In other words, the intent is that none of the early randomness, in particular device randomness, should be discarded. rand_initialize() starts by "initializing" the input_pool and the blocking_pool by mixing some extra entropy into them (real time, multiple time stamp counters and the utsname); it doesn't clear the pools to avoid clobbering existing entropy. The primary_crng, however, is fully reinitialized, discarding its existing state[...]
