[PATCH] KEYS: asym_tpm: Switch to get_random_bytes()

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

 



Only the kernel random pool should be used for generating random numbers.
TPM contributes to that pool among the other sources of entropy. In here it
is not, agreed, absolutely critical because TPM is what is trusted anyway
but in order to remove tpm_get_random() we need to first remove all the
call sites.
