=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The default RAND API implementation (RAND_OpenSSL()) utilizes three
|
||
|
|
shared DRBG instances which are accessed via the RAND API:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The <public> and <private> DRBG are thread-local instances, which are used
|
||
|
|
by RAND_bytes() and RAND_priv_bytes(), respectively.
|
||
|
|
The <master> DRBG is a global instance, which is not intended to be used
|
||
|
|
directly, but is used internally to reseed the other two instances.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
These functions here provide access to the shared DRBG instances.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
=head1 RETURN VALUES
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
RAND_DRBG_get0_master() returns a pointer to the <master> DRBG instance.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
RAND_DRBG_get0_public() returns a pointer to the <public> DRBG instance.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
RAND_DRBG_get0_private() returns a pointer to the <private> DRBG instance.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
=head1 NOTES
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It is not thread-safe to access the <master> DRBG instance.
|
||
|
|
The <public> and <private> DRBG instance can be accessed safely, because
|
||
|
|
they are thread-local. Note however, that changes to these two instances
|
||
|
|
apply only to the current thread.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For that reason it is recommended not to change the settings of these
|
||
|
|
three instances directly.
|
||
|
|
Instead, an application should change the default settings for new DRBG instances
|
||
|
|
at initialization time, before creating additional threads.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
During initialization, it is possible to change the reseed interval
|
||
|
|
and reseed time interval.
|
||
|
|
It is also possible to exchange the reseeding callbacks entirely.
|
||
|

=head1 HISTORY
