Subject: [PATCH 1/2] stdlib: Fix __getrandom_nocancel type and arc4random usage (BZ #29638)
Date: Thu, 29 Sep 2022 16:27:55 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220929192756.3310704-1-adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org> (raw)

Using an unsigned type prevents the fallback to be used if kernel
does not support getrandom syscall.

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu.
