Subject: [PATCH 0/3] random driver improvements
Date: Tue, 10 Jun 2014 23:30:17 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1402457420-2527-1-git-send-email-tytso@mit.edu> (raw)
After going through a very long thread, and trying to work out things in
words, I was frustrated enough that I decided a good way to improve the
conversation was to do it in code instead of words.
I don't think any of this should be controversial...

Theodore Ts'o (3):
random: always update the entropy pool under the spinlock
random: remove unneeded hash of a portion of the entropy pool
random: only update the last_pulled time if we actually transferred
entropy
