Without this patch, I don't think we should expose the SMCCC RNG interface via arch_get_random_seed(), given how insanely often it will be called in that case. Note that the KVM patch implements the opposite end of this interface, and is not affected by [1] at all, so that can be taken at any time. _______________________________________________ kvmarm mailing list kvmarm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/mailman/listinfo/kvmarm
