  // NOTE: There are some other techniques that may be worth trying:
  //
  // * Use an environment variable: ABSL_RANDOM_USE_HWAES
  //
  // * Rely on compiler-generated target-based dispatch.
  // Using x86/gcc it might look something like this:
  //
  // int __attribute__((target("aes"))) HasAes() { return 1; }
  // int __attribute__((target("default"))) HasAes() { return 0; }
  //
  // This does not work on all architecture/compiler combinations.
  //
  // * On Linux consider reading /proc/cpuinfo and/or /proc/self/auxv.
  // These files have lines which are easy to parse; for ARM/AARCH64 it is quite
  // easy to find the Features: line and extract aes / neon. Likewise for
  // PPC.
  //
  // * Fork a process and test for SIGILL:
  //
  // * Many architectures have instructions to read the ISA. Unfortunately
  //   most of those require that the code is running in ring 0 /
  //   protected-mode.
  //
  //   There are several examples. e.g. Valgrind detects PPC ISA 2.07:
  //   https://github.com/lu-zero/valgrind/blob/master/none/tests/ppc64/test_isa_2_07_part1.c
  //
  //   MRS <Xt>, ID_AA64ISAR0_EL1 ; Read ID_AA64ISAR0_EL1 into Xt
  //
  //   uint64_t val;
  //   __asm __volatile("mrs %0, id_aa64isar0_el1" :"=&r" (val));
  //
  // * Use a CPUID-style heuristic database.
  //
  // * On Apple (__APPLE__), AES is available on Arm v8.
