+ * \brief Type for a provider of entropy seeds.
+ *
+ * A "seeder" is a function that is able to obtain random values from
+ * some source and inject them as entropy seed in a PRNG. A seeder
+ * shall guarantee that the total entropy of the injected seed is large
+ * enough to seed a PRNG for purposes of cryptographic key generation
+ * (i.e. at least 128 bits).
+ *
+ * A seeder may report a failure to obtain adequate entropy. Seeders
+ * shall endeavour to fix themselves transient errors by trying again;
+ * thus, callers may consider reported errors as permanent.
+ *
+ * \param ctx   PRNG context to seed.
+ * \return  1 on success, 0 on error.
