As of 1772.0.0, our kernel config enables support for hardware random number generators and builds a couple of drivers as modules (
CONFIG_HW_RANDOM_VIRTIO
andCONFIG_HW_RANDOM_TIMERIOMEM
in commonconfig). In order to speed up entropy gathering at early boot (and hopefully sidestep #2429 and similar issues), it would be convenient to build in the most common drivers.From a quick look around, this would be my proposed list:
Two additional sidenotes:
timeriomem-rng
is not available on any of the platforms we support, thus it can be safely disabledvirtio-rng
the host needs to pass-device virtio-rng-pci
