+.Sh NAME
+.Nm rndtest
+.Nd FIPS 140-2 random number generator test monitor
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "device rndtest"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver
+.Dq "hooks up"
+to hardware crypto devices to monitor the
+entropy data passed to the
+.Xr random 4
+subsystem.
+This data is periodically tested for FIPS 140-2 compliance and
+statistics are collected.
+If the harvested entropy fails any of the FIPS test suite, then
+it is discarded and testing is continuously applied until
+.Dq "good data"
+is received from the device.
+Failures are optionally reported on the console.
+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr crypto 4 ,
+.Xr hifn 4 ,
+.Xr random 4 ,
+.Xr safe 4 ,
+.Xr ubsec 4 ,
+.Xr crypto 9
+.Sh HISTORY
+The idea for this and the original code came from
+.An "Jason L. Wright" .
+The
+.Nm
+device driver first appeared in
+.Fx 5.0 .
+.Sh BUGS
+Crypto device drivers must be compiled specially to make use of this driver;
+this should not be necessary.
+This feature might better be integrated into the
+.Xr random 4
+subsystem where it can be applied to devices that claim to supply
+.Dq "pure entropy" .
