In case the entropy quality is low, there may be less than one bit to credit in the call to add_hwgenerator_randomness(): The number of bytes returned by rng_get_data() multiplied by the current quality (in entropy bits per 1024 bits of input) must be larger than 128 to credit at least one bit. However, imx-rngc.c sets the quality to 19, but may return less than 32 bytes; hid_u2fzero.c sets the quality to 1; and users may override the quality setting manually. In case there is less than one bit to credit, keep track of it and add that credit to the next iteration. Cc: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Cc: Jason A.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
