=head1 NAME
|
|
|
|
RAND_load_file, RAND_write_file, RAND_file_name - PRNG seed file
|
|
|
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
#include <openssl/rand.h>
|
|
|
|
int RAND_load_file(const char *filename, long max_bytes);
|
|
|
|
int RAND_write_file(const char *filename);
|
|
|
|
const char *RAND_file_name(char *buf, size_t num);
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
RAND_load_file() reads a number of bytes from file B<filename> and
|
|
adds them to the PRNG. If B<max_bytes> is nonnegative,
|
|
up to B<max_bytes> are read;
|
|
if B<max_bytes> is -1, the complete file is read.
|
|
Do not load the same file multiple times unless its contents have
|
|
been updated by RAND_write_file() between reads.
|
|
Also, note that B<filename> should be adequately protected so that an
|
|
attacker cannot replace or examine the contents.
|
|
If B<filename> is not a regular file, then user is considered to be
|
|
responsible for any side effects, e.g. non-anticipated blocking or
|
|
capture of controlling terminal.
|
|
|
|
RAND_write_file() writes a number of random bytes (currently 128) to
|
|
file B<filename> which can be used to initialize the PRNG by calling
|
|
RAND_load_file() in a later session.
|
|
|
|
RAND_file_name() generates a default path for the random seed
|
|
file. B<buf> points to a buffer of size B<num> in which to store the
|
|
filename.
|
|
|
|
On all systems, if the environment variable B<RANDFILE> is set, its
|
|
value will be used as the seed filename.
|
|
Otherwise, the file is called C<.rnd>, found in platform dependent locations:
|
|
|
|
=over 4
|
|
|
|
=item On Windows (in order of preference)
|
|
|
|
%HOME%, %USERPROFILE%, %SYSTEMROOT%, C:\
|
|
|
|
=item On VMS
|
|
|
|
SYS$LOGIN:
|
|
|
|
=item On all other systems
|
|
|
|
$HOME
|
|
|
|
=back
|
|
|
|
If C<$HOME> (on non-Windows and non-VMS system) is not set either, or
|
|
B<num> is too small for the pathname, an error occurs.
|
|
|
|
=head1 RETURN VALUES
|
|
|
|
RAND_load_file() returns the number of bytes read or -1 on error.
|
|
|
|
RAND_write_file() returns the number of bytes written, or -1 if the
|
|
bytes written were generated without appropriate seeding.
|
|
|
|
RAND_file_name() returns a pointer to B<buf> on success, and NULL on
|
|
error.
