Hi

One for you filesystem types; of all the parts of a struct vnode,
which are the most dynamic? Which would be the most usable as
input for an entropy collector running in the namei cache?

The ones I am most interested in are the simple types; pointers,
ints (short or long) or chars. Volatile would be good :-)

I am working on improving /dev/random, and in my Copious Free Time,
also trying to understand the kernel. :-)
