+) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
|
||||
If an EGD or PRNGD is running and enough entropy is returned, automatic
|
||||
seeding like with /dev/[u]random will be performed.
|
||||
Positions tried are: /etc/entropy, /var/run/egd-pool.
|
||||
If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
|
||||
entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
|
||||
be queried.
|
||||
The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
|
||||
/etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
|
||||
when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
