Bug #71200 [Opn->Fbk]: incorrect getrandom checks

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=71200&edit=1 ID: 71200 Updated by: ab@php.net Reported by: crrodriguez at opensuse dot org Summary: incorrect getrandom checks -Status: Open +Status: Feedback Type: Bug Package: *Compile Issues Operating System: linux PHP Version: master-Git-2015-12-22 (Git) Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Thanks for the report. HAVE_DECL_GETRANDOM is generated by autotools, please see ext/standard/config.m4 . Do you mean the getrandom declaration could be missing, but the syscall still available? If so, probably better to check both. Thanks. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-12-23 00:47:40] crrodriguez at opensuse dot org Description: ------------ getrandom() system call is not used on linux due to incorrect ifdef's. HAVE_DECL_GETRANDOM is always undefined as there is no declaration of getrandom on the C library or kernel headers and the code that follows does not use it, only the raw syscall interface. Test script: --------------- strace -egetrandom php -r 'random_bytes(1);' Expected result: ---------------- getrandom("\221", 1, 0) = 1 Actual result: -------------- (nothing, getrandom unused) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=71200&edit=1
