Message268206
Write some documentation for the ``secrets`` module summarizing the issues relating to /dev/[u]random, getrandom, etc. There's a lot of confusion about these issues, and the web contains a lot of misinformation, so being able to point to the secrets docs for a summary will be useful for further discussions, and to help programmers pick the right solution.
I know the Python docs cannot be the definitive source of information about OS features, but they can provide enough of a summary to allow users to make informed decisions. |
