58 SILC SilcRng State context.
60 This object is used by the random number generator to provide
61 variable points where the actual random number is fetched from
62 the random pool. This provides that the data is not fetched always
63 from the same point of the pool. Short description of the fields
69 The index for the random pool buffer. Lowest and current
72 SilcRngStateContext *next
74 Pointer to the next state. If this is the last state this
75 will point to the first state thus providing circular list.

85 SILC Random Number Generator object.
87 This object holds random pool which is used to generate the random
88 numbers used by various routines needing cryptographically strong
89 random numbers. Following short descriptions of the fields.
93 The random pool. This buffer holds the random data. This is
94 frequently stirred thus providing ever changing randomnes.
98 Key used in stirring the random pool. The pool is encrypted
99 with SHA1 hash function in CFB (Cipher Feedback) mode.
101 SilcSilcRngState state
103 State object that is used to get the next position for the
104 random pool. This position is used to fetch data from pool
105 or to save the data to the pool. The state changes everytime
110 Hash object (SHA1) used to make the CFB encryption to the
111 random pool. This is allocated when RNG object is allocated and
112 free'd when RNG object is free'd.
116 Threshold to indicate when it is required to acquire more
117 noise from the environment. More soft noise is acquired after
118 64 bits of output and hard noise every 160 bits of output.
