//! Implementation for the Solaris family
//!
//! `/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` (and use GRND_RANDOM).
//!
//! Solaris 11.3 and late-2018 illumos added the getrandom(2) libc function.
//! To make sure we can compile on both Solaris and its derivatives, as well as
//! function, we check for the existence of getrandom(2) in libc by calling
//! libc::dlsym.
