109 * sysctl is a failsafe API, so it guarantees a result. This
110 * should work inside a chroot, or when file descriptors are
113 * However this can fail if the Linux kernel removes support
114 * for sysctl. Starting in 2007, there have been efforts to
115 * deprecate the sysctl API/ABI, and push callers towards use
116 * of the chroot-unavailable fd-using /proc mechanism --
117 * essentially the same problems as /dev/urandom.
119 * Numerous setbacks have been encountered in their deprecation
120 * schedule, so as of June 2014 the kernel ABI still exists on
121 * most Linux architectures. The sysctl() stub in libc is missing
122 * on some systems. There are also reports that some kernels
123 * spew messages to the console.

131 * Entropy collection via /dev/urandom and sysctl have failed.
133 * No other API exists for collecting entropy. See the large
134 * comment block above.
136 * We have very few options:
137 * - Even syslog_r is unsafe to call at this low level, so
138 * there is no way to alert the user or program.
139 * - Cannot call abort() because some systems have unsafe
141 * - Could raise(SIGKILL) resulting in silent program termination.
142 * - Return EIO, to hint that arc4random's stir function
143 * should raise(SIGKILL)
144 * - Do the best under the circumstances....
146 * This code path exists to bring light to the issue that Linux
147 * does not provide a failsafe API for entropy collection.
149 * We hope this demonstrates that Linux should either retain their
150 * sysctl ABI, or consider providing a new failsafe API which
151 * works in a chroot or when file descriptors are exhausted.
