               This backend type expects a non-blocking character device as
               input. The file name is specified as contents of the
-              <code>backend</code> element. When no file name is specified
-              the hypervisor default is used. For qemu, the default is

+              any path is accepted. Before that /dev/random and /dev/hwrng were
+              the only accepted paths. When no file name is specified the hypervisor
