Martin Panter added the comment: Here is a possible patch for 3.5+ based on my modest understanding of the concerns about insecure results and blocking. I hope that my wording is clear, couldn’t be confused with Linux’s /dev/random blocking and running out of fresh entropy, etc.
I also tried to make it clearer what APIs are used in what circumstances. It is not just Linux: we also call getrandom() on Solaris, because its getentropy() is not good enough. ---------- keywords: +patch Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file43410/urandom-doc.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27292> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
