Mark Murray	7aa4389a6c	o Fix a horrible bug where small reads (< 8 bytes) would return the ... wrong bytes. o Improve the public interface; use void* instead of char* or u_int64_t to pass arbitrary data around. Submitted by: kris ("horrible bug")	2000-07-25 21:18:47 +00:00
Mark Murray	c90a8fc9a5	Clean this up with some BDE-inspired fixes. ... o Make the comments KNF-compliant. o Use nanotime instead of getnanotime; the manpage lies about the kern.timecounter.method - it has been removed. o Fix the ENTROPYSOURCE const permanently. o Make variable names more consistent. o Make function prototypes more consistent. Some more needs to be done; to follow.	2000-07-23 11:08:16 +00:00
Mark Murray	585ebe2b41	Yarrow tweaks; separate the fast and slow reseed tasks so that they don't ... stomp on each other; provide constant names (as enums) for the harvester to use (makes it more self-documenting).	2000-07-09 11:52:12 +00:00
Mark Murray	c9ec235ca1	Add entropy gathering code. This will work whether the module is ... compiled in or loaded.	2000-07-07 09:03:59 +00:00
Mark Murray	4db9ae91ff	New machine-independant /dev/random driver. ... This is work-in-progress, and the entropy-gathering routines are not yet present. As such, this should be viewed as a pretty reasonable PRNG with _ABSOLUTELY_NO_ security!! Entropy gathering will be the subject of ongoing work. This is written as a module, and as such is unloadable, but there is no refcounting done. I would like to use something like device_busy(9) to achieve this (eventually). Lots of useful ideas from: bde, phk, Jeroen van Gelderen Reviewed by: dfr	2000-06-25 08:38:58 +00:00
