[PATCH 11/12] config.mak.uname; add arc4random to the cygwin build

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



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.
