[OpenWrt-Devel] [PATCH 6/7] hostapd: use getrandom syscall

Hauke Mehrtens hauke at hauke-m.de
Sun Sep 8 11:20:06 EDT 2019


hostapd will not use the getrandom() syscall and as a fallback use
/dev/random, the syscall is supported since Linux 3.17 and in the musl,
glibc and uclibc version used by OpenWrt.
