hello.
we have a qestion need your help
we test on the imx8mq with Linux 4.14.78_1.0.0 release(yocot), the entropy value is low, by cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail
we want to improve the value (for exsample to 2000), how to do ?

Hello. igor
thanks you very much.
The web link you provided is the debian system for rng-tools.
The imx8mq run the yocto system , how to do for rng-tool and the entropy_avail vavlue ?
Best regards
Feng
Hello igor,
The entropy_avail vavlue can be changed to 3000, according to your instructions
thanks
