+ bool "Generate some entropy during boot and runtime"
+ depends on GCC_PLUGINS
+ help
+ By saying Y here the kernel will instrument some kernel code to
+ extract some entropy from both original and artificially created
+ program state. This will help especially embedded systems where
+ there is little 'natural' source of entropy normally. The cost
+ is some slowdown of the boot process (about 0.5%) and fork and
+ irq processing.
+
+ Note that entropy extracted this way is not cryptographically
+ secure!
+
+ This plugin was ported from grsecurity/PaX. More information at:

+
+ This requires that the arch annotates or otherwise protects
+ its external entry points from being discarded. Linker scripts
+ must also merge .text.*, .data.*, and .bss.* correctly into
+ output sections. Care must be taken not to pull in unrelated
+ sections (e.g., '.text.init'). Typically '.' in section names
+ is used to distinguish them from label names / C identifiers.
