crypto: qcrypto_random_bytes() now works on windows w/o any other crypto libs
If no crypto library is included in the build, QEMU uses qcrypto_random_bytes() to generate random data. That function tried to open /dev/urandom or /dev/random and if opening both files failed it errored out. Those files obviously do not exist on windows, so there the code uses CryptGenRandom(). Furthermore there was some refactoring and a new function qcrypto_random_init() was introduced. If a proper crypto library (gnutls or libgcrypt) is included in the build, this function does nothing. If neither is included it initializes the (platform specific) handles that are used by qcrypto_random_bytes(). Either: * a handle to /dev/urandom | /dev/random on unix like systems * a handle to a cryptographic service provider on windows Signed-off-by: Geert Martin Ijewski <gm.ijewski@web.de> Signed-off-by: Daniel P.
