// This module is used to accumulate entropy from hardware interrupts
// for consumption by a higher-level PRNG.
//
// The raw entropy samples are collected from CPU counters during
// hardware interrupts. We do not perform synchronization before
// reading the counter (unlike ml_get_timebase and similar functions).
//
// This entropy accumulator performs continuous health tests in
// accordance with NIST SP 800-90B. The parameters have been chosen
// with the expectation that test failures should never occur except
// in case of catastrophic hardware failure.
