Subject: [musl] [PATCH v2] getentropy: fail if buffer not completely filled
Date: Sun, 10 Apr 2022 00:58:49 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220409225851.715796-1-Jason@zx2c4.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <CAHmME9o4C_G2CvmE-K8HVbZCbvdDUKp0XHJ0C28mmTs_zywGTw@mail.gmail.com>
The man page for getentropy says that it either completely succeeds or
completely fails, and indeed this is what glibc does. However, musl has
a condition where it breaks out of the loop early, yet still returns a
success. This patch fixes that by returning a success only if the buffer
is completely filled.

Changes v2->v3:
- This gets rid of the ret==0 check like glibc uses.
