Update of /cvsroot/devil-linux/build/scripts/configuration/help In directory sc8-pr-cvs12.sourceforge.net:/tmp/cvs-serv10478/d/configuration/help Added Files: rng-tools.help Log Message: - added rng-tools --- NEW FILE: rng-tools.help --- CONFIG_RNGTOOLS The rngd daemon acts as a bridge between a Hardware TRNG (true random number generator) such as the ones in some Intel/AMD/VIA chipsets, and the kernel's PRNG (pseudo-random number generator). This increases the bandwidth of the /dev/random device, from a source that does not depend on outside activity. It may also improve the quality (entropy) of the randomness of /dev/random |
