.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
This documentation is primarily aimed at provider authors. See \fBprovider\fR\|(7)
for further information.
.PP
The \s-1RAND\s0 operation enables providers to implement random number generation
algorithms and random number sources and make
them available to applications via the \s-1API\s0 function \s-1\fBEVP_RAND\s0\fR\|(3).
.SS "Context Management Functions"
.IX Subsection "Context Management Functions"
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_rand_newctx()\fR should create and return a pointer to a provider side
structure for holding context information during a rand operation.
A pointer to this context will be passed back in a number of the other rand
operation function calls.
The parameter \fIprovctx\fR is the provider context generated during provider
initialisation (see \fBprovider\fR\|(7)).
The parameter \fIparent\fR specifies another rand instance to be used for
seeding purposes.  If \s-1NULL\s0 and the specific instance supports it, the
operating system will be used for seeding.
The parameter \fIparent_calls\fR points to the dispatch table for \fIparent\fR.
Thus, the parent need not be from the same provider as the new instance.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_rand_freectx()\fR is passed a pointer to the provider side rand context in
the \fImctx\fR parameter.
If it receives \s-1NULL\s0 as \fIctx\fR value, it should not do anything other than
return.
This function should free any resources associated with that context.
.SS "Random Number Generator Functions: \s-1NIST\s0"
.IX Subsection "Random Number Generator Functions: NIST"
These functions correspond to those defined in \s-1NIST SP 800\-90A\s0 and \s-1SP 800\-90C.\s0
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_rand_instantiate()\fR is used to instantiate the \s-1DRBG\s0 \fIctx\fR at a requested
security \fIstrength\fR.  In addition, \fIprediction_resistance\fR can be requested.
Additional input \fIaddin\fR of length \fIaddin_len\fR bytes can optionally
be provided.  The parameters specified in \fIparams\fR configure the \s-1DRBG\s0 and these
should be processed before instantiation.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_rand_uninstantiate()\fR is used to uninstantiate the \s-1DRBG\s0 \fIctx\fR.  After being
uninstantiated, a \s-1DRBG\s0 is unable to produce output until it is instantiated
anew.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_rand_generate()\fR is used to generate random bytes from the \s-1DRBG\s0 \fIctx\fR.
It will generate \fIoutlen\fR bytes placing them into the buffer pointed to by
\&\fIout\fR.  The generated bytes will meet the specified security \fIstrength\fR and,
if \fIprediction_resistance\fR is true, the bytes will be produced after reseeding
from a live entropy source.  Additional input \fIaddin\fR of length \fIaddin_len\fR
bytes can optionally be provided.
.SS "Random Number Generator Functions: Additional"
.IX Subsection "Random Number Generator Functions: Additional"
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_rand_nonce()\fR is used to generate a nonce of the given \fIstrength\fR with a
length from \fImin_noncelen\fR to \fImax_noncelen\fR. If the output buffer \fIout\fR is
\&\s-1NULL,\s0 the length of the nonce should be returned.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_rand_get_seed()\fR is used by deterministic generators to obtain their
seeding material from their parent.  The seed bytes will meet the specified
security level of \fIentropy\fR bits and there will be between \fImin_len\fR
and \fImax_len\fR inclusive bytes in total.  If \fIprediction_resistance\fR is
true, the bytes will be produced from a live entropy source.  Additional
input \fIaddin\fR of length \fIaddin_len\fR bytes can optionally be provided.
A pointer to the seed material is returned in \fI*buffer\fR and this must be
freed by a later call to \fBOSSL_FUNC_rand_clear_seed()\fR.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_rand_clear_seed()\fR frees a seed \fIbuffer\fR of length \fIb_len\fR bytes
which was previously allocated by \fBOSSL_FUNC_rand_get_seed()\fR.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_rand_verify_zeroization()\fR is used to determine if the internal state of the
\&\s-1DRBG\s0 is zero.  This capability is mandated by \s-1NIST\s0 as part of the self
tests, it is unlikely to be useful in other circumstances.
.SS "Context Locking"
.IX Subsection "Context Locking"
When DRBGs are used by multiple threads, there must be locking employed to
ensure their proper operation.  Because locking introduces an overhead, it
is disabled by default.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_rand_enable_locking()\fR allows locking to be turned on for a \s-1DRBG\s0 and all of
its parent DRBGs.  From this call onwards, the \s-1DRBG\s0 can be used in a thread
safe manner.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_rand_lock()\fR is used to lock a \s-1DRBG.\s0  Once locked, exclusive access
is guaranteed.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_rand_unlock()\fR is used to unlock a \s-1DRBG.\s0
.SS "Rand Parameters"
.IX Subsection "Rand Parameters"
See \s-1\fBOSSL_PARAM\s0\fR\|(3) for further details on the parameters structure used by
these functions.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_rand_get_params()\fR gets details of parameter values associated with the
provider algorithm and stores them in \fIparams\fR.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_rand_set_ctx_params()\fR sets rand parameters associated with the given
provider side rand context \fIctx\fR to \fIparams\fR.
Any parameter settings are additional to any that were previously set.
Passing \s-1NULL\s0 for \fIparams\fR should return true.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_rand_get_ctx_params()\fR gets details of currently set parameter values
associated with the given provider side rand context \fIctx\fR and stores them
in \fIparams\fR.
Passing \s-1NULL\s0 for \fIparams\fR should return true.
.PP
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_rand_gettable_params()\fR, \fBOSSL_FUNC_rand_gettable_ctx_params()\fR,
and \fBOSSL_FUNC_rand_settable_ctx_params()\fR all return constant \s-1\fBOSSL_PARAM\s0\fR\|(3)
arrays as descriptors of the parameters that \fBOSSL_FUNC_rand_get_params()\fR,
\&\fBOSSL_FUNC_rand_get_ctx_params()\fR, and \fBOSSL_FUNC_rand_set_ctx_params()\fR
can handle, respectively.  \fBOSSL_FUNC_rand_gettable_ctx_params()\fR
and \fBOSSL_FUNC_rand_settable_ctx_params()\fR will return the parameters
associated with the provider side context \fIctx\fR in its current state
if it is not \s-1NULL.\s0  Otherwise, they return the parameters associated
with the provider side algorithm \fIprovctx\fR.
.PP

parameters are relevant to, or are understood by all rands:
