=head1 NAME
|
||||
|
||||
RAND_DRBG_get0_master,
|
||||
RAND_DRBG_get0_public,
|

RAND_DRBG_get0_private
|

- get access to the global RAND_DRBG instances
|

|
||||
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
||||
|
||||
#include <openssl/rand_drbg.h>
|
||||
|
||||
RAND_DRBG *RAND_DRBG_get0_master(void);
|
||||
RAND_DRBG *RAND_DRBG_get0_public(void);
|
||||
RAND_DRBG *RAND_DRBG_get0_private(void);
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=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
