SYNOPSIS
vrng0 at vbus?
DESCRIPTION
The vrng driver provides support for the
random number generation service provided by the UltraSPARC Hypervisor as
found on sun4v systems.
Driven by periodic checks for available data from the generator,
vrng supplies entropy to the
random(4) driver for common usage.

BUGS

periodic “health checks” when running in a Trusted Domain, but
currently does not.
