From afe9bba749b9fd897b7e7d416d904852d867d2c2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Richard Levitte Date: Tue, 27 Jun 2017 11:25:03 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] crypto/mem.c: on Windows, use rand() instead of random() Windows doesn't provide random(). In this particular case, our requirements on the quality of randomness isn't high, so we don't need to care how good randomness rand() does or doesn't provide.
