|
---|
5 | EVP_RAND-SEED-SRC - The randomness seed source EVP_RAND implementation
|
---|
6 |
|
---|
7 | =head1 DESCRIPTION
|
---|
8 |
|
---|
9 | Support for deterministic random number generator seeding through the
|
---|
10 | B<EVP_RAND> API.
|
---|
11 |
|
---|
12 | The seed sources used are specified at the time OpenSSL is configured for
|
---|
13 | building using the B<--with-rand-seed=> option. By default, operating system
|
---|
14 | randomness sources are used.
|
---|
15 |
|
---|
16 | =head2 Identity
|
---|
17 |
|
---|
18 | "SEED-SRC" is the name for this implementation; it can be used with the
|
---|
19 | EVP_RAND_fetch() function.
|
---|
20 |
|
---|
21 | =head2 Supported parameters
|
---|
22 |
|
---|
23 | The supported parameters are:
|
---|
24 |
|
---|
25 | =over 4
|
---|
26 |
|
---|
27 | =item "state" (B<OSSL_RAND_PARAM_STATE>) <integer>
|
---|
28 |
|
---|
29 | =item "strength" (B<OSSL_RAND_PARAM_STRENGTH>) <unsigned integer>
|
---|
30 |
|
---|
31 | =item "max_request" (B<OSSL_RAND_PARAM_MAX_REQUEST>) <unsigned integer>
|
---|
32 |
|
---|
33 | These parameters work as described in L<EVP_RAND(3)/PARAMETERS>.

37 | =head1 NOTES
|
---|
38 |
|
---|
39 | A context for the seed source can be obtained by calling:
|
---|
40 |
|
---|
41 | EVP_RAND *rand = EVP_RAND_fetch(NULL, "SEED-SRC", NULL);
|
---|
42 | EVP_RAND_CTX *rctx = EVP_RAND_CTX_new(rand);
|
---|
43 |
|
---|
44 | =head1 EXAMPLES
|
---|
45 |
|
---|
46 | EVP_RAND *rand;
|
---|
47 | EVP_RAND_CTX *seed, *rctx;
|
---|
48 | unsigned char bytes[100];
|
---|
49 | OSSL_PARAM params[2], *p = params;
|
---|
50 | unsigned int strength = 128;
|
---|
51 |
|
---|
52 | /* Create a seed source */
|
---|
53 | rand = EVP_RAND_fetch(NULL, "SEED-SRC", NULL);

---|
54 | seed = EVP_RAND_CTX_new(rand, NULL);
|
---|
55 | EVP_RAND_free(rand);
|
---|
56 |
|
---|
57 | /* Feed this into a DRBG */
|
---|
58 | rand = EVP_RAND_fetch(NULL, "CTR-DRBG", NULL);
|
---|
59 | rctx = EVP_RAND_CTX_new(rand, seed);
|
---|
60 | EVP_RAND_free(rand);
|
---|
61 |
|
---|
62 | /* Configure the DRBG */
|
---|
63 | *p++ = OSSL_PARAM_construct_utf8_string(OSSL_DRBG_PARAM_CIPHER,

|
---|
65 | *p = OSSL_PARAM_construct_end();
|
---|
66 | EVP_RAND_instantiate(rctx, strength, 0, NULL, 0, params);
|
---|
67 |
|
---|
68 | EVP_RAND_generate(rctx, bytes, sizeof(bytes), strength, 0, NULL, 0);
