glibc uses /dev/urandom for getrandom(), and from version 2.34 malloc
initialization uses it. We have to detect when we are running the random
translator itself, in which case we can't read ourself.
I used these shell commands:
../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright
(cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]")
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:
copyright statement not found" for each of 6694 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from benchtests/bench-pthread-locks.c
and iconvdata/tst-iconv-big5-hkscs-to-2ucs4.c, to work around this
diagnostic from Savannah:
remote: *** pre-commit check failed ...
remote: *** error: lines with trailing whitespace found
remote: error: hook declined to update refs/heads/master
* sysdeps/mach/hurd/getrandom.c (__getrandom): Open the random source
with O_NONBLOCK when the GRND_NONBLOCK flag is provided.
