From: Theodore Ts'o Subject: [PATCH 5/5] random: add new ioctl RNDRESEEDCRNG Date: Thu, 12 Apr 2018 21:30:46 -0400 Message-ID: <20180413013046.404-5-tytso@mit.edu> References: <20180413013046.404-1-tytso@mit.edu> Cc: Linux Kernel Developers List , Theodore Ts'o , stable@kernel.org To: linux-crypto@vger.kernel.org Return-path: In-Reply-To: <20180413013046.404-1-tytso@mit.edu> Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org List-Id: linux-crypto.vger.kernel.org Add a new ioctl which forces the the crng to be reseeded.
