2018-01-08tpm: Move Linux RNG connection to hwrngJason Gunthorpe1-50/+0
The tpm-rng.c approach is completely inconsistent with how the kernel handles hotplug. Instead manage a hwrng device for each TPM. This will cause the kernel to read entropy from the TPM when it is plugged in, and allow access to the TPM rng via /dev/hwrng.

2018-01-08tpm: use struct tpm_chip for tpm_chip_find_get()Jarkko Sakkinen1-1/+1
Device number (the character device index) is not a stable identifier for a TPM chip. That is the reason why every call site passes TPM_ANY_NUM to tpm_chip_find_get(). This commit changes the API in a way that instead a struct tpm_chip instance is given and NULL means the default chip. In addition, this commit refines the documentation to be up to date with the implementation.

2012-08-22hw_random: add support for the TPM chip as a hardware RNG sourceKent Yoder1-0/+50
This driver will make use of any available TPM chip on the system as a hwrng source. Acked-by: David Safford <safford@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Kent Yoder <key@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
