2020-07-24getentropy: fix UB if len==0Bartosz Brachaczek-1/+1
if len==0, an uninitalized variable would be returned
2018-09-12fix issues from public functions defined without declaration visibleRich Felker-0/+2
policy is that all public functions which have a public declaration should be defined in a context where that public declaration is visible, to avoid preventable type mismatches. an audit performed using GCC's -Wmissing-declarations turned up the violations corrected here. in some cases the public header had not been included; in others, a feature test macro needed to make the declaration visible had been omitted. in the case of gethostent and getnetent, the omission seems to have been intentional, as a hack to admit a single stub definition for both functions. this kind of hack is no longer acceptable; it's UB and would not fly with LTO or advanced toolchains. the hack is undone to make exposure of the declarations possible.
2018-02-23add getentropy functionRich Felker-0/+31
based loosely on patch by Hauke Mehrtens; converted to wrap the public API of the underlying getrandom function rather than direct syscalls, so that if/when a fallback implementation of getrandom is added it will automatically get picked up by getentropy too.
