Haveged 1.6

Haveged 1.6: Posted Dec 18, 2012; Site issihosts.com; haveged is a daemon that feeds the /dev/random pool on Linux using an adaptation of the HArdware Volatile Entropy Gathering and Expansion algorithm invented at IRISA. The algorithm is self-tuning on machines with cpuid support, and has been tested in both 32-bit and 64-bit environments. The tarball uses the GNU build mechanism, and includes self test targets and a spec file for those who want to build an RPM.; Changes: The runtime test implementation has been corrected to remove an alignment fault which appeared in AIS test0 on arm64 hosts. The build procedure for clock_gettime() support has been altered to provide better control (now an override for all architectures) and correctly determine dependencies. Minor typos and inaccuracies in the source and man page have been corrected.; tags | tool; systems | linux, unix; SHA-256 | d47db0cf9a58f7ec9877eec543a062f01309916f569639c27a8b0dd004b24541; Download | Favorite | View
