The getentropy function, first found in OpenBSD, is present in glibc since version 2.25 and Bionic since Android 6.0 and NDK r11. It uses the Linux 3.17 getrandom system call. Unlike glibc's getrandom() wrapper, the glibc implementation of getentropy() function is not a POSIX thread cancellation point, so we prefer to use that even though we have to break the reading into 256-byte blocks. The big advantage is that these functions work even in the absence of a /dev/urandom device node, in addition to a few cycles shaved off by not having to open a file descriptor and close it at exit. What's more, the glibc implementation blocks until entropy is available on early boot, so we don't have to worry about a failure mode. The Bionic implementation will fall back by itself to /dev/urandom and, failing that, gathering entropy from elsewhere in the system in a way it cannot fail either. uClibc has a wrapper to getrandom(2) but no getentropy(3). MUSL has neither. Change-Id: Ia53158e207a94bf49489fffd14c8cee1b968a619 Reviewed-by: Lars Knoll <lars.knoll@qt.io> |

This directory contains autotests and benchmarks based on Qt Test. In order to run the autotests reliably, you need to configure a desktop to match the test environment that these tests are written for. Linux X11: * The user must be logged in to an active desktop; you can't run the autotests without a valid DISPLAY that allows X11 connections. * The tests are run against a KDE3 or KDE4 desktop. * Window manager uses "click to focus", and not "focus follows mouse". Many tests move the mouse cursor around and expect this to not affect focus and activation. * Disable "click to activate", i.e., when a window is opened, the window manager should automatically activate it (give it input focus) and not wait for the user to click the window.
