+
+---------
+pw_random
+---------
+Pigweed's ``pw_random`` module provides a generic interface for random number
+generators, as well as some practical embedded-friendly implementations. While
+this module does not provide drivers for hardware random number generators, it
+acts as a user-friendly layer that can be used to abstract away such hardware.
+
+Embedded systems have the propensity to be more deterministic than your typical
+PC. Sometimes this is a good thing. Other times, it's valuable to have some
+random numbers that aren't predictable. In security contexts or areas where
+things must be marked with a unique ID, this is especially important. Depending
+on the project, true hardware random number generation peripherals may or may
+not be available. Even if RNG hardware is present, it might not always be active
+or accessible. ``pw_random`` provides libraries that make these situations
+easier to manage.
+
+Using RandomGenerator
+=====================
+There's two sides to a RandomGenerator; the input, and the output. The outputs
+are relatively straightforward; ``GetInt()`` randomizes the passed integer
+reference, and ``Get()`` dumps random values into a the passed span. The inputs
+are in the form of the ``InjectEntropy*()`` functions. These functions are used
+to "seed" the random generator. In some implementations, this can simply be
+resetting the seed of a PRNG, while in others it might directly populate a
+limited buffer of random data. In all cases, entropy injection is used to
+improve the randomness of calls to ``Get*()``.
+
+It might not be easy to find sources of entropy in a system, but in general a
+few bits of noise from ADCs or other highly variable inputs can be accumulated
+in a RandomGenerator over time to improve randomness. Such an approach might
+not be sufficient for security, but it could help for less strict uses.
+
+Algorithms
+==========
+xorshift*
+---------
+The ``xorshift*`` algorithm is a pseudo-random number generation algorithm. It's
+very simple in principle; the state is represented as an integer that, with each
+generation, performs exclusive OR operations on different left/right bit shifts
+of itself. The "*" refers to a final multiplication that is applied to the
+output value.
+
+Pigweed's implementation augments this with an ability to inject entropy to
+reseed the generator throughout its lifetime. When entropy is injected, the
+results of the generator are no longer completely deterministic based on the
+original seed.
+
+Note that this generator is NOT cryptographically secure.
+
+For more information, see:
+
+ * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xorshift
+ * https://www.jstatsoft.org/article/view/v008i14
+ * http://vigna.di.unimi.it/ftp/papers/xorshift.pdf
+
+Future Work
+===========
+A simple "entropy pool" implementation could buffer incoming entropy later use
+instead of requiring an application to directly poll the hardware RNG peripheral
+when the random data is needed. This would let a device collect entropy when
+idling, improving the latency of potentially performance-sensitive areas where
+random numbers are needed.
