19 * struct hwrng - Hardware Random Number Generator driver
20 * @name: Unique RNG name.
21 * @init: Initialization callback (can be NULL).
22 * @cleanup: Cleanup callback (can be NULL).
23 * @data_present: Callback to determine if data is available
24 * on the RNG. If NULL, it is assumed that
Ian Molton99965082009-12-01 14:47:32 +080025 * there is always data available. *OBSOLETE*
Michael Buesch844dd052006-06-26 00:24:59 -070026 * @data_read: Read data from the RNG device.
27 * Returns the number of lower random bytes in "data".
Sasha Levin988acec2011-05-25 15:12:20 +030028 * Must not be NULL. *OBSOLETE*
Ian Molton99965082009-12-01 14:47:32 +080029 * @read: New API. drivers can fill up to max bytes of data
30 * into the buffer. The buffer is aligned for any type.
Michael Buesch844dd052006-06-26 00:24:59 -070031 * @priv: Private data, for use by the RNG driver.
