    you should replace this code with one that uses a hardware random
    generator of your microcontroller in production.
    (see speed-stm32/rand.c for such example)
+
+c) there are executables:
+   * test-speed
+     - check signing speed (sign 100x and compute speed from duration)
+   * test-verify
+     - generate random messages and private keys
+     - check signature validity against OpenSSL (call verify method)

+d) directory speed-stm32 contains project for deploying the code
