This patch documents XML elements used for (basic) support of virtual
RNG devices.
In the devices section in the domain XML users may specify:
For the default 'random' backend:
<devices>
<rng model='virtio'>
<backend model='random'>/dev/urandom</backend>
</rng>
</devices>
For the slightly more advanced EGD backend:
<devices>
<rng model='virtio'>
<backend model='egd' type='udp'>
<!-- this is a definition of a character device -->
<source mode='bind' service='1234'/>
<source mode='connect' host='1.2.3.4' service='1234'/>
<!-- or other valid character device configuration -->
</backend>
</rng>
</devices>
For the planned random daemon/pool:
<devices>
<rng model='virtio'>
<backend model='pool' pool='poolname'>class</backend>
</rng>
</devices>
to enable the RNG device for guests.
