[PATCH v2 1/2] hwrng: iproc-rng200 - Set the quality value

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

 



The value was estimaded with ea_iid[1] using on 10485760 bytes read from
the RNG via /dev/hwrng. The min-entropy value calculated using the most
common value estimate (NIST SP 800-90P[2], section 6.3.1) was 7.964464.
