From 7a5091d58419b4e5222abce58a40c072786ea1d6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "H. Peter Anvin" Date: Sun, 11 May 2014 20:25:20 -0700 Subject: x86, rdrand: When nordrand is specified, disable RDSEED as well One can logically expect that when the user has specified "nordrand", the user doesn't want any use of the CPU random number generator, neither RDRAND nor RDSEED, so disable both.
