*** 5,25 **** NAME n2rng - Ultra-SPARC T2 random number generator device driver DESCRIPTION The n2rng device driver is a multi-threaded, loadable hardware driver ! supporting hardware assisted random numbers. This support is built into ! the Ultra-SPARC T2 CMT processor. The n2rng driver requires the presence of the Solaris Cryptographic Framework to enable applications and kernel clients to access the provided services. CONFIGURATION You configure the n2rng driver by defining properties in ! /platform/sun4v/kernel/drv/n2cp.conf which override the default settings. The following property is supported: nostats Disables the generation of statistics. The nostats property may be used to help --- 5,25 ---- NAME n2rng - Ultra-SPARC T2 random number generator device driver DESCRIPTION The n2rng device driver is a multi-threaded, loadable hardware driver ! supporting hardware assisted random numbers.
