Guillem Jover b0ebb0d4 2019-08-06T23:16:42 build: Use __register_atfork() only if really available This is a glibc-specific symbol that has no public declaration. But is being used by the OpenBSD and this implementation as a hack to avoid having to link against the pthread library. This interface is at least included in LSB 5.0 [L], and using pthread_atfork() is otherwise problematic anyway [P]. [L] <https://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/LSB_5.0.0/LSB-Core-generic/LSB-Core-generic/baselib---register-atfork.html> [P] <http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=851> One problem is that we were using it whenever __GLIBC__ is defined, which is supposed to be defined only on an actual glibc, but uClibc defines that macro, but it does not provide the symbol on its noMMU variant. We add a new configure check that will try to link a program that uses that symbol to make sure it is present. Closes: !2 Reported-by: Fabrice Fontaine <fontaine.fabrice@gmail.com>
Guillem Jover 3d88c999 2018-05-15T00:41:26 Update arc4random() headers from OpenBSD Split Linux support into its own header separate from the generic Unix to fix a Linux-specific issue with clone(). Reset rsp to NULL on failure.
Guillem Jover 75729394 2015-12-02T03:08:17 Unify most arc4random Unix hooks into a single file The Unix hook should work for most Unix-like systems, move glibc specific code there and a FreeBSd specific comment, and remove the rest. Also change the code to always fallback to use the generic Unix code. This should cover GNU/Hurd and GNU/kFreeBSD among others.
Guillem Jover 874a0e51 2015-09-23T19:39:47 Update arc4random module from OpenBSD and LibreSSL Rework arc4random_stir() and arc4random_addrandom() code over the new internal API, and documentation in the man page. Adapt the code to the local build system. Fixes: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=85827
