Problem Description:

secure_tcp_sequence_number is used by the ipt_TARPIT module in netfilter.org's patch-o-matic-ng. Sometime between 2.6.20.11 and 2.6.23.1, drivers/char/random.c stopped exporting it. I'd like it back, please.

Steps to reproduce:

If your patch your kernel anyway, just export it yourself.

Please close.

Hello,
I also bumped into the same situation. I would like the secure_tcp_sequence_number exported without having to manually edit the drivers/char/random.c file.

Cheers,
