<chris2> so, current flow for getentropy is
<chris2> 1) use SYS_getrandom if it exists (true on glibc and musl)
<chris2> 2) use /dev/urandom
<chris2> 3) use sysctl (glibc only)
<chris2> 4) use terrible fallback
<chris2> and with a one-line patch it can instead kill itself after 3
<chris2> so that should only affect processes running without /dev/urandom on old kernels
<chris2> probably no harm else
