里取同样多的随机数,
rubbitxiao@szmce15:~$
rubbitxiao@szmce15:~$ time dd if=/dev/urandom of=1.dmp bs=1024k count=100
100+0 records in
100+0 records out
104857600 bytes (105 MB) copied, 6.38387 s, 16.4 MB/s
real 0m6.385s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m6.364s
rubbitxiao@szmce15:~$
却只需要花费6.385秒,同样的机器上,/dev/urandom不受interrupts的限制,即使没有足够的interrupt它也能通过 random number generator产生足够的输出值,所以它不会导致dd hang
至此可以看出/dev/urandom与/dev/random的区别,前者不受外部中断的影响,照样可以产生随机数,而后者则受系统外部中断的影响,所以如果取较多随机数,可能会导致应用会hang住。在我们开篇的那个log,就是属于这个问题。
还遇见了这个问题,log如下
Configuration file: /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf
Using interface wlp4s0 with hwaddr 3c:33:00:f6:67:2b and ssid "Codz"
random: Cannot read from /dev/random: Resource temporarily unavailable
random: Only 0/20 bytes of strong random data available from /dev/random
random: Not enough entropy pool available for secure operations
WPA: Not enough entropy in random pool for secure operations - update keys later when the first station connects
wlp4s0: interface state UNINITIALIZED->ENABLED
wlp4s0: AP-ENABLED
总得来说都是random出了问题,最终的解决方法是:
mv /dev/random /dev/random.orig
ln -s /dev/urandom /dev/random
使用urandom产生随机数
