Cryptochip Entropy haveged and rngd

[anon50890781]

Probably misinterpreted (infered) something that it is not (entropy prodiver to the kernel).
There is a difference between entropy source (seed) and entropy provider.

The chip is more of a secure crypto provider than really an entropy provider and the text chosen to be exhibited [2] seems a bit misleading.

Unfortunately this never been responded to

What is the purpose of the dedicated crypto chip if it does not produce a healthy amount of entropy?

To my understanding tools like haveged and rng-tools would be just other (pseudo) entropy sources and not procure entropy from the dedicated crypto chip. Deploying such pseudo source would render the dedicated crypto chip obsolete, would it not?
