19 * struct rng_alg - random number generator definition
21 * @generate: The function defined by this variable obtains a
22 * random number. The random number generator transform
23 * must generate the random number out of the context
24 * provided with this call, plus any additional data
25 * if provided to the call.
26 * @seed: Seed or reseed the random number generator. With the
27 * invocation of this function call, the random number
28 * generator shall become ready for generation. If the
29 * random number generator requires a seed for setting
30 * up a new state, the seed must be provided by the
31 * consumer while invoking this function. The required
32 * size of the seed is defined with @seedsize .
33 * @set_ent: Set entropy that would otherwise be obtained from
34 * entropy source. Internal use only.
35 * @seedsize: The seed size required for a random number generator
36 * initialization defined with this variable. Some
37 * random number generators does not require a seed
38 * as the seeding is implemented internally without
39 * the need of support by the consumer. In this case,
40 * the seed size is set to zero.
41 * @base: Common crypto API algorithm data structure.
