In an effort to provide a flexible implementation for a random number generator that also delivers entropy during early boot time, allows replacement of the deterministic random number generation mechanism, implement the various components in separate code for easier maintenance, and provide compliance to SP800-90[A|B|C], introduce the Linux Random Number Generator (LRNG) framework.
