I think that in hw_rng machines something like this is good (not via-rng):
#!/bin/bash # # chkconfig: 2345 20 80 # description: Rngd daemon\ # processname: rngd # pidfile: /var/run/rngd.pid # config: /etc/sysconfig/rngd
# source function library . /etc/init.d/functions
RETVAL=0
start() { echo -n $"Starting rngd services: " modprobe via-rng /sbin/rngd -b -o /dev/random -r /dev/hwrng }
stop() { echo -n $"Kill rngd services: " killproc rngd }
case "$1" in start) start ;; stop) stop ;; restart|reload) stop start ;; condrestart) if [ -f /var/lock/subsys/rngd ]; then stop start fi ;; status) status rngd RETVAL=$? ;; *) echo $"Usage: $0 {start|stop|restart|condrestart|status}" exit 1 esac
exit $RETVAL
