Re: [PATCH v2 0/2] [RFC] virtio-rng entropy leak reporting feature

[Jason A. Donenfeld]

You sent a v2, but I'm not back until the 11th to provide comments on
v1. I still think this isn't the right direction, as this needs tie-ins
to the rng to actually be useful. Please stop posting new versions of
this for now, so that somebody doesn't accidentally merge it; that'd be
a big mistake. I'll paste what I wrote you prior:

| Hi Babis,
| 
| As I mentioned to you privately this week, I'm about to be out of town,
| so I won't be able to look at this until I'm back in a few weeks. I
| appreciate your patience.
| 
| But as a cursory look, I'm happy that you've written the hardware-side
| code for this. That's a great starting point. The plumbing is not so
| nice, though. This needs to be integrated more closely with random.c
| itself, similar to how vmgenid works.
| 
| When I'm back in a few weeks, I'll see if I can either write a
| description of what I have in mind, or simply integrate the useful
| hardware work here into an expanded patch series.
| 
| [Please don't merge anything for now.]

So: you wrote some maybe useful hardware code. The rest is wrong. And we
haven't even concluded discussions on whether the virtio interface is
the right one. In fact, I had previously asked if we could schedule this
all until March. Marco from your team then sent an impatient email, so I
said, alright, what about Feb 11 when I'm back. That's annoying for me
but I figured I'd just shuffle everything around and prioritize this.
Then, instead of waiting for that, you posted v1 of this patchset the
next day. I asked you again. And now, while I'm away on the first
holiday in a while with very little connectivity and no laptop, you post
a v2. So I'm really annoyed. In order to avoid all doubt about this, let
me then just NACK this, and I'll lift the nack when I'm back:
