    Description

      We've started seeing an assert failing inside setup_random at line 537:

       528 static void setup_random()
       529 {
       530 #ifndef _WIN32          // TODO: better seed
       531     int seed;
       532     int fd = open("/dev/urandom", O_RDONLY);
       533     if (fd == -1) {
       534         seed = getpid();
       535     } else {
       536         int rc = read(fd, &seed, sizeof(seed));
       537         assert(rc == sizeof(seed));
       538         close(fd);
       539     }
       540     srandom(seed);
       541     srand48(seed);
       542 #endif
      

      The core files show:

      I'm not sure what the underlying cause of this is... But POSIX always allows for a short read(2), and any program MUST check for short reads...

      Has anyone else encountered this issue? We are seeing it rather frequently which is concerning.
