[PATCH 3/7] random: add interrupt callback to VMBus IRQ handler

From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
Date: 2016-06-13 15:51:08
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: hyper-v/azure core and drivers, random number driver, the rest · Maintainers: "K. Y. Srinivasan", Haiyang Zhang, Wei Liu, Dexuan Cui, Long Li, "Theodore Ts'o", Jason A. Donenfeld, Linus Torvalds

From: Stephan Mueller <redacted>

The Hyper-V Linux Integration Services use the VMBus implementation for
communication with the Hypervisor. VMBus registers its own interrupt
handler that completely bypasses the common Linux interrupt handling.
This implies that the interrupt entropy collector is not triggered.

This patch adds the interrupt entropy collection callback into the VMBus
interrupt handler function.
