The function is a wrapper on top of getrandom() (if available via glibc) or corresponding syscall. If neither is available than failure is always returned. It's intended to generate small random data good enough for session identifiers and keys. To generate long-term cryptographic keys it's better to use special crypto libraries (like GnuTLS for example) instead. As an example it's used to replace old insecure random number generator in osmo-auc-gen utility. Change-Id: I0241b814ea4c4ce1458f7ad76e31d390383c2048 Related: OS#1694 |

libosmocore - set of Osmocom core libraries
This repository contains a set of C-language libraries that form the core infrastructure of many Osmocom Open Source Mobile Communications projects.
Historically, a lot of this code was developed as part of the OpenBSC project, but which are of a more generic nature and thus useful to (at least) other programs that we develop in the sphere of Free Software / Open Source mobile communications.
There is no clear scope of it. We simply move all shared code between the various Osmocom projects in this library to avoid code duplication.
The libosmcoore.git repository build multiple libraries:
- libosmocore contains some general-purpose functions like select-loop abstraction, message buffers, timers, linked lists
- libosmovty contains routines related to the interactive command-line interface called VTY
- libosmogsm contains definitions and helper code related to GSM protocols
- libosmoctrl contains a shared implementation of the Osmocom control interface
- libosmogb contains an implementation of the Gb interface with its NS/BSSGP protocols
- libosmocodec contains an implementation of GSM voice codecs
- libosmocoding contains an implementation of GSM channel coding
- libosmosim contains infrastructure to interface SIM/UICC/USIM cards
- libosmotrau contains encoding/decoding functions for A-bis TRAU frames
