From 2bd25290f3841c135342737c01a7e4336b72b271 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Fu Siyuan Date: Fri, 7 Aug 2015 03:22:10 +0000 Subject: MdeModulePkg: Use monotonic count to initialize the NetLib random seed. NetRandomInitSeed() function use current time to initialize the random seed, while in some platform the time service is not accuracy that make the random seed collision. This patch add the monotonic count to the seed to avoid this.
