David Brownell | 537878d | 2008-03-24 12:29:51 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 12 | module will be called rng-core. This provides a device |
| 13 | that's usually called /dev/hw_random, and which exposes one |
| 14 | of possibly several hardware random number generators. |
| 15 | |
| 16 | These hardware random number generators do not feed directly |
| 17 | into the kernel's random number generator. That is usually |
| 18 | handled by the "rngd" daemon. Documentation/hw_random.txt |
| 19 | has more information. |
