description:
Estimated number of bits of true entropy per 1024 bits read from the rng.
Defaults to zero which causes the kernel's default quality to be used
instead. Note that the default quality is usually zero which disables
using this rng to automatically fill the kernel's entropy pool.

Annotation
- Atlas domain: Support Tooling And Documentation / Documentation.
- Implementation status: atlas-only.
Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
