Thanks for your advices. My use case only requires support for RNDGETENTCNT... Considering that RNDADDENTROPY and RNDGETPOOL are non trivial, would a patch with only RNDGETENTCNT, RNDADDTOENTCNT, RNDZAPENTCNT and RNDCLEARPOOL be accepted? Note: I swapped the types of RNDADDTOENTCNT and RNDGETPOOL...
