[edk2-devel] NetworkPkg: NetRandomInitSeed random seed generation

[Arti Gupta via groups.io]

Hello,
While reviewing the code for NetRandomInitSeed in the DDxeNetLib, I see that it uses the time of day for random seed generation instead of something like RDRAND. Is there a reason for NetRandomInitSeed to do it this way? Also, there is no error status checking in the code if GetTime fails.
Thanks,
Arti
