/**
 * A service designed to load and periodically save "randomness"
 * for the Linux kernel RNG and to mix in data from Hardware RNG (if present)
 * into the Linux RNG.
 *
 * <p>When a Linux system starts up, the entropy pool associated with
 * {@code /dev/random} may be in a fairly predictable state.  Applications which
 * depend strongly on randomness may find {@code /dev/random} or
 * {@code /dev/urandom} returning predictable data.  In order to counteract
 * this effect, it's helpful to carry the entropy pool information across
 * shutdowns and startups.
 *
 * <p>On systems with Hardware RNG (/dev/hw_random), a block of output from HW
 * RNG is mixed into the Linux RNG on EntropyMixer's startup and whenever
 * EntropyMixer periodically runs to save a block of output from Linux RNG on
 * disk. This mixing is done in a way that does not increase the Linux RNG's
 * entropy estimate is not increased. This is to avoid having to trust/verify
 * the quality and authenticity of the &quot;randomness&quot; of the HW RNG.
 *
 * <p>This class was modeled after the script in
 * <a href="http://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/online/pages/man4/random.4.html">man
 * 4 random</a>.
