Subject: [PATCH 4/6] crypto: drbg - add async seeding operation
Date: Wed, 22 Apr 2015 21:24:07 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <9795146.aMrfnC05Xd@myon.chronox.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <5054521.el7mZro33c@myon.chronox.de>

The async seeding operation is triggered during initalization right
after the first non-blocking seeding is completed. As required by the
asynchronous operation of random.c, a callback function is provided that
is triggered by random.c once entropy is available. That callback
function performs the actual seeding of the DRBG.
