Function Documentation

init_mphell()

void init_mphell	(	const uint16_t	security_strength,
		const random_type	type,
		const entropy_type	entropy
	)

Initialise MPHELL with security_strength bits of security (for random number only).

Parameters

security_strength	Minimum security strength required in bits for random number
type	Random process to use
entropy	Entropy source to use

mphell_rng()

int mphell_rng	(	void *	param,
		unsigned char *	res,
		size_t	n
	)

Set res to n random bytes.

Parameters

param	For compatibility, set NULL
res	Result byte string
n	Size (in byte) of res

Returns

0 on success, abort the program otherwise.
