The real question is WTF is the code doing? The '& ~7u' clears the bottom 3 bits. The '- 1' then sets the bottom 3 bits and decrements the (random) high bits. So is the same as get_random_u32() | 7. But I bet the coder had something else in mind. =09David - Registered Address Lakeside, Bramley Road, Mount Farm, Milton Keynes, MK1 1= PT, UK Registration No: 1397386 (Wales)
