function _password_enforce_log2_boundaries

_password_enforce_log2_boundaries($count_log2)

Ensures that $count_log2 is within set bounds.

Parameters

$count_log2: Integer that determines the number of iterations used in the hashing process. A larger value is more secure, but takes more time to complete.

Return value

Integer within set bounds that is closest to $count_log2.
