Description

Random-number generation can draw entropy from CPU timing jitter through a security-focused library.

It is mainly for systems and software that need an additional entropy source for cryptographic or randomness-sensitive operations. Users normally do not open it directly; the value appears when other components link against or configure it correctly.
