| ---help--- |
| Hardware Random Number Generator Core infrastructure. |
| |
| To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the |
| module will be called rng-core. This provides a device |
| that's usually called /dev/hw_random, and which exposes one |
| of possibly several hardware random number generators. |
| |
| These hardware random number generators do not feed directly |
| into the kernel's random number generator. That is usually |
| handled by the "rngd" daemon. Documentation/hw_random.txt |
| has more information. |
| |
| If unsure, say Y. |
| |
| config HW_RANDOM_TIMERIOMEM |
| tristate "Timer IOMEM HW Random Number Generator support" |
| depends on HW_RANDOM && HAS_IOMEM |
| ---help--- |
| This driver provides kernel-side support for a generic Random |
| Number Generator used by reading a 'dumb' iomem address that |
| is to be read no faster than, for example, once a second; |
| the default FPGA bitstream on the TS-7800 has such functionality. |
| |
| To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the |
| module will be called timeriomem-rng. |
