> I wonder what we should do on Linux if /dev/urandom is unavailable and getrandom() would block. I don't think that happens. getrandom() actually supports two flags. The flag GRND_RANDOM tells it "behave like /dev/random". If you don't pass in GRND_RANDOM, it behaves like "/dev/urandom". So it's hard to imagine that you could have getrandom() and not have /dev/urandom. |
