Yes.. I was reported that it some how got dropped from our 2.4 version of the driver..
DON'T add add_interrupt_randomness, just add "| SA_SAMPLE_RANDOM" to the call to request_irq.

Patch to follow.

Hi,

All hooks for the random ganeration (add_blkdev_randomness() ) are ignored
in the cpqarray / ida driver.
Is a patch available ?
or an other updated driver ?
any hints where to put add_blkdev_randomness() in your driver ?

is add_interrupt_randomness() called on an i386 SMP IO-APCI system ?

Thanks
Manon
