+    <title>Description</title>
+
+    <para><function>sd_id128_randomize()</function> generates a new randomized 128-bit ID and returns it in
+    <parameter>ret</parameter>. Every invocation returns a new randomly generated ID. This uses the
+    <citerefentry
+    project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>getrandom</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+    kernel random number generator.</para>
+
+    <para>Note that <function>sd_id128_randomize()</function> always returns a UUID Variant 1 Version 4
+    compatible ID. It is hence guaranteed that this function will never return the ID consisting of all zero
+    or all one bits (<constant>SD_ID128_NULL</constant>, <constant>SD_ID128_ALLF</constant>).</para>
+
+    <para>For more information about the <literal>sd_id128_t</literal>
+    type, see

+    <title>Return Value</title>
+
+    <para>The call returns 0 on success (in which case
