Subject: [PATCH v11 2/5] random: conditionally compile code depending on LRNG
Date: Sun, 14 May 2017 16:28:00 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <74740507.fE4fldbO5y@positron.chronox.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <7746835.7W6fIIgSam@positron.chronox.de>
When selecting the LRNG for compilation, disable the legacy /dev/random
implementation.
The LRNG is a drop-in replacement for the legacy /dev/random which
implements the same in-kernel and user space API. Only the hooks of
/dev/random into other parts of the kernel need to be disabled.
