21 * struct hwrng - Hardware Random Number Generator driver
22 * @name: Unique RNG name.
23 * @init: Initialization callback (can be NULL).
24 * @cleanup: Cleanup callback (can be NULL).
25 * @data_present: Callback to determine if data is available
26 * on the RNG. If NULL, it is assumed that
27 * there is always data available. *OBSOLETE*
28 * @data_read: Read data from the RNG device.
29 * Returns the number of lower random bytes in "data".
30 * Must not be NULL. *OBSOLETE*
31 * @read: New API. drivers can fill up to max bytes of data
32 * into the buffer. The buffer is aligned for any type.
33 * @priv: Private data, for use by the RNG driver.
34 * @quality: Estimation of true entropy in RNG's bitstream
35 * (per mill).
