Subject: [PATCH] hwrng: amd - report partial reads in non-blocking mode
Date: Wed, 23 Sep 2026 22:12:58 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260923201259.90336-2-blum@kernel.org> (raw)
amd_rng_read() returns 0 if no more data is available, even if some data
was already copied to the output buffer. Return the number of copied
bytes instead.
Fixes: 85962d2248fa ("hwrng: amd - Convert to new hwrng read() API")
