CVS commit: src



Module Name:    src
Committed By:   riastradh
Date:           Sun Mar 20 18:19:58 UTC 2022

Modified Files:
        src/share/man/man4: rnd.4
        src/share/man/man7: entropy.7
        src/sys/kern: kern_entropy.c

Log Message:
entropy(9): Improve entropy warning messages and documentation.

- For the main warning message, use less jargon, say `security', and
  cite the entropy(7) man page for further reading.  Document this in
  rnd(4) and entropy(7).

- For the debug-only warning message, say `entropy' only once and omit
  it from the rnd(4) man page -- it's not very important unless you're
  debugging the kernel in which case you probably know what you're
  doing enough to not need the text explained in the man page.
