  • - Let it update the state of all CPUs. The network stack goes
    into pains to feed the current IP addresses in, but it is not very
    effective if that is only done for some random CPU instead of all.
    So change it to feed bits into all CPUs. I decided to do that lockless
    because well somewhat random results are ok.

    v2: Drop rename so that this patch doesn't depend on x86 maintainers

  • Make net_random() more widely available by calling it random32

    akpm: hopefully this will permit the removal of carta_random32. That needs
    confirmation from Stephane - this code looks somewhat more computationally
    expensive, and has a different (ie: callee-stateful) interface.

    [akpm@osdl.org: lots of build fixes, cleanups]
