    dnf installed successfully.
    Please run 'dnf update' to update packages to the latest level.


    I am getting below error while running dnf commands.

    ERROR
    root@aixlab:/tmp/rsyslog/test# /opt/freeware/bin/dnf update
    Fatal Python error: _Py_HashRandomization_Init: failed to get random numbers to initialize Python

    Please suggest how to resolve the issue?

    Thanks
    Rizwan

    Hi Rizwan,

    Are you able to run 32-bit python3 fine (/opt/freeware/bin/python3_32) ?

    Your machine would be missing /dev/urandom device.

    # mv /dev/urandom /dev/urandom_bak

    Hi SANGAMESH

    I have these devices already.
    :/home/root# ls -l /dev/*random

    Hi Sangamesh
    I even tried removing and recreating /dev/random and /dev/urandom deivices but no luck.

    Try running /opt/freeware/bin/python3_32 with truss and verify if it still fails due to /dev/urandom.

    truss /opt/freeware/bin/python3_32

    Hi Rizwan,

    As we can see there is some issue with opening the /dev/urandom device still.

    kopen("/dev/urandom", 0440000000) Err#22 EINVAL

    Are you able to run rpm command without any issues ?
    For example "rpm -qa"

    Also, may be you can try sample program to see if you get the same error.

    #include <fcntl.h>
    #include <stdio.h>
    #include <errno.h>
    int main()
    {
    if (open("/dev/urandom", O_RDONLY) == -1)
    printf("%s\n", strerror(errno));
    }

    Hi Rizwan,

    Not sure if it's specific to AIX version.
    But second argument to kopen seems to something wrong in this case.
    kopen("/dev/urandom", 0440000000) Err#22 EINVAL

    I will check this and let you know.

    This issue seems to be specific to AIX 7.1 TL04 and SPs.
    I didn't see this issue in TL3 & TL5.
    Please also have look at this bug https://bugs.python.org/issue36843

    FYI

    I suspect this is the resolving APAR for the urandom errors for Python

    https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/apar/IV90804

    IV90804: OPENING A FILE IN AFS WITH O_CLOEXEC FAILS WITH AN EINVAL ERROR APPLIES TO AIX 7100-04 17/04/14 PTF PECHANGE

    A file open with O_CLOEXEC flag in file systems not
supporting 64-bit open flag fails with an EINVAL error.

AFS and JFS, to name a few, are apparently affected with
IV69062/IV73732 64-BIT SUPPORT FOR OPEN FLAGS.
Problem summary
****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED:
* Systems running the 7100-04 Technology Level with
* any of the following filesets at or between the given levels:

****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:

    I can confirm, the  7100-04-04-1717 SP Update, which includes the following 
    IV90804: OPENING A FILE IN AFS WITH O_CLOEXEC FAILS WITH AN EINVAL ERROR APPLIES TO AIX 7100-04 17/04/14 

    Resolved the following error for my customer:


    ERROR
    # /opt/freeware/bin/dnf update
    Fatal Python error: _Py_HashRandomization_Init: failed to get random numbers to initialize Python

    Thank you!!!! Thank you!!!! Thank you a million times over. The author should update his webpage to say install the 7.1.4.5-XXX updates before running ./dnf update.
