devr-virtio.so

Runs on:

QNX Neutrino

Options:

delay=seconds

Provide entropy to the random service at this interval, in seconds. (Range 1-300s, default 15s).

prio=priority

The minimum priority for the entropy collection thread.

mem=address

For ARM targets, the MMIO address of the Virtio RNG (random number generator) device. To obtain address, in the QEMU console, enter info qtree.

Description:

The devr-virtio.so shared object reads entropy from a Virtio paravirtual RNG (random number generator) and provides it to the random service PRNG (pseudo-random number generator).

For example, to enable the Virtio RNG interface for a QEMU virtual machine, add the following option to the qemu-system-target command line:

-object rng-random,filename=/dev/urandom,id=rng0

For x86_64 architectures, add the following additional option:

-device virtio-rng-pci,rng=rng0

For AArch64 and ARM architectures, add the following additional option:

-device virtio-rng-device,rng=rng0

Examples:

random -t -l devr-virtio.so:mem=0x1c130200

random -t -l devr-virtio.so
