In the first place, I don't like the idea to add a new function
hw_rand() very much.
I think lib/rand.c is just one implementation among
some possible choices.
drivers/crypto/ace_sha.c is another implementation.
How about treating them in the same way?
I mean, srand(), rand(), rand_r()
should be defined in drivers/crypto/ace_sha.c
rather than adding lib/hw_rand.c.
drivers/crypto/ace_sha.c is like this:
void srand(uint seed) {}
unsigned int rand(void)
{
<your hardware rand implementation>
}
unsigned int rand_r(unsigned int *seedp)
{
return rand();
}
lib/Makefile will be changed like this:
--- a/lib/Makefile
+++ b/lib/Makefile
@@ -62,8 +62,6 @@ obj-y += time.o
obj-$(CONFIG_TRACE) += trace.o
obj-$(CONFIG_BOOTP_PXE) += uuid.o
obj-y += vsprintf.o
-obj-$(CONFIG_RANDOM_MACADDR) += rand.o
-obj-$(CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY) += rand.o
-obj-$(CONFIG_CMD_LINK_LOCAL) += rand.o
+obj-$(CONFIG_SW_RAND) += rand.o
It looks like CONFIG_SW_RAND (or CONFIG_EXYNOS_ACE_SHA)
must be added to the following boards.
include/configs/lsxl.h (for CONFIG_RANDOM_MACADDR)
include/configs/MERGERBOX.h (for CONFIG_BOOTP_RAMDOM_DELAY)
include/configs/MVBC_P.h (for CONFIG_BOOTP_RAMDOM_DELAY)
include/configs/MVBLM7.h (for CONFIG_BOOTP_RAMDOM_DELAY)
include/configs/MVSMR.h (for CONFIG_BOOTP_RAMDOM_DELAY)
include/configs/bfin_adi_common.h (for CONFIG_BOOTP_RAMDOM_DELAY)
include/configs/sacsng.h (for CONFIG_BOOTP_RAMDOM_DELAY)
include/config_uncmd_spl.h (for CONFIG_CMD_LINK_LOCAL)
include/configs/a3m071.h (for CONFIG_CMD_LINK_LOCAL)
