 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

 CRYPTO STATISTICS
        Solaris crypto drivers must implement statistics variables. Statistics
