Message-ID: <bug-216656-11311@https.bugzilla.kernel.org/> (raw)

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=216656

            Bug ID: 216656
           Summary: random: poolsize
           Product: Documentation
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: man-pages
          Assignee: documentation_man-pages@kernel-bugs.osdl.org
          Reporter: christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu
        Regression: No

In https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man4/random.4.html

In "/proc interfaces" section, item "poolsize", part "Linux 2.6 and later", it
is said the file contains value 4096.

That is not correct anymore since commit 6e8ec2552c7d ("random: use
computational hash for entropy extraction")

Also mentionned in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=216061
