- Subject: [PATCH v4] seedrng: fix getrandom() detection for non-glibc libc
- MIME-Version: 1.0
- Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
- Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
- glibc <= 2.24 does not provide getrandom(). A check for it has been
- added in 200a9669fbf6f06894e4243cccc9fc11a1a6073a and fixed in
- cb57abb46f06f4ede8d9ccbdaac67377fdf416cf.
- However, building with a libc other than glibc can lead to the same
- problem as not every other libc has getrandom() either:
- - uClibc provides it from v1.0.2 onwards, but requires to define
- _GNU_SOURCE (all versions - we already define it by default), and
- stddef to be included first (when using uClibc < 1.0.35 - we already
- include it through libbb.h).
- - musl libc has getrandom(), but only from version 1.1.20 onwards. As
- musl does not provide __MUSL__ or version information, it's not
- possible to check for it like we did for glibc.
- All of this makes it difficult (or impossible in case of musl) to
- check what we need to do to have getrandom() based on each libc
- versions.
- On top of that, getrandom() is also not available on older kernels. As
- an example, when using a 3.10 kernel with uClibc 1.0.26, getrandom()
- is declared so compiling works, but it fails at link time because
- getrandom() is not defined.
- To make it easier, take a similar approach to what was done for the
- crypt library: try to build a sample program to see if we have
- getrandom(). To keep it compatible with different versions of
- make (for reference see [1]), a variable for '#' is also introduced.
- Based on the new Makefile variable, we now either use the
- libc-provided getrandom() when it's available, or use our own
- implementation when it's not (like it was the case already for glibc <
- 2.25).
- This should fix compiling with many libc/kernel combinations.

- Changes v3 -> v4:
- - use a variable for '#' for compatibility with GNU make 4.2.1 and earlier.
- Changes v2 -> v3:
- - fix _GNU_SOURCE define location
- Changes v1 -> v2:
- - move _GNU_SOURCE to bb_libtest.c
- - remove GRND_NONBLOCK
- Note that I was not able to test every single combination, but I could
- confirm it builds successfully for:
- uClibc 10.0.24, linux headers 3.10 (libc getrandom NOT used)
- uClibc 1.0.36, linux headers 4.9 (libc getrandom used)
- musl 1.1.16, linux headers 4.12 (libc getrandom NOT used)
- musl 1.2.1, linux headers (libc getrandom used)
- glibc 2.25, linux headers 4.10 (libc getrandom used)
