53 * rng_backend_request_entropy:
54 * @s: the backend to request entropy from
55 * @size: the number of bytes of data to request
56 * @receive_entropy: a function to be invoked when entropy is available
57 * @opaque: data that should be passed to @receive_entropy
59 * This function is used by the front-end to request entropy from an entropy
60 * source. This function can be called multiple times before @receive_entropy
61 * is invoked with different values of @receive_entropy and @opaque. The
62 * backend will queue each request and handle appropriately.
64 * The backend does not need to pass the full amount of data to @receive_entropy
65 * but will pass a value greater than 0.
