Subject: Creating the same random numbers
Date: Sat, 29 Jan 2011 15:09:38 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110129140936.GA3225@yoda> (raw)

Hi,

for my evaluation of different kernel modules which rely on randomness I
need the same set of random numbers for each of them. 

Is there any chance that I can get a random number which depends on a
kind of seed value? So if I start with the same seed value, the same
random numbers should be generated. 

Is there any way in the kernel to achieve this?

Thanks for your hints,
Andreas Leppert
