I'm just wondering what people using on standard embedded/headless/diskless 
targets (which do not have hw random number generators) as a source of 
entropy - since networking was removed as an entropy source circa 2.6.26

On my target:

root:/> cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail
0

is about all I get... (since I'm not running any userspace utils yet).


I have seen rngd, clrngd, audio_entropyd, & video_entroyd - but I was just 
wondering what others were actually using. (I was cautioned that everything 
was pretty CPU intensive, since they all have a FIPS testing to ensure 
randomness)...

Thanks in advance.
