control: reassign -1 systemd 239-13 I hereby reassign the bug to systemd. The problem is that OpenSSL is now using getrandom() for entropy which is not (yet) ready and therefore OpenSSH needs longer for startup by simply waiting for entropy.
Theodore Y. Ts'o suggested adding hw-rng to KVM/virt setups [0]. Everything else should work just "fine". Either way there is nothing OpenSSL wise that can be done. A similar issue [1] has been reported once GnuTLS which to getrandom(). Systemd wise there is https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/4271 https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/10621 where people want systemd to systemd to credit entropy. I'm not much a fan of that but that is a different story. [0] https://bugs.debian.org/912087#118 [1] https://bugs.debian.org/837597 Sebastian
