+.Sh NAME
+.Nm sun8icrypto
+.Nd driver for Allwinner Crypto Engine
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "sun8icrypto* at fdt?"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver provides support for the cryptographic processors on Allwinner
+A64, H3 and H5 systems-on-a-chip.
+The Allwinner Crypto Engine is the successor to the earlier
+Allwinner Security System.
+.Pp
+The hardware includes a True Random Number Generator (TRNG) that is
+used as an entropy source for the
+.Xr rnd 4
+system, and implementations of various cryptographic algorithms
+that can be used with
+.Xr ipsec 4
+and
+.Xr crypto 4 .
+.Pp
+The following
+.Xr opencrypto 9
+algorithms are supported:

+.Sh HISTORY
+The
+.Nm
+device driver first appeared in
+.Nx 9.1 .
+.Sh CAVEATS
+The
+.Nm
+TRNG's underlying source of randomness is not documented by Allwinner,
+so is not trusted as a reliable source of entropy.
+Initial tests using NIST's SP800-90B tools showed highly biased
+runs of output, suggesting any potential physical source is not
+subject to whitening.
+.Pp
+Cryptographic operations using
+.Nm
+are generally slower than using the CPU on supported devices, but provide
+an advantage in terms of hardware offloading if the CPU is busy.
