Nicolas Pitre	2dca1af448	simple random data generator for tests Reliance on /dev/urandom produces test vectors that are, well, random. This can cause problems impossible to track down when the data is different from one test invokation to another. The goal is not to have random data to test, but rather to have a convenient way to create sets of large files with non compressible and non deltifiable data in a reproducible way.

simple random data generator for tests

Reliance on /dev/urandom produces test vectors that are, well, random.
This can cause problems impossible to track down when the data is
different from one test invokation to another.

The goal is not to have random data to test, but rather to have a
convenient way to create sets of large files with non compressible and
non deltifiable data in a reproducible way.
