CVS commit: src/share/man/man9



Module Name:    src
Committed By:   riastradh
Date:           Thu Feb 19 15:38:30 UTC 2015

Modified Files:
        src/share/man/man9: cprng.9

Log Message:
Clarify advice about when to use what parts of cprng(9).

Add security model to specify the difference between cprng_strong and
cprng_fast.

Fix code references.  cprng_fast now uses ChaCha8, not RC4.

XXX Would have been nice if they had been called cprng and cprng_weak
to reduce confusion about which one to use, or even random and
weakrandom.  Too late for that now, though.
