From: Ladislav Michl <ladis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> rand and srand functions conform also to C89 in addition to POSIX.1-2001, which makes them a bit more portable (work also on MinGW host). Linux man page also says: "The versions of rand() and srand() in the Linux C Library use the same random number generator as random() and srandom()". * Use C89 conformant functions rand() and srand() Signed-off-by: Ladislav Michl <ladis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Roman Zippel <zippel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- scripts/kconfig/conf.c | 4 ++-- 1 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/scripts/kconfig/conf.c b/scripts/kconfig/conf.c index a3d2d0b..01c2f35 100644 --- a/scripts/kconfig/conf.c +++ b/scripts/kconfig/conf.c @@ -375,7 +375,7 @@ static int conf_choice(struct menu *menu) break; case set_random: if (is_new) - def = (random() % cnt) + 1; + def = (rand() % cnt) + 1; case set_default: case set_yes: case set_mod: @@ -526,7 +526,7 @@ int main(int ac, char **av) break; case 'r': input_mode = set_random; - srandom(time(NULL)); + srand(time(NULL)); break; case 'h': printf("See README for usage info\n"); -- 1.5.4.rc3.14.g44397 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kbuild" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
