Anyone ever tried to use the Random Number Generator on the MPC8541E? I can't get it to behave, so if you've used it and there were any tricks, I'd appreciate some insite. I'm using in Linux 2.4.xx. Thanks. -stv -- /* * Steve Iribarne * Software Engineer * (aka Grunt) */

the only problem I ran into was I needed to make sure the accesses to the pool were in 64 bits (two sequential 32bit ioreads), after of course resetting the device properly. Feel free to reference talitos_rng_init() and talitos_read_random() from here: http://git.openswan.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=klips;a=blob;h=ec8ccfdb5873e0c583cc50cf23a3521df6834ccd;hb=ocf_v2.6.18;f=crypto/ocf/talitos/talitos.c
I'm using in Linux 2.4.xx.
yeah..the talitos ocf driver needs some modding to work with 2.4, sorry 'bout that. Kim
