-config RANDOM_TRUST_CPU

- help
- Initialize the RNG using random numbers supplied by the CPU's
- RNG instructions (e.g. RDRAND), if supported and available. These
- random numbers are never used directly, but are rather hashed into
- the main input pool, and this happens regardless of whether or not

- setting. Enabling this implies trusting that the CPU can supply high
