Linux kernel source tree
The Rockchip RK3576 SoC uses a new hardware random number generator IP.
It's also used on the Rockchip RK3562 and the Rockchip RK3528.
It has several modes of operation and self-checking features that are
not implemented here. For starters, it has a DRNG output, which is an
AES-CTR pseudo-random number generator that can be reseeded from the
true entropy regularly.
However, it also allows for access of the true entropy generator
directly. This entropy is generated from an oscillator.
There are several configuration registers which we don't touch here. The
oscillator can be switched between a "CRO" and "STR" oscillator, and the
length of the oscillator can be configured.
The hardware also supports some automatic continuous entropy quality
checking, which is also not implemented in this driver for the time
being.
The output as-is has been deemed sufficient to be useful:
rngtest: starting FIPS tests...
rngtest: bits received from input: 20000032
rngtest: FIPS 140-2 successes: 997
rngtest: FIPS 140-2 failures: 3

rngtest: FIPS tests speed: (min=44.773; avg=64.561; max=96.820)Mibits/s
rngtest: Program run time: 23507723 microseconds
Stretching the entropy can then be left up to Linux's actual entropy
pool.

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 reStructuredText 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.
