| 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. |
