AWS Graviton based systems provide an Arm SMC call in the vendor defined hypervisor region to read random numbers from a HW TRNG and return them to the guest.
We've observed slower guest boot and especially reboot times due to lack of entropy and providing access to a TRNG is meant to address this.
