[issue33528] os.getentropy support

[David Carlier]

David Carlier <dcarlier at afilias.info> added the comment:

Those are valid points honestly. OpenBSD's getentropy works that way indeed (getentropy has also been implemented into FreeBSD in the CURRENT branch couple of months ago).
So indeed os.urandom provides already a wrapping usage only this one gives the responsibility to the caller to handle cases when more than 256 bytes at a time.
