RDSEED / RDRAND

Simple interface to rdseed / rdrand instructions.

API

1. get64, 32, 16 - nonblocking variants returning random number as an Option.
2. fill_bytes - fills byte slice with random values. blocking function.
3. blocking - wrapper returning random number when ready and panicking if operation is not supported by hardware.
4. is_available - query if hardware supports random operations.
5. rand module - strong pseudo random RDRAND operations. These operations will less likely to block. Useful for generating lot of random numbers quickly.
6. Crate defaults to true random RDSEED operations.

Portability

x64 CPU with RDSEED / RDRAND.
