34 //!
35 //! Getrandom doesn't have a blanket implementation for all Unix-like operating
36 //! systems that reads from `/dev/urandom`. This ensures all supported operating
37 //! systems are using the recommended interface and respect maximum buffer
38 //! sizes.
39 //!
40 //! ## Unsupported targets
41 //!
42 //! By default, compiling `getrandom` for an unsupported target will result in
43 //! a compilation error. If you want to build an application which uses `getrandom`
44 //! for such target, you can either:
45 //! - Use [`[replace]`][replace] or [`[patch]`][patch] section in your `Cargo.toml`
46 //! to switch to a custom implementation with a support of your target.
47 //! - Enable the `dummy` feature to have getrandom use an implementation that always
48 //! fails at run-time on unsupported targets.
49 //!
50 //! [replace]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/manifest.html#the-replace-section
51 //! [patch]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/manifest.html#the-patch-section
52 //!
53 //! ## Support for WebAssembly and asm.js
54 //!
55 //! Getrandom supports all of Rust's current `wasm32` targets, and it works with
56 //! both Node.js and web browsers. The three Emscripten targets
57 //! `asmjs-unknown-emscripten`, `wasm32-unknown-emscripten`, and
58 //! `wasm32-experimental-emscripten` use Emscripten's `/dev/random` emulation.
59 //! The WASI target `wasm32-wasi` uses the [`__wasi_random_get`][17] function
60 //! defined by the WASI standard.
61 //!
62 //! Getrandom also supports `wasm32-unknown-unknown` by directly calling
63 //! JavaScript methods. Rust currently has two ways to do this: [bindgen] and
64 //! [stdweb]. Getrandom supports using either one by enabling the
65 //! `wasm-bindgen` or `stdweb` crate features. Note that if both features are
66 //! enabled, `wasm-bindgen` will be used. If neither feature is enabled, calls
67 //! to `getrandom` will always fail at runtime.
68 //!
69 //! [bindgen]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-bindgen
70 //! [stdweb]: https://github.com/koute/stdweb
71 //!
72 //! ## Early boot
73 //!
74 //! It is possible that early in the boot process the OS hasn't had enough time
75 //! yet to collect entropy to securely seed its RNG, especially on virtual
76 //! machines.
77 //!
78 //! Some operating systems always block the thread until the RNG is securely
79 //! seeded. This can take anywhere from a few seconds to more than a minute.
80 //! Others make a best effort to use a seed from before the shutdown and don't
81 //! document much.
82 //!
83 //! A few, Linux, NetBSD and Solaris, offer a choice between blocking and
84 //! getting an error; in these cases we always choose to block.
85 //!
86 //! On Linux (when the `getrandom` system call is not available) and on NetBSD
87 //! reading from `/dev/urandom` never blocks, even when the OS hasn't collected
88 //! enough entropy yet. To avoid returning low-entropy bytes, we first read from
89 //! `/dev/random` and only switch to `/dev/urandom` once this has succeeded.
90 //!
91 //! # Error handling
92 //!
93 //! We always choose failure over returning insecure "random" bytes. In general,
94 //! on supported platforms, failure is highly unlikely, though not impossible.
95 //! If an error does occur, then it is likely that it will occur on every call to
96 //! `getrandom`, hence after the first successful call one can be reasonably
97 //! confident that no errors will occur.
98 //!
99 //! On unsupported platforms, `getrandom` always fails. See the [`Error`] type
100 //! for more information on what data is returned on failure.
