This makes std::random_device usable on VxWorks when running on older
x86 hardware. Since the r10-728 fix for PR libstdc++/85494 the library
will use the new code unconditionally on x86, but the cpuid checks for
RDSEED and RDRAND can fail at runtime, depending on the hardware where
the code is executing. If the OS does not provide /dev/urandom then this
means the std::random_device constructor always fails. In previous
releases if /dev/urandom is unavailable then std::mt19937 was used
unconditionally.
This patch adds a fallback for the case where the runtime cpuid checks
for x86 hardware instructions fail, and no /dev/urandom is available.
When this happens a std::linear_congruential_engine object will be used,
with a seed based on hashing the engine's address and the current time.
Distinct std::random_device objects will use different seeds, unless an
object is created and destroyed and a new object created at the same
memory location within the clock tick. This is not great, but is better
than always throwing from the constructor, and better than always using
std::mt19937 with the same seed (as GCC 9 and earlier do).
libstdc++-v3/ChangeLog:
* src/c++11/random.cc (USE_LCG): Define when a pseudo-random
fallback is needed.
[USE_LCG] (bad_seed, construct_lcg_at, destroy_lcg_at, __lcg):
New helper functions and callback.
(random_device::_M_init): Add 'prng' and 'all' enumerators.
Replace switch with fallthrough with a series of 'if' statements.
[USE_LCG]: Construct an lcg_type engine and use __lcg when cpuid
checks fail.
(random_device::_M_init_pretr1) [USE_MT19937]: Accept "prng"
token.
(random_device::_M_getval): Check for callback unconditionally
and always pass _M_file pointer.
* testsuite/26_numerics/random/random_device/85494.cc: Remove
effective-target check. Use new random_device_available helper.
* testsuite/26_numerics/random/random_device/94087.cc: Likewise.
* testsuite/26_numerics/random/random_device/cons/default-cow.cc:
Remove effective-target check.
* testsuite/26_numerics/random/random_device/cons/default.cc:
Likewise.
* testsuite/26_numerics/random/random_device/cons/token.cc: Use
new random_device_available helper. Test "prng" token.
* testsuite/util/testsuite_random.h (random_device_available):
New helper function.
