-** PR_GetRandomNoise() -- Get random noise from the host platform
-**
-** Description:
-** PR_GetRandomNoise() provides, depending on platform, a random value.
-** The length of the random value is dependent on platform and the
-** platform's ability to provide a random value at that moment.
-**
-** The intent of PR_GetRandomNoise() is to provide a "seed" value for a
-** another random number generator that may be suitable for
-** cryptographic operations. This implies that the random value
-** provided may not be, by itself, cryptographically secure. The value
-** generated by PR_GetRandomNoise() is at best, extremely difficult to
-** predict and is as non-deterministic as the underlying platfrom can
-** provide.
-**
-** Inputs:
-** buf -- pointer to a caller supplied buffer to contain the
-** generated random number. buf must be at least as large as
-** is specified in the 'size' argument.
-**
-** size -- the requested size of the generated random number
-**
-** Outputs:
-** a random number provided in 'buf'.
-**
-** Returns:
-** PRSize value equal to the size of the random number actually
-** generated, or zero. The generated size may be less than the size
-** requested. A return value of zero means that PR_GetRandomNoise() is
-** not implemented on this platform, or there is no available noise
-** available to be returned at the time of the call.
-**
-** Restrictions:
-** Calls to PR_GetRandomNoise() may use a lot of CPU on some platforms.
-** Some platforms may block for up to a few seconds while they
-** accumulate some noise. Busy machines generate lots of noise, but
-** care is advised when using PR_GetRandomNoise() frequently in your
-** application.
-**
-** History:
-** Parts of the model dependent implementation for PR_GetRandomNoise()
-** were taken in whole or part from code previously in Netscape's NSS
-** component.
