This is a collection of fixes and cleanups for the Linux /dev/random driver including:
- more robust/correct entropy accounting and reseed logic - starvation avoidance for simultaneous /dev/random and /dev/urandom users - remove entropy batching - wakeup bug fix - remove various legacy code - remove i386isms
I've broken this into a bunch of very simple bits, so I'm afraid the patch count is rather high by non-gregkh standards.
These patches have been tested by various people since pre-2.6.0 and have been in my -tiny tree since its inception. Andrew, please queue these in -mm for wider testing/review. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
