Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard --- It might be worth doing this somewhere common, but the only place I could find (unflatten_device_tree) is almost certainly too early in the boot process. diff --git a/arch/powerpc/kernel/setup-common.c b/arch/powerpc/kernel/setup-common.c index 63d051f..6914851 100644 --- a/arch/powerpc/kernel/setup-common.c +++ b/arch/powerpc/kernel/setup-common.c @@ -35,6 +35,7 @@ #include #include #include +#include #include #include #include @@ -752,3 +753,13 @@ void arch_setup_pdev_archdata(struct platform_device *pdev) pdev->dev.dma_mask = &pdev->archdata.dma_mask; set_dma_ops(&pdev->dev, &dma_direct_ops); } + +/* Feed entire flattened device tree into the random pool */ +static int __init add_fdt_randomness(void) +{ + add_device_randomness(initial_boot_params, + initial_boot_params->totalsize); + + return 0; +} +core_initcall(add_fdt_randomness);
