From 4a2abbc6b8683dd8ac399d305b23409a7a7503d3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Biggers Date: Fri, 6 Dec 2019 20:19:37 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] crypto: doc - remove references to ARC4 arc4 is no longer considered secure, so it shouldn't be used, even as just an example. Mention serpent and chacha20 instead.
