This patch moves the definition of struct rnd_state and the inline __seed() function to linux/random.h. It renames the static __random32() function to prandom32() and exports it for use in modules. prandom32() is useful as a privately-seeded pseudo random number generator that can give the same result every time it is initialized. For FCoE FC-BB-6 VN2VN mode self-selected unique FC address generation, we need an pseudo-random number generator seeded with the 64-bit world-wide port name. A truly random generator or one seeded with randomness won't do because the same sequence of numbers should be generated each time we boot or the link comes up. A prandom32_seed() inline function is added to the header file. It is inlined not for speed, but so the function won't be expanded in the base kernel, but only in the module that uses it.

This is a maximally equidistributed combined Tausworthe generator

based on code from GNU Scientific Library 1.5 (30 Jun 2004)

x_n = (s1_n ^ s2_n ^ s3_n)

s1_{n+1} = (((s1_n & 4294967294) <<12) ^ (((s1_n <<13) ^ s1_n) >>19))

s3_{n+1} = (((s3_n & 4294967280) <<17) ^ (((s3_n << 3) ^ s3_n) >>11))

The period of this generator is about 2^88.

There is an erratum in the paper "Tables of Maximally
|
|
Equidistributed Combined LFSR Generators", Mathematics of
|
|
Computation, 68, 225 (1999), 261--269:

... the k_j most significant bits of z_j must be non-
|
|
zero, for each j. (Note: this restriction also applies to the
|
|
computer code given in [4], but was mistakenly not mentioned in
|
|
that paper.)
|
|
|
|
This affects the seeding procedure by imposing the requirement
|
|
s1 > 1, s2 > 7, s3 > 15.
