Not for now, but in the future ARM is getting RDSEED-like instructions (don't believe there are currently any chips available with this 8.5-A ISA):
https://community.arm.com/developer/ip-products/processors/b/processors-ip-blog/posts/arm-a-profile-architecture-2018-developments-armv85a

Armv8.5-A also contains other small features, including:
Random Number instructions – providing Deterministic and True Random Numbers conforming to various National and International Standards.

This would go in caml_cpu_checked_random and caml_cpu_unchecked_random in src/native/entropy_cpu_stubs.c
