for my evaluation of different kernel modules which rely on randomness I need the same set of random numbers for each of them.
Is there any chance that I can get a random number which depends on a kind of seed value? So if I start with the same seed value, the same random numbers should be generated.
If the same numbers are generated, then how can you call it random?
I want to compare different kernel modules which all require some data based on randomness. But I can only compare them correctly, if they get the same random data at a certain stage. I do only need this (the "fixed random numbers") for my evaluation!
