Patch Set 2:

I think it would be best to map this to the linux getrandom(2) syscall by default.  It is in mainline linux kernel since 2014, and we should use it by default to avoid any external crypto library dependency.  If this syscall exists at compile time (we can check with autoconf if the function getrandom() is defined in linux/random.h), then we should use it.
