config TEST_RANDOM_GENERATOR
	bool "Non-random number generator"
	depends on !ENTROPY_HAS_DRIVER
	help
	  This option signifies that the kernel's random number APIs are
	  permitted to return values that are not truly random.
	  This capability is provided for testing purposes, when a truly random
	  number generator is not available. The non-random number generator
	  should not be used in a production environment.

	prompt "Random generator"
	default ENTROPY_DEVICE_RANDOM_GENERATOR
	depends on ENTROPY_HAS_DRIVER || TEST_RANDOM_GENERATOR
	help
	  Platform dependent non-cryptographically secure random number support.

	  If the entropy support of the platform has sufficient performance
	  to support random request then select that. Otherwise, select the
	  XOSHIRO algorithm

config TIMER_RANDOM_GENERATOR
	bool "System timer clock based number generator"
	depends on TEST_RANDOM_GENERATOR
	help
	  This options enables number generator based on system timer
	  clock. This number generator is not random and used for
	  testing only.

config ENTROPY_DEVICE_RANDOM_GENERATOR
	bool "Use entropy driver to generate random numbers"
	depends on ENTROPY_HAS_DRIVER
	help
	  Enables a random number generator that uses the enabled hardware
	  entropy gathering driver to generate random numbers. Should only be
	  selected if hardware entropy driver is designed to be a random
	  number generator source.

config XOROSHIRO_RANDOM_GENERATOR
	bool "Use Xoroshiro128+ as PRNG (DEPRECATED)"
	help
	  This is deprecated, please use XOSHIRO_RANDOM_GENERATOR instead.

config XOSHIRO_RANDOM_GENERATOR
	bool "Use Xoshiro128++ as PRNG"
	depends on ENTROPY_HAS_DRIVER
	help
	  Enables the Xoshiro128++ pseudo-random number generator, that uses
	  the entropy driver as a seed source. This is a fast general-purpose
	  non-cryptographically secure random number generator.

	  Platform dependent cryptographically secure random number support.

	  If the hardware entropy support of the platform has sufficient
	  performance to support CSRNG then select that. Otherwise, select
	  CTR-DRBG CSPRNG as that is a FIPS140-2 recommmended CSPRNG.

config HARDWARE_DEVICE_CS_GENERATOR
	bool "Use hardware random driver for CS random numbers"
	depends on ENTROPY_HAS_DRIVER
	help
	  Enables a cryptographically secure random number generator that
	  uses the enabled hardware random number driver to generate
	  random numbers.

	select TINYCRYPT_AES if TINYCRYPT
	help
	  Enables the CTR-DRBG pseudo-random number generator. This CSPRNG
	  shall use the entropy API for an initialization seed. The CTR-DRBG
	  is a a FIPS140-2 recommended cryptographically secure random number
	  generator.

	help
	  Personalization data can be provided in addition to the entropy
	  source to make the initialization of the CTR-DRBG as unique as
	  possible.
