From 056a68cea01edfa78b3474af1bfa39cc6bcc7bee Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Jason A. Donenfeld" Date: Fri, 30 Sep 2022 16:01:38 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] mips: allow firmware to pass RNG seed to kernel Nearly all other firmware environments have some way of passing a RNG seed to initialize the RNG: DTB's rng-seed, EFI's RNG protocol, m68k's bootinfo block, x86's setup_data, and so forth. This adds something similar for MIPS, which will allow various firmware environments, bootloaders, and hypervisors to pass an RNG seed to initialize the kernel's RNG. Signed-off-by: Jason A.
