This PR adds a /dev/urandom file to the devfs registry when periph_hwrng is available.

  • removed hwrng_init() from auto_init
  • called hwrng_init() when opening /dev/hwrng
  • added /dev/urandom with random module

Sorry for the very long delay in reviewing this PR.
I updated the preprocessor guards with the move from FEATURES_PERIPH_xxx to MODULE_PERIPH_xxx. This PR needs a rebase, but otherwise looks fine. Tested on Mulle with both urandom and hwrng by adding FEATURES_REQUIRED += periph_hwrng and USEMODULE += random to examples/default/Makefile.
I don't know if this code is being built by any of the CI tests though, we should either add a new test in tests or add this to one of the existing tests or examples.

Feel free to squash

squashed, and added a test in devfs unittests. I don't have hardware with me right now, so I didn't run the /dev/hwrng unittest.

I don't think we can do any tests on the actual bytes that are produced by the read of the /dev/urandom, /dev/hwrng file, but only test to see that the return value from read is correct and that the bytes they are at least not all unchanged. We should not assume they are all changed though.

The unit tests completed successfully on Mulle, though the check needs to be changed to avoid false negatives depending on the hwrng data

This is based on a quite old base commit, could you rebase please while fixing the unit test?

Looks good, what do you think about using a pseudomodule for the devfs nodes?

Rather unrelated, but this whole test suite should go into its own application.

Needs rebase. @gebart @vincent-d are there any plans to continue this?

@vincent-d still active and care to rebase this one? Just tested after rebasing, works -> would merge.
Otherwise I can take this one over - or we close this one?!

@smlng active I am, though not much on RIOT recently ;)

If it's simply a rebase, I can do. If it needs more changes, I'm afraid won't have time.

@gebart not sure if you are available, but if so: please recheck and ACK or dismiss you review. I'll leave this open for a few days but would then dismiss your review and merge this.

This requires having periph_hwrng for now running unittests. Found during 2019.07-RC1 testing.

@cladmi: you refer to the fact that now fewer boards can run the unit tests, bc some do not have the required feature, right? That's kind of the problem with the monolithic unittest binary (IMHO)?!

The release specs task 01-ci Task #4 - Unittests on iotlab-m3 now fails as the unittests cannot run on iotlab-m3 anymore, one of our reference arm platforms.
The tests-core are in there.

And yes it is a problem with being monolithic. I will do a PR to split this test out for the release.
