Doug,
At this point what are you asking for?
* To run better_than_nothing() before feed_dev_random() with
${entropy_file}?
I addressed that in Message-ID: <[email protected]>,
jhb in <[email protected]>, and RW in
<[email protected]>.
* To not run 'postrandom' to delete ${entropy_file}?
I addressed that in Message-ID: <[email protected]>
and <[email protected]>.
Our our own sys/dev/random/nehemiah.c follows this advice:
...
* key, IV and the data are all read directly from the hardware RNG.
* All of these are used precisely once.
*/
As does OpenBSD.
* To run 'ps' twice in better_than_nothing()?
I've addressed that in <[email protected]> &
<[email protected]>, and Ian Lepore in
<[email protected]>.
