[PATCH 2/2] ath9k: disable RNG by default

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Miaoqing Pan <miaoqing@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

ath9k RNG will dominates all the noise sources from the real HW
RNG, disable it by default. But we strongly recommand to enable
it if the system without HW RNG, especially on embedded systems.
