Might I humbly suggest that the kernel start providing some metatada about the quality of the random source that userspace can consume? Preferably by a new ioctl, so that it will fit naturally if we ever extend /dev/hwrng to support more than one source? That would allow for auto tunning to be implemented in userspace... -- Henrique Holschuh -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-crypto" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
