Subject: Re: [cryptography] urandom vs random
Just appeared on the GnuPG list:
NeuG 0.11 was released. NeuG is an implementation of True Random
Number Generator based on quantization error of ADC of STM32F103.
It is basically intended to be used as a part of Gnuk, but we also
have standalone USB CDC-ACM version (you can get random stream from
/dev/ttyACM0). Standalone version is useful to feed entropy to
/dev/random on GNU/Linux. Its generation speed is >= 50kB/sec, and
it's more when connected to USB 2.0 Hub.
The output is tested NIST STS 2.1.1 and Dieharder 3.31.1.
Highlights are:
* Replacement of kernel (thread library)
Instead of ChibiOS/RT, we now use Chopstx.
* Improved performance
The output of random numbers got faster than the previous
implementation by 30% or so.
* Unsupported targets
CQ_STARM, STBEE, STBEE Mini, and STM32_PRIMER2 are not
supported in this release, but porting should be easy.
Here are some links for NeuG, Gnuk and FST-01 (the hardware).
