linux prng work!
so some good news has prompted me to finally post here, to share what I’m doing with everyone, and to see if people are interested.
right now I’m working on improving the pseudorandom number generator and entropy harvester in the linux kernel. I’ve just moved my work from 2.4 to 2.6, and am hoping to have a stable version of the new PRNG out in the next few months.
if anyone is into this sort of stuff, whether the technical aspects of PRNGs or just kernel hacking in general, I’d love to find more people to talk to about it, so feel free to drop me a line!
