* Name: getentropy
*
* Description:
* The getentropy() function writes length bytes of high-quality
* random data to the buffer starting at the location pointed to by
* buffer. The maximum permitted value for the length argument is
* 256.
*
* A successful call to getentropy() always provides the requested
* number of bytes of entropy.
*
* Input Parameters:
* buffer - Buffer for returned random bytes
* length - Number of bytes requested.
*
* Returned Value:
* On success, this function returns zero. On error, -1 is
* returned, and errno is set to indicate the error.
*
