Hi,
I am virtualizing with KVM via libvirt and virt-manager. To have decent amounts of Entropy in the guest, I tried loading virtio_rng in a running VM. Despite the module being loaded, I didn't get any log entries, and also no /dev/hwrng.
Do I need to enable the virtualized random generator in libvirt/virt-manager? If so, how do I do that? Is the support for this rather recent feature already implemented in qemu-kvm 1.0, libvirt 0.9.12 and virt-manager 0.9.1?
No host side support for this exists in QEMU/KVM yet http://www.mail-archive.com/qemu-devel@nongnu.org/msg117461.html Daniel -- |: http://berrange.com -o- http://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: http://entangle-photo.org -o- http://live.gnome.org/gtk-vnc :|
