I think that points to my patch series. My patch series which provide a complete separate, API and ABI compliant drop in replacement of /dev/random, nobody from the gatekeepers cared to even answer. It would not touch the existing code. After waiting some time without changing the code (e.g. after Andi Lutomirski commented), I got no answer at all from the gatekeepers, not even any indication in what direction I should move if something was not desired in the patch series. Thus I continued adding the features that I think are necessary and for which I received comments from mathematicians. What else should I do? With the patch set v35 of my patch series, I see all my goals finally achieved at I expect the code to be stable from here on. The last one was the hardest: to get rid of all non-cryptographic conditioning operations and yet retain performance en par or even superior to the existing /dev/random implementation. Ciao Stephan
