Hi
I am unable to open /dev/urandom when compiling with -lc_r. The open() call
returns -1, with errno set to 25 (ENOTTY). Here is an example program :
/* Doesn't Work when compiled with gcc rndtest.c -o rndtest -D_THREAD_SAFE -lc_r */
/* Works when compiled without the threaded c lib. */
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <pthread.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <errno.h>
main()
{
int fd = -1;
if((fd=open("/dev/urandom",O_RDONLY,0))==-1) {
printf("Error : %d\n",errno);
exit(1);
}
exit(0);
}
Any ideas ??
Jacques
