bpo-22257: Small changes for PEP 432. (#1728)

2017-05-23T04:36:03+00:00

PEP 432 specifies a number of large changes to interpreter startup code, including exposing a cleaner C-API. The major changes depend on a number of smaller changes. This patch includes all those smaller changes.

Issue #29157: enhance py_getrandom() documentation

2017-01-06T10:39:15+00:00

py_getentropy() now supports ENOSYS, EPERM & EINTR

2017-01-06T10:33:18+00:00

Issue #29157.

Issue #29157: getrandom() is now preferred over getentropy()

2017-01-06T10:26:01+00:00

The glibc now implements getentropy() on Linux using the getrandom() syscall.
But getentropy() doesn't support non-blocking mode.

Since getrandom() is tried first, it's not more needed to explicitly exclude
getentropy() on Solaris. Replace:

    if defined(HAVE_GETENTROPY) && !defined(sun)

with

    if defined(HAVE_GETENTROPY)

Issue #29157: Simplify dev_urandom()

2017-01-06T10:17:52+00:00

pyurandom() is now responsible to call getentropy() or getrandom().

Enhance also dev_urandom() and pyurandom() documentation.

Issue #29157: dev_urandom() now calls py_getentropy()

2017-01-06T10:16:20+00:00

Prepare the fallback to support getentropy() failure and falls back on reading
from /dev/urandom.
