The U2F zero apparently has a real TRNG in it with maximum quality, not one with quality of "1", which was likely a misinterpretation of the field as a boolean. So remove the assignment entirely, so that we get the default quality setting. In the u2f-zero firmware, the 0x21 RNG command used by this driver is handled as such [1]: case U2F_CUSTOM_GET_RNG: if (atecc_send_recv(ATECC_CMD_RNG,ATECC_RNG_P1,ATECC_RNG_P2, NULL, 0, appdata.tmp, sizeof(appdata.tmp), &res) == 0 ) { memmove(msg->pkt.init.payload, res.buf, 32); U2FHID_SET_LEN(msg, 32); usb_write((uint8_t*)msg, 64); } else { U2FHID_SET_LEN(msg, 0); usb_write((uint8_t*)msg, 64); } This same call to `atecc_send_recv(ATECC_CMD_RNG,ATECC_RNG_P1, ATECC_RNG_P2,...)` is then also used in the token's cryptographically critical "u2f_new_keypair" function, as its rather straightforward source of random bytes [2]: int8_t u2f_new_keypair(uint8_t * handle, uint8_t * appid, uint8_t * pubkey) { struct atecc_response res; uint8_t private_key[36]; int i; watchdog(); if (atecc_send_recv(ATECC_CMD_RNG,ATECC_RNG_P1,ATECC_RNG_P2, NULL, 0, appdata.tmp, sizeof(appdata.tmp), &res) != 0 ) { return -1; } So it seems rather plain that the ATECC RNG is considered to provide good random numbers.
