* Success. The output buffer contains \p output_size bytes of
* cryptographic-quality random data, and \c *output_length is
* set to \p output_size.
* \retval #PSA_ERROR_INSUFFICIENT_ENTROPY
* The random generator requires extra entropy and there is no
* way to obtain entropy under current environment conditions.
* This error should not happen under normal circumstances since
* this function is responsible for obtaining as much entropy as
* it needs. However implementations of this function may return
* #PSA_ERROR_INSUFFICIENT_ENTROPY if there is no way to obtain
* entropy without blocking indefinitely.
* \retval #PSA_ERROR_HARDWARE_FAILURE
* A failure of the random generator hardware that isn't covered
* by #PSA_ERROR_INSUFFICIENT_ENTROPY.
