Linux::Perl::getrandom

SYNOPSIS

    my $numbytes = Linux::Perl::getrandom::x86_64->getrandom(
        buffer => \$buffer,
        flags => [ 'RANDOM', 'NONBLOCK' ],
    );

    # … or, platform-neutral:
    my $numbytes = Linux::Perl::getrandom->getrandom(
        buffer => \$buffer,
        flags => [ 'RANDOM', 'NONBLOCK' ],
    );

DESCRIPTION

This is an interface to Linux’s getrandom system call. This system call is documented only for kernel 3.17 and after; however, it appears to be present in some earlier kernel versions.
