//! Implementation for the Solaris family
//!
//! Read from `/dev/random`, with chunks of limited size (256 bytes).
//! `/dev/random` uses the Hash_DRBG with SHA512 algorithm from NIST SP 800-90A.
//! `/dev/urandom` uses the FIPS 186-2 algorithm, which is considered less
//! secure. We choose to read from `/dev/random`.
//!
//! Since Solaris 11.3 and mid-2015 illumos, the `getrandom` syscall is available.
//! To make sure we can compile on both Solaris and its derivatives, as well as
//! function, we check for the existance of getrandom(2) in libc by calling
//! libc::dlsym.
