Subject: [PATCH][RFC] random: show /dev/random statistics per interface, kernel 2.6.26.1
Date: Monday, August 18, 2008 - 1:25 pm

From: Stanichenko Marat <mstanichenko@gmail.com>

Add the interface that shows the amount of entropy generated via the 
interfaces and also the amount consumed. This patch adds two files in 
proc. The first of them shows the entropy generated per interface, the 
second one - the amount consumed from blocking (/dev/random)  and 
nonblocking (/dev/urandom) pools.

This patch is an attempt to realize "/dev/random statistics" project of 
kernel newbies community.
