/* Regarding Linux getrandom/urandom:
*
* For maximum security guarantee, we *only*
* use getrandom via syscall, or /dev/urandom;
* use of urandom is ill advised. This is why
* we use the syscall, in case the libc version
* of getrandom() might defer to /dev/urandom
*
* We *abort* on error, for both /dev/urandom
* and getrandom(), because the BSD arc4random
* never returns with error; therefore, for the
* most parity in terms of behaviour, we abort,
* because otherwise the function would have two
* return modes: always successful (BSD), or only
* sometimes (Linux). The BSD arc4random could
* theoretically abort; it is extremely unlikely
* there, and just so on Linux, hence this design.
*
* This is important, because cryptographic code
* for example must not rely on weak randomness.
* We must therefore treat broken randomness as
* though the world is broken, and burn accordingly.
*
* Similarly, any invalid input (NULL, zero bytes
* requested) are treated as fatal errors; again,
* cryptographic code must be reliable. If your
* code erroneously requested zero bytes, you might
* then end up with a non-randomised buffer, where
* you likely intended otherwise.
*
* In other words: call rset() correctly, or your
* program dies, and rset will behave correctly,
* or your program dies.
