David Brownell537878d2008-03-24 12:29:51 -070012 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.

355 Generator hardware found on APM X-Gene SoC.
356
357 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
358 module will be called xgene_rng.
359
360 If unsure, say Y.

366 tristate "Hardware random number generator"
367 help
368 This option enables UML's "hardware" random number generator. It
369 attaches itself to the host's /dev/random, supplying as much entropy
370 as the host has, rather than the small amount the UML gets from its
371 own drivers. It registers itself as a standard hardware random number
372 generator, major 10, minor 183, and the canonical device name is
373 /dev/hwrng.
374 The way to make use of this is to install the rng-tools package
375 (check your distro, or download from
376 http://sourceforge.net/projects/gkernel/). rngd periodically reads
377 /dev/hwrng and injects the entropy into /dev/random.
