Subject: [PATCH] Generic hardware RNG support
Date: Tue, 28 Feb 2006 12:29:12 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200602281229.12887.mbuesch@freenet.de> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 21951 bytes --]
Andrew, consider inclusion of the following patch into -mm
for further testing, please.
---
This patch adds support for generic Hardware Random Number Generator
drivers. This makes the usage of the bcm43xx internal RNG through
/dev/hwrandom possible.
A patch against bcm43xx for your testing pleasure can be found at:
ftp://ftp.bu3sch.de/misc/bcm43xx-d80211-hwrng.patch
