virtio-rng: hardware random number generator device
The Linux kernel already has a virtio-rng driver, this is the device implementation. When the guest asks for entropy from the virtio hwrng, it puts a buffer in the vq. We then put entropy into that buffer, and push it back to the guest. Signed-off-by: Amit Shah <amit.shah@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com> --- aliguori: converted to new RngBackend interface aliguori: remove entropy needed event aliguori: fix migration
