Subject: [PATCH 3/5] hpet: wire up entropy generation function
Date: Mon, 13 Jun 2011 18:06:56 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1308002818-27802-4-git-send-email-jarod@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1308002818-27802-1-git-send-email-jarod@redhat.com>
HPET is high enough resolution that we can use its low-order byte to
stir new data into the random number generator entropy pool.
