hwrng: nomadik - Add hardware RNG driver

2009-12-19T11:45:43+00:00

The hardware random number generator by ST is used in both the Nomadik 8815 SoC and the U8500. It returns 16 bits every 400ns with automatic delay if a read is issued too early. It depends on PLAT_NOMADIK. Signed-off-by: Alessandro Rubini Acked-by: Andrea Gallo Acked-by: Matt Mackall Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

hwrng: timeriomem - New driver

2009-02-22T04:03:56+00:00

Some hardware platforms, the TS-7800[1] is one for example, can supply the kernel with an entropy source, albeit a slow one for TS-7800 users, by just reading a particular IO address. This source must not be read above a certain rate otherwise the quality suffers. The driver is then hooked into by calling platform_device_(register|add|del) passing a structure similar to: ------ static struct timeriomem_rng_data ts78xx_ts_rng_data = { .address = (u32 *__iomem) TS_RNG, .period = 1000000, /* one second */ }; static struct platform_device ts78xx_ts_rng_device = { .name = "timeriomem_rng", .id = -1, .dev = { .platform_data = &ts78xx_ts_rng_data, }, .num_resources = 0, }; ------ [1] http://www.embeddedarm.com/products/board-detail.php?product=TS-7800 Signed-off-by: Alexander Clouter Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

virtio: An entropy device, as suggested by hpa.

2008-05-30T05:09:44+00:00

Note that by itself, having a "hardware" random generator does very little: you should probably run "rngd" in your guest to feed this into the kernel entropy pool. Included: virtio_rng: dont use vmalloced addresses for virtio If virtio_rng is build as a module, random_data is an address in vmalloc space. As virtio expects guest real addresses, this can cause any kind of funny behaviour, so lets allocate random_data dynamically with kmalloc.
