GLXSB(4)              OpenBSD Programmer's Manual (i386)              GLXSB(4)

NAME
     glxsb - Geode LX Security Block device

SYNOPSIS
     glxsb* at pci?

DESCRIPTION
     The glxsb driver supports the security block of the Geode LX series pro-
     cessors.

     The Geode LX is a member of the AMD Geode family of integrated x86 system
     chips.

     Driven by periodic checks for available data from the generator, glxsb
     supplies entropy to the random(4) driver for common usage.

SEE ALSO
     random(4)

HISTORY
     Support for the glxsb was added in OpenBSD 4.1.

AUTHORS
     The glxsb driver was written by Tom Cosgrove.

BUGS
     The glxsb driver does not yet use the AES acceleration provided by the
     security block; it only uses the random number generator.
