The only difference is that functions are not individually listed by name, but that seems completely pointless, since all functions that are documented are always exported, so the generic text tells the user all she or he needs to know.

|
|
|
<para><function>sd_id128_randomize()</function> generates a new
|
|
randomized 128-bit ID and returns it in
|
|
<parameter>ret</parameter>. Every invocation returns a new
|
|
randomly generated ID. This uses the
|
|
<filename>/dev/urandom</filename> kernel random number
|
|
generator.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Note that <function>sd_id128_randomize()</function> always
|
|
returns a UUID v4-compatible ID.</para>
