Linux 4.6, also tried 4.7, qemu 2.6, using this C program:
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <syscall.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
char buf[16];
int fd;
if (argc != 2)
return 1;
for (int i = 0; i < atoi(argv[1]); i++) {
sleep(1);
if ((fd = open("/dev/random", O_RDONLY)) == -1)
return 2;
if (read(fd, buf, sizeof(buf)) < 1)
return 3;
if (close(fd) == -1)
return 4;
}
sleep(2);
if (syscall(SYS_getrandom, buf, sizeof(buf), 0) == -1)
return 5;
return 0;
}

Identical command but replaced 2 iterations with 3:

(irrelevant kernel messages have been removed for clarity)
Removing the calls to "sleep" produces similar results except without
sleeping or the corresponding strace output. Running both commands
repeatedly also produces similar results; the timing of the getrandom
return and "random: nonblocking pool is initialized" message
is different for each run, but it always takes 90-100 seconds.
Sorry if these aren't the right lists or if this is a known issue.
