2 | Version 5 (April 1, 2014): |
3 | * Support RDRAND capable systems that don't have AES-NI | |
4 | * Man page spelling fixes | |
5 | * Add BUGS document | |
6 | * Don't use fixed AES key for data reduction | |
7 | * Platform: Support x32. x86-64 micro-optimizations. | |
8 | * Fix RDRAND data reduction | |
9 | * Enable RDSEED instruction | |

11 | Version 4 (August 2, 2012): |
12 | * Add RDRAND instruction support | |
13 | * Add -q and -v options for quiet and verbose output | |
14 | * Add -p option for specifying PID file (text file containing daemon's PID) | |
15 | * Disable entropy source if facing continued failures, but be | |
16 | tolerant of the occasional fault. | |
17 | * Default device is now the preferred /dev/hwrng | |
18 | * Do not use TPM device for RNG access, if /dev/hwrng is present | |
19 | (TPM RNG is exported via the kernel, in newer kernels) | |

26 | multiple entropy sources) | |
27 | * change default hardware RNG device name to "/dev/hw_random" | |
