Subject: [PATCH v3 12/13] config.mak.uname: add arc4random to the cygwin build
Date: Thu, 17 Apr 2025 00:18:33 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250416231835.2492562-13-ramsay@ramsayjones.plus.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250416231835.2492562-1-ramsay@ramsayjones.plus.com>
The arc4random_buf() function has been available in cygwin since
about 2016 (somewhere in the v2.x branch). Set the CSPRNG_METHOD
build variable to 'arc4random', in the cygwin section, to enable
the use of this cryptographically-secure pseudorandom number
function. Note that the autoconf and new meson builds also enable
this function.
